Yamamizuki

Yamamizuki (山あいの宿) is considered one of Japan’s most scenic hot spring retreats, celebrated for its breathtaking riverside baths set deep in nature. Nestled beside a clear mountain stream, the outdoor rotenburo immerses guests in a serene environment where the sound of flowing water and rustling leaves replaces the noise of everyday life. Surrounded by dense forest and misty mountain air, the experience feels almost otherworldly—inviting deep relaxation and a sense of connection with the natural world.

In addition to its renowned outdoor bath, Yamamizuki also offers elegant indoor bathing facilities, thoughtfully designed for warmth, comfort, and privacy. Each bath area is gender-separated, ensuring a calm and respectful atmosphere for all guests. Whether you're soaking beneath the open sky or unwinding in a quiet wooden bathhouse, Yamamizuki offers a perfect balance of luxury, tradition, and nature. It remains a top choice for hot spring enthusiasts seeking an authentic and unforgettable onsen experience in Japan.
