9,6/10 Exceptional - Based on 21 reviews
Hidden in the heart of Yuzawa’s lush mountains, Yukemuri no Yado Inazumi Onsen embodies the quintessence of Japanese serenity. The atmosphere is imbued with a gentle harmony, where every detail, from the traditional sliding doors to the open-air hot spring baths, invites tranquility. This ryokan in Yuzawa offers a true wellness sanctuary with its invigorating sauna, soothing public baths, and onsens providing breathtaking views of a landscape that changes with the seasons.
Breathe in the purity of elegantly designed rooms, where tradition and modern comfort meet delicately. The Japanese-style rooms with their tatamis and futons, or those with private open-air baths, offer intimate retreats for the body and mind. Each accommodation is designed to ensure unparalleled comfort, with air conditioning, a fully equipped bathroom, and views of the surrounding nature inviting contemplation.
The culinary journey begins in the establishment’s restaurants, 琵琶 and 伊吹, where exquisite Japanese flavors are served for breakfast and dinner. For gourmet explorers, nearby restaurants such as うまい一丸鮨 湯沢店 further enrich the experience with succulent local specialties. Whether on-site or nearby, each meal becomes a tribute to the art of Japanese gastronomy.
