Natural Hot Springs in the Mountains ~ Bayan Hot Spring Inn

Source / Monocle Editorial Department

The hot spring pools face the national park reserve, surrounded by misty mountains and lush greenery, creating a refreshingly beautiful scene. Especially since the mountain opposite has no walking trails, there’s no worry about being spied on, so the inn has generously designed the pools as semi-open-air. Soaking in the baths, you’re greeted by sweeping views of the green mountains and can feel the cool mountain breezes—a truly serene atmosphere.

The kaiseki plating is so exquisite it’s almost too beautiful to eat, featuring fresh seafood from nearby fishing ports. The flavors are sweet and delicious, rivaling those of Japanese inns. The inn boasts abundant natural springs, so whether in the public pools or private rooms, 100% natural hot spring water is provided, with no recycling.
