The onsen and the spa
The onsen draws a sodium and calcium chloride spring into indoor and open-air pools surrounded by the forest, with cold plunges and saunas, among them a sauna of fragrant cypress, and a lounge in the manner of a tea house for a cold drink after. Three private onsen can be reserved, in Japanese, Balinese and Chinese styles, and a relaxation salon offers aroma massage.

the setting
Kinosaki Onsen
Kinosaki is the onsen town of willows and stone bridges on the Sea of Japan coast of Hyogo, and the ryokan stands on its edge, where the town meets the mountain forest. The lobby lounge looks onto the green and a waterfall, and a trail leads up into the Japanese garden.
A trail winds through the forest garden, and below lies the town, with its willow canal and the seven public onsen along it.
