The Secrets of Onsen

Visiting the Chichibu Pilgrimage Sites in the ONSEN CHICHIBU, Vol.8

【Enjoy two bathtubs all to yourself. Experience the ultimate bathing experience, where panoramic views and ceramics come together.】

It is located quite close to Hosho-ji Temple (Chichibu Pilgrimage Site No. 32).
Nestled in the natural surroundings of Ogano, “Miyamoto no Yu” is beloved as a “hidden retreat for relaxation known only to those in the know.”

━━━ ♨️ Our Commitment to Onsen ━━━
Our pride and joy is this luxurious setup—rare even nationwide—where you can enjoy two bathtubs simultaneously in a single private space.
The alkaline sulfur mineral spring (Hannya-no-Yu) gently soothes away the fatigue of daily life right down to your core.

• Ceramic Open-Air Bath & Panoramic Bath: Two baths with distinct atmospheres. There’s no need to choose between them—the entire space is yours to enjoy privately.
• The Peace of Mind of Dual Wash Areas: Equipped with two separate wash areas. This thoughtful design ensures that even when visiting with family or friends, you can wash up smoothly without having to wait your turn.
• Hannya-no-Yu: A renowned hot spring said to be effective for stiff shoulders and lower back pain. The silky-smooth texture of the water moisturizes your skin and brings a sense of calm.

Forget the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy your own special bathing experience to your heart’s content.

━ 🌿 A soothing space enveloped in silence ━
The view of Chichibu from the panoramic bath reveals the changing faces of the four seasons, offering a fresh sense of wonder with every visit.
The spacious, open atmosphere unique to a private bath is truly a treat for yourself.
Switch off from your daily routine and let yourself be soothed by Chichibu’s abundant nature and the aroma of its historic, renowned hot springs.

━━ 🥾 Refresh Yourself Between Visits to the Chichibu Fudasho Pilgrimage ━━
With excellent access from Hosho-ji Temple (Chichibu Pilgrimage Site No. 32), this is the perfect place to stop and rest after a day of collecting temple stamps or hiking.
Why not rejuvenate your tired body in our “two famous hot springs” and recharge your energy for tomorrow?

In addition to overnight stays, we also offer private baths for day visitors (11:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m.).
Our entire staff sincerely looks forward to welcoming you.
