The baths are fed with pristine hot spring waters that gush out from the foot of the Japanese Alps. The waters imbue bathers with their rich natural benefits.

The irori is a sunken hearth that was once found in Japanese homes. The crackling of burning coal and steam rising from kamado stoves provide a sense of comforting warmth to those who sit by the irori.

For dinner, there are playful dishes such as a fluffy snow pot of wata-ame and a pot of eel from the mountains.
