About HOTEL Seaside Shimabara
"HOTEL Seaside Shimabara" is a hot spring resort hotel in Shimabara City, Nagasaki Prefecture. It features two main bath areas, the new building's observatory bath and the main building's yuba-dokoro, each equipped with a dry sauna and a cold plunge bath. Day-use bathing is available from early morning until night. Guests can enjoy one of Japan's highest-concentration carbonated springs and the gentle Shimabara Onsen, along with two separate natural springs, all while taking in the scenery of Ariake Sea. From the open-air bath where you can feel the sea breeze to the tubs where carbon dioxide bubbles cling to your skin, you can enjoy an exceptional time surrounded by the nature of the Water City of Shimabara.
Hot SpringONSEN
New Building Observatory Bath
A spacious observatory bath with an extraordinary sense of openness and sweeping views of Ariake Sea and the mountains of Kumamoto across the bay. You can take in the dramatic changing scenery of the sea and sky as time passes. The beauty at sunrise is especially remarkable, and while you immerse yourself in the gentle Shimabara Onsen, you can savor an elegant moment that makes you forget everyday life.
Main Building Yuba-dokoro
A relaxing bathing area with an open-air bath and a spacious indoor bath. You can enjoy two tubs: the gentle Shimabara Onsen and the rare high-concentration carbonated spring, whose strength ranks among the highest in Japan. While feeling the fresh sea breeze, the fine carbonated bubbles envelop your whole body and gently ease away both mental and physical fatigue.
Sauna & Cold BathSAUNA & COLD BATH
Men's Dry sauna
The dry sauna in the new building's observatory bath and the main building's yuba-dokoro is a quiet place where you can slowly work up a pleasant sweat in a room filled with steady heat. Let your warmed body be embraced by the cold water nearby and move into a crisp, refreshing feeling. If you use the rare high-concentration carbonated spring in place of a cold plunge bath, the special cooldown surrounded by tiny carbonated bubbles will gently unwind your travel fatigue from deep within.
