A beauty bath embraced by the spectacular views of Yutaniwan, with two gender-separated baths and saunas colored by the legend of Yang Guifei

Yamaguchi Nagato City

An onsen hotel on a hill overlooking Yutaniwan in Nagato City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Nagato City is said to preserve a legend that the famed Chinese beauty Yang Guifei fled the An Lushan Rebellion and washed ashore here, and the two large bathing areas in the building are named after that legend: "Yang Guifei no Yu" and "Xuanzong no Yu." The pH 9.8 highly alkaline simple hot spring is known for its silky, smooth water, and the open-air bath, where guests can soak while gazing at the sea and sky beyond the steam and the ever-changing scenery of Yutaniwan, is the property’s greatest attraction.

Hot Spring & Bath Information

TypeNatural Hot Spring

In the open-air bath overlooking Yutaniwan, you can fully enjoy the silky hot spring water while taking in the spectacular view of the sea and sky stretching out before you. The smooth feel of this pH 9.8 highly alkaline simple hot spring creates a refined bathing experience worthy of its reputation as a beauty bath, which ranked first in the skin-beautifying category of the Hot Spring General Election. At dusk, soaking while watching the sunset sink into Yutaniwan offers a spectacular experience unique to this inn that draws visitors in.

Xuanzong no Yu features an electric bath said to help relieve lower back pain, while Yang Guifei no Yu has an indoor bath made with natural minerals recommended for those concerned about lower back pain or stiff shoulders.
