About Asamushi Onsen Tsubakikan

"Asamushi Onsen Tsubakikan" is a long-established hot spring ryokan in Asamushi Onsen in Aomori City, Aomori Prefecture, with a history spanning more than 400 years. It is also known as an inn associated with the world-renowned woodblock print artist Shiko Munakata, and the building is lined with numerous works of art. The baths are fed by "Moto-yu," drawn from nine private hot spring sources on the property, and offered as 100% pure free-flowing spring water with no additional heating or watering down. The large bath is equipped with a newly installed authentic dry sauna with a pleasant wood aroma and a cold plunge bath that is deep and easy to soak in, delivering a truly exceptional relaxation experience together with its famous spring waters.

Large bath

A spacious large bath that offers hot spring water flowing from nine private sources as a luxurious free-flowing spring all night long with no added heating or water. The indoor bath, also equipped with a reclining bath and waterfall bath, is filled with the warmth of Hiba wood, and abundant water that has soothed people for many years pours from the spout. The water is colorless, transparent, and gentle, a simple spring with no peculiarities, prized for its skin-moisturizing beauty benefits and excellent heat-retaining effect.

Open-air bath

An open-air bath extending beyond the large bath, with the tranquil atmosphere of a Japanese garden. Pure 100% private spring water is poured in with no added water or heating, allowing you to enjoy the hot water at a relaxed pace while feeling the clear air and gentle breeze of Hakkoda on your skin. At night you can admire a sky full of stars, and in winter a beautiful snowy landscape, bringing the richness of the changing seasons close at hand and creating superb relaxation that makes you forget the bustle of everyday life.

Family bath

A private bath for families and groups that combines the traditions of a long-established inn with a sense of privacy. Like the large bath, you can lavishly enjoy freshly drawn natural hot spring water from nine private sources as a free-flowing spring. It is a relaxing shared time where you can enjoy conversation with one another while being wrapped in smooth hot water, without worrying about anyone else's gaze. The joy of having a famous beauty bath all to yourself awaits here.

SaunaSAUNA

01SAUNA

Dry sauna

Men'sWomen's

A beautiful sauna room made with Aomori Hiba, filled with a refreshing wood aroma. There is no TV, and the space is lit by calm, subdued lighting, with only the pleasant sound of the hot spring water flowing outside echoing through the room. Its crisp, comfortable heat wraps around the whole body and quickly encourages a strong sweat in this fully authentic setup.

Cold BathCOLD BATH

01COLD BATH

Cold plunge bath

Men'sWomen's

A cold plunge bath located right near the sauna room, with a solid depth reaching about thigh level. Its defining feature is a gentle, soft coolness that slowly seeps into the skin, making it comfortable even for those who do not like sudden temperature changes and allowing the body to sink in for longer. Fresh water is constantly flowing in, gently cooling down the heated body in a quiet corner of the large bath. After getting in, we recommend an outdoor air bath on the totonou chairs set up in the open-air bath area.
