About Moriaki Ryokan Ikaho Onsen

"Moriaki Ryokan Ikaho Onsen" is a historic long-established inn in Shibukawa City, Gunma Prefecture, founded in 1868, the first year of the Meiji era. Conveniently located just a 3-minute walk from the Ikaho Stone Steps Street, it is a charming inn that was once beloved by the poet Noguchi Ujo. The ryokan's greatest pride is that all of its baths, including the open-air bath Ujo no Yu, the large public bath Jizo no Yu, the private baths, and the guest rooms with onsen, use the famous Ikaho Golden Spring water as free-flowing natural hot spring water. The baths are drained and thoroughly cleaned every day, allowing guests to fully savor a fresh, luxurious, top-quality hot spring experience at all times.

Open-Air Bath Ujo no Yu

A luxurious open-air bath where you can enjoy the traditional Golden Spring water as 100% free-flowing natural hot spring water. The bath is a gently soft brown, cloudy hot spring unique to Ikaho, and after bathing, your body warms deeply from the core and stays warm for a long time. Depending on the time of day, the baths are available for men and women alternately, and the hinoki cypress tub offers sweeping views of the beautiful mountains of Joshu. Together with the fresh air of nature, you can spend an exceptional moment surrounded by the blessings of a famed hot spring passed down since the Manyo era.
