A premier hidden hot spring inn in Tohoku, standing at 1,200 m, with 100% pure milky-white free-flowing natural spring baths
Fukushima Fukushima City
"Noji Onsen Hotel" is a secluded one-building inn with superb hot springs, representative of Tohoku, located on the cloud tops at an elevation of 1,200 meters on Washikurayama in Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture. Its pride and joy is a 100% pure free-flowing natural spring bath with no added water, no heating, and no circulation. When exposed to the air, the water turns into a beautiful milky-white cloudy bath. This gentle, smooth simple sulfur spring is renowned for its excellent benefits for atopic dermatitis, chronic eczema, and everyday stress. Inside the building are six distinct baths, including the all-hinoki "Senjyu no Yu" and "Tengu no Yu," where you can move between the indoor bath and the open-air bath without ever leaving the water. With gender rotation every 3 hours, you can enjoy luxurious hot-spring hopping around the clock. The women-only large bath is also equipped with a dry sauna, leading you to a refreshing outdoor air bath above the clouds with a view of the sea of clouds.
TypeNatural Hot Spring
The traditional Senjyu no Yu is built entirely of beautiful, solid hinoki wood and has a dignified presence (gender rotation every 3 hours). The bath is divided into three sections, each set to a different temperature—hot, moderate, and lukewarm—so you can relax in the water at your own pace according to how you feel. A superb space filled with freshly drawn 100% pure water and the gentle scent of milky-white sulfur.
TypeNatural Hot Spring
Tengu no Yu allows you to move from the indoor bath to the open-air bath without ever leaving the water (gender rotation every 3 hours; the tubs are made with ancient hinoki). Even in the cold winter months, you can transition gently to an open-air soak while feeling the outside air, without cooling off after the bath. This popular bath space is full of playful charm and warmth.
TypeNatural Hot Spring
A spacious open-air bath with outstanding openness, where you soak while gazing up at the majestic nature of Kimenzan right before your eyes (gender rotation every 3 hours). Immerse yourself at leisure in the 100% free-flowing cloudy water with no added water or heating, and fully experience the rich beauty of the cloud-top seasons, from fresh spring greenery, summer starry skies, and autumn leaves blazing with color to the breathtaking snow-view bathing of winter.
