About Akō Onsen Ginpasō

Akō Onsen Zekkei Rotenburo no Yado Ginpasō is a luxury hot spring ryokan in Misaki, Akō City, Hyogo Prefecture, boasting one of Kansai’s most spectacular views. Its biggest attraction is the infinity-style, 100% source-fed open-air baths, Tenkai no Yu and Gankai no Yu, which blend seamlessly with the Seto Inland Sea across 180 degrees. The large public bath is equipped with an authentic Bonaparm-style sauna, where auto löyly is activated, allowing you to sweat efficiently and refreshingly amid superb steam and a comfortably humid atmosphere. After cooling off in the compact cold bath set in the open-air area, you can enjoy an exquisite outdoor air bath while taking in the view and feeling the gentle Seto Inland Sea sea breeze over your whole body.

Akō Onsen (Yomigaeri no Yu)

Akō Onsen is recognized in the '100 Famous Hot Springs' and as a medicinal spring under the Hot Springs Act, and contains an exceptionally rich concentration of minerals and salt. The open-air bath, provided as a 100% source-fed bath, offers an overwhelming sense of openness, as if it were seamlessly connected to the horizon of the Seto Inland Sea when you soak in it. The salt gently coats the skin, providing outstanding warmth retention and moisturizing effects, and even after you get out of the bath, your whole body remains warm and beautifully hydrated, allowing you to enjoy an exquisite bathing experience.

About every 20 minutes, water is automatically poured onto the sauna stones, and pleasantly warm, moderately moist steam gently fills the room. There is no stifling feeling at all, and you can enjoy healthy, deep-from-within sweating while keeping physical strain to a minimum. The scent of wood enhances the quiet, relaxing atmosphere even further.
