About Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Gero Honkan
"Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Gero Honkan" is a large hot spring hotel in Gero City, Gifu Prefecture. Its alkaline simple spring water, drawn from Gero no Yu, one of Japan’s Three Famous Springs, is known for its smooth, silky texture like a skincare lotion. The spacious public bath and open-air bath created in the 2024 renovation offer sweeping views of the Gero townscape and the Hida mountains below. A dry sauna where you can work up a thorough sweat and a refreshingly cold cold plunge bath are also available, making it easy to enjoy a premium hot spring experience along with a rejuvenating break. The hotel also features a premium lounge with free drinks including alcohol and a private open-air bath in the guest rooms where you can enjoy the famous spring at your own pace, offering a higher-grade stay away from everyday life.
