Asanoya

Enjoy a castle-like inn with a low-temperature geothermal sauna fed by private hot spring sources and beauty-enhancing waters poured into every room

Hyogo Shinonsen Town

"Asanoya" is a long-established ryokan in Yumura Onsen in Shinonsen Town, Mikata District, Hyogo Prefecture. It owns four abundant private hot spring sources and provides generously flowing natural hot spring water throughout the large baths, open-air baths, and even the baths and washbasins in every guest room. Its biggest highlight is Yumechiyo-dō, a low-temperature geothermal sauna located underground, down from the open-air bath. Reviving an underground space that was once used as a drying room, it lets you enjoy gentle yet remarkably abundant perspiration without straining your body, thanks to the geothermal heat of the hot spring and the steam filling the space. This is a refined Japanese-style ryokan where heartfelt hospitality lives on.

A very rare low-temperature geothermal sauna that makes use of the natural energy of the hot spring, set underground below the open-air bath area. Named by the screenwriter of the film Yumechiyo Nikki, this space lets you spend time leisurely while wrapped in comforting warmth. Because the room is filled with hot spring heat and steam, there is no stuffiness or drying damage to the skin and hair, and it produces astonishingly abundant perspiration. It is a gentle, moisture-rich, superb steam sauna experience.
