Ishikawa Komatsu City
A gourmet inn where the stress melts away in a vast 25,000-tsubo Japanese garden and a sulfate spring fed by its own source
Manten no Tsuji no Ya is an onsen inn in Komatsu, Ishikawa Prefecture. Surrounded by an expansive 25,000-tsubo strolling garden, it invites guests to take in the beauty of nature through all five senses in every season. The main bathhouse draws on its own source, renowned for its long history since the onsen first opened and known for its 100% purity, with a variety of baths, including a rustic open-air bath, ceramic urn baths, and hot-water cascades. One corner of the bathing area has a sauna where you can reset body and mind, along with a cold plunge to wash away your sweat. Cooling off in the open air amid the crisp air is exceptionally refreshing. This blissful inn offers a peaceful escape from the everyday, with a main bathhouse overlooking a grand Kutani-yaki mural, a warm-stone room where you can sweat at your own pace, and exquisite kaiseki cuisine.

The main bathhouse draws water from its own source, which wells up after a long journey from sacred Mount Hakusan. The colorless, transparent sulfate spring is 100% pure and rich in naturally occurring beneficial components, with a delicate, gentle feel on the skin. Soak in the baths while admiring a vividly colored mural created by a master of Kutani-yaki. In the open-air bath, savor exceptional relaxation surrounded by Awazu’s clear air and the scents of nature.

A garden bathhouse where you can enjoy water from the inn’s own source in a variety of baths. Options include an open-air bath with a wonderfully open feel, private-feeling ceramic urn baths, seated hot-water cascades with a pleasant massage, and reclining baths. Wander among the baths across the spacious grounds and fully enjoy the warming benefits of the sulfate spring while taking in the beauty of nature as it changes with the seasons.

Private open-air baths on the balconies of select suites and Japanese-modern twin rooms. Though they are not filled with natural onsen water, guests can enjoy a soak whenever they like, as often as they like, in a private space undisturbed by others. A special feature for savoring a peaceful moment to the fullest while feeling the breath of nature in every season.

Located near the sauna, this cold plunge is a refreshing way to cool down after sitting in the heat. It has a deep tub and smooth-feeling water that envelops the whole body.

A warm-stone room adjoining Hanamawari-yu. Far-infrared rays from the heated stones gently carry warmth deep into the body.
