About Izutsuya

"Yumura Onsen Kasenkyo Izutsuya" is a long-established inn with a proud history, founded in the Genroku era 15, in Shinonsen Town, Mikata District, Hyogo Prefecture. It owns its own spring, preserved since the early Edo period, and guests can enjoy the abundant hot spring water to their heart's content throughout the building. Highlights include the dramatic indoor bath on the underground second floor, "Choju Oiwa Rotenburo," with its beautiful massive rock walls, and the seventh-floor "Tembou Hinoki Buro," which overlooks Yumura's magnificent natural scenery. The appeal lies in a wide range of hot spring experiences. Hot spring water is also fed into the baths and wash areas of all guest rooms, allowing for luxurious in-room bathing, and the property also offers a healing bedrock bath that combines mist.
