About Ginka, Kinosaki Maruyama River Onsen

"Ginka, Kinosaki Maruyama River Onsen" is a hot spring ryokan in Toyooka, Hyogo Prefecture. Standing on the banks of the gently flowing Maruyama River, it is an adults-only hideaway with guest rooms spread across a vast property. The large public bath consists of an open-air bath arranged as if it were connected to the river and a spacious indoor bath where you can stretch out your body. Soaking in the water creates the feeling of drifting on the river's surface. The soft waters of the alkaline simple hot spring glide over the skin, and at night, the wind across the water and the starlight deepen the sense of quiet. The two private baths, each with a different atmosphere, can be enjoyed free of charge by overnight guests, and every room is equipped with a glass-walled cypress observation bath. Meals feature creative kaiseki cuisine centered on Tajima beef and Matsuba crab, and the hospitality is attentive down to the post-bath probiotic drinks and late-night udon.

Hot SpringONSEN

Large public bath

The open-air bath, arranged as if it were connected to the river, gives you the sensation of floating on the river's surface as soon as you sink into the water. All you hear is the sound of water and wind, and at night, starlight quietly falls onto the bath surface. The indoor bath is spacious, allowing you to stretch out fully while gazing at the flowing scenery. The soft feel of the alkaline simple hot spring glides over the skin, and its warmth lingers gently long after you leave the bath.

Private bath

The two private baths, each with a different character, can be reserved and used free of charge by overnight guests. Because you can have the wood-warmed bathing spaces all to yourself, you can immerse yourself in the bath without worrying about being seen. Once the door is closed, the only thing you hear is the sound of the water, and a quiet time unfolds just for family or someone special. Soaking in the gentle water, you can slowly unwind the fatigue of your journey.

Guest room bath

A glass-walled cypress bath available in every guest room. While soaking in the tub, you can look out over the flow of the Maruyama River or a quiet tsuboniwa courtyard. The bath space, filled with the scent of cypress, is completely private, so you can enjoy bathing as many times as you like at any time you like. It is heated water, but the luxury lies in having the shifting river surface and light all to yourself.
