Main bathhouse
A main bathhouse drawing on its own source, which rises from deep underground beside the hotel. The water is an alkaline simple spring, prized for a silky, slightly thick feel that seems to stroke the skin. Because it gently lifts away sebum and grime, it is also called a “bath for beautiful skin.” Colorless, clear and almost odorless, the water is understated, and so your attention turns to the scenery before you. A large window sits directly in front of the bath, and on clear days with few clouds you can see Mount Fuji straight ahead while immersed up to your shoulders. There is no open-air bath, but the mountain filling the window carries straight on into the landscape outside.
