Aichi Minamichita Town
A hot spring ryokan where you can enjoy a natural hot spring overlooking the spectacular views of Ise Bay and savor Chita's seafood delicacies
"Hananomaru, Minamichita Onsenkyo" is an onsen ryokan in Minamichita Town, Chita District, Aichi Prefecture. From the panoramic large bath, Senga no Yu, on the top floor, you can take in sweeping views of the islands in Ise Bay and Mikawa Bay through the glass while soaking in the tub. The natural hot spring, drawn from deep underground, is a highly saline chloride spring with excellent heat-retention properties. If you listen to the sound of the waves in the open-air bath, where the sea breeze feels pleasant, the fatigue of everyday life melts away. With four private open-air baths, each with a different atmosphere, as well as guestrooms with hot spring baths, you can also enjoy a private soak undisturbed by anyone. Together with kaiseki cuisine made generously with fresh seafood from the Chita Peninsula, you can spend a heartwarming seaside holiday.

A panoramic large bath and open-air bath located on the top floor. Filled with natural hot spring water from a sodium-chloride strong saline spring rising from deep underground, it has a distinct salty taste if you try it. Its excellent heat-retention properties keep you warm long after you get out of the bath. From the glass-walled indoor bath and the expansive open-air bath, you can take in the magnificent panorama of Ise Bay, which changes character between morning and evening, and enjoy a truly exceptional soak while feeling the pleasant sea breeze.

Four private open-air baths with different atmospheres, named Hanaakari, Haten, Hakarabi, and Hanagata. Like the large bath, they use high-quality natural chloride spring water. Without worrying about anyone else's gaze, you can listen to the sound of the waves in a private space and enjoy the scenery spread out beyond the steam all to yourself. It is the perfect setting for spending a peaceful, soothing moment alone with someone special or with family.

You can also fully enjoy the same natural hot spring in the private open-air bath attached to your room. In guestrooms with an ocean-side view, the greatest appeal is being able to monopolize the beautiful scenery of Ise Bay from the tub. While gazing at the colors of the sky and sea shifting with time, you can surrender yourself to high-quality hot spring water at your own pace, whenever and however long you like, for the ultimate stay.

A women-only bedrock bath area that gently relieves everyday fatigue. Thanks to the effect of far-infrared rays emitted by heated natural stones, heat gradually penetrates deep into the body without making you feel stifled. In a comfortable temperature, you can work up a silky sweat and enjoy the ultimate detox experience. In this space wrapped in silence, both body and mind can be deeply refreshed.
