Oyado Hanabo

Hanabo spreads detached accommodation through a wooded site beside the Nanataki stream. The arrangement feels like a small settlement within the trees, with greenery and the sound of running water close to the rooms.

Every room has its own natural spring bath, using undiluted water on a freely flowing basis. Shared open-air bathing provides another way to enjoy the surroundings, but the private room bath gives the stay its defining sense of seclusion. Fresh leaves, autumn color and snow can each change the scene around the tub.

Meals are made in-house around seasonal ingredients and draw particularly positive guest feedback. Hanabo is a strong choice for couples seeking a small retreat where food and bathing can carry the whole evening. Its appeal lies in having a room, a spring and a piece of woodland temporarily to yourself.
