Yamae Onsen Hotaru

Yamae Onsen Hotaru combines a small accommodation wing with a much broader bathing offering. The ten-room property in Yamae village promotes twelve bath types, giving guests room to vary their routine over an overnight stay.

The sodium bicarbonate spring supplies communal and open-air baths, with private bathing and a sauna adding further options. Selected room categories also have their own open-air bath, so choosing the accommodation carefully can make the visit considerably more private.

Guest accounts describe generous room space for families and satisfying meals. Hotaru makes most sense for travelers who want a practical countryside base with substantial bathing variety. Its personality comes from the contrast between the limited number of guest rooms and the breadth of the onsen facilities available beyond them.
