Rakuten Travel, ranking of hot spring inns with the highest review rating for their baths: No. 1 is Hamazen Ryokan in Kumamoto Prefecture, where all guest rooms have half-open-air baths.

Posted on 2023-10-25 by Editor in Chief

The scores (out of 5 points) of word-of-mouth reviews in the bath category posted during a one-year period (September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2023) for hot spring resorts nationwide registered with Rakuten Travel are compiled. In the case of a tie, the top five were ranked in order of the number of word-of-mouth comments. The top five are as follows.

Rakuten Travel has announced the 2023 “Ranking of Onsen Inns with the Highest Review-Rated Baths”.

Rakuten Travel Top 5 Onsen Inns with the Highest Review-Rated Baths

No.1: Hamazen Ryokan (4.86 points), Kumamoto Prefecture, Kumamoto Prefecture: “Inn with a half-rotemburo in every guest room” (4.86 points)

No. 2: Akita Prefecture, “Japan’s mountain hot spring resort, Shintamagawa Onsen” (4.84 points)

No. 3: Nanki-Shirahama Wami no Yu Hanachofugetsu (4.83 points), Wakayama Prefecture

No. 4: Akita Prefecture “Touji inn of healing overflowing with efficacy Tamagawa Onsen” (4.83 points)

No. 5: “Arima Grand Hotel” (4.79 points), Arima Onsen, Hyogo Prefecture

First place went to Hamazen Ryokan, an inn with a half-open-air bath in Hinaku Onsen, Kumamoto Prefecture. All guest rooms have half-open-air baths with natural spring water, and guests can freely bathe in them during their stay.

In second place was the “Japanese Mountain Hot Springs Resort Shintamagawa Onsen” located in Towada-Hachimantai National Park in Akita Prefecture. With the largest single source in Japan gushing 9,000 liters per minute, the large baths where visitors can enjoy the highly acidic spring water and the bedrock baths that use geothermal heat were well received.

In third place is “Nanki-Shirahama Wami-no-Yu Hanachofugetsu” in Wakayama Prefecture, which opened in March 2022. Each room has a different semi-open-air bath, including wooden, tub, and ceramic baths, and guests can enjoy Shirahama Onsen, one of the three oldest hot springs in Japan, without worrying about time.

This year, Rakuten Travel saw the number of nights spent in “guest rooms with hot spring baths” increase 1.8 times from the pre-Corona level (compared to 2019). Unlike last year’s ranking, which was topped by inns with large baths, this year’s ranking resulted in “inns with hot spring baths in guest rooms” being selected in first and third place.
