The eighth-floor Kogane bath is fed by Sogo-yu, the pooled blend of the Ikaho wells. It is a calcium-sodium sulfate-bicarbonate-chloride spring, hypotonic and neutral: sulfate gives the water its quiet body, with bicarbonate softness and a salty edge layered over it. At 41.2 °C at the source and 1.36 g/kg of total constituents it is moderately mineralized, and it carries 7.23 mg/kg of dissolved iron(II). Metasilicic acid runs to 181 mg/kg — high enough to place it squarely in Japan's beauty-water family, leaving the kind of thin silica film that makes skin feel noticeably smoother. The posted usage notice records no dilution, no recirculating filtration and no disinfection; only gentle reheating to hold bathing temperature.

785. Hotel Matsumotoro, Ikaho Onsen, Gunma ★ I went for a higaeri for ¥1500. Higaeri is listed from 10:30 to 14:00 (last entry at 13:00). The baths are switched between men and women. The bath photos online match. 1. Outdoor area. There is a view of the mountains and the town through a semi-transparent glass fence. You cannot see the view while sitting in the bath. 1.1. Stone bath with headrests. The water is cloudy orange-brown, temperature 42.5. 1.2. Rectangular bath. The water is clear, temperature 43.5. 2. Indoor area. It is comfortable to breathe inside. 2.1. Large bath. There is a pedestal with a hammer in the bath, and gold coins are scattered on the bottom of the bath. The water is clear, temperature 42.5. 2.2. Small bath. The water is cloudy orange-brown, temperature 42. 2.3. Sauna. 2.4. Cold bath for one person. An interesting place with good baths, but the potential of the location is very strongly limited by the poorly made semi-frosted fence, which ruins the view and does not let you enjoy it. 12.01.2026
