CityAbout
Shiki no Yado Minoya is a ryokan at Yahiko onsen, built around a pair of view baths facing Mount Yahiko: the open-air Tsuki-makura (月まくら, for men) and Hoshi-makura (星まくら, for women). The separate men's and women's indoor baths have marble tubs and their own sauna. The spring water is alkaline and feels smooth on the skin. A few renovated guest rooms come with their own open-air bath fed by the spring. The inn also runs a restaurant, and day-use bathing is offered for a few hours around midday.
