Nestled in the hot spring area of Otobe-cho, Eshi-gun, Hokkaido, is Kourinsou at Otobe Onsen. This quiet hot spring inn is charming with its serene wooden atmosphere and will heal the hearts of the travelers who visit.
Kourinsou's pride lies in its two spring sources, which gush forth golden, salty hot springs unique to seaside areas. Soak in the bath and surrender to the relaxed time flowing by. As the hot spring is not a circulation type, occasional temperature adjustments may be necessary, but they can be managed with a stirring rod.
Despite its intimate atmosphere, the inn offers a full-fledged kaiseki dinner. Each dish shines with the artisan's skill, bringing out the flavor of the season's bounty. The creative kaiseki, made with fresh ingredients, is the true charm of Otobe Onsen.
Access to Kourinsou requires a car, which keeps it away from the hustle and bustle of tourist spots and preserves its tranquil ambiance. A small, secluded hot spring area where you can refresh both body and soul, it offers a relaxing holiday away from the busy everyday life.
