Kasuga Onsen Ryokan, nestled in a small town in Sanuki City, Kagawa Prefecture, is a long-established ryokan proud of its natural hot springs and garden. The luxurious hot springs passed down from the Edo period can soothe tired bodies. From the separate sitting room with a thatched roof, you can view the picturesque garden throughout the seasons.
The ryokan's specialty is the gentle hot spring that penetrates deep into the body. From the spacious open-air bath, you can enjoy the sunrise. As night falls, you will be enchanted by the steam rising in the darkness. There is also a sauna for a thorough detoxification through sweating.
Dinner offers Kagawa's specialties made with fresh local ingredients. The tender bone-in chicken, which can be eaten all the way to the bone, is an exquisite delight. The soup for the hot pot dishes is made with the underground water from the sacred Mount Ishizuchi, providing a heartwarming flavor that should soothe both the mind and body.
Just a short distance from Kasuga Onsen Ryokan is the former post town's streetscape. Rows of Edo-period townhouses and a nostalgic atmosphere remain deeply ingrained. Walking through the narrow alleys, you may come across traditional sweet sake shops and Japanese confectionery stores.
Kasuga Onsen Ryokan is truly a hidden retreat that will heal your weariness with heartfelt hospitality. Wrapped in hot springs and delicious cuisine, and surrounded by an old-world atmosphere, you can fully savor an extraordinary time.
