Benten Onsen is a historic inn located in the small bay of Minamiboso. This hidden gem retains the traditional hot spring culture of the past. The sulfur spring water, considered a sacred spring, is said to be effective for relieving fatigue and treating skin diseases.
The open-air baths in each guest room are the charm of this inn. From the Kage muku no Yu, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Mt. Fuji over the Jogashima of Miura Peninsula, offering an exceptional open feeling.

For dinner, you can enjoy a kaiseki cuisine that fully savors the flavors of Boso, including spiny lobster, turban shell, and abalone. It is a satisfying and voluminous taste for both the eyes and the palate. The old-fashioned customer service also adds to the pleasant experience, as if traveling back in time.
Benten Onsen is easily accessible, just a 2-hour drive from Tokyo. It is also within day-trip distance from the metropolitan area. For those seeking to relax and find exceptional peace, this hot spring inn is highly recommended. Why not stay in this historic hot spring inn and experience a nostalgic yet refreshing journey?
