Zao Onsen, a quiet hot spring resort nestled in the mountains of Zao, is home to the Iwashimizu Cuisine Inn - Toshi-no-Sato, a hidden inn that offers exquisite healing and luxurious relaxation.
The charm of Zao's famous hot springs can be fully enjoyed at this inn. Inside the inn, there are artificial hot spring baths available 24 hours a day, allowing for a leisurely time. However, the true highlight is the strong acidic hot spring flowing directly from the source. Boasting one of the strongest acidity levels in the country, its unique aroma and color captivate travelers.
After immersing oneself in the essence of the hot springs, a kaiseki cuisine using seasonal Yamagata ingredients awaits. Dishes made with A5-ranked beef and carefully selected vegetables will enchant guests with their beautiful presentation and refined taste. You are sure to find a favorite dish.
The warm hospitality unique to a small inn run by a mother and daughter leaves a lasting impression. From the thoughtful gesture of serving sweet red-bean soup upon arrival to the attentive care when one is unwell, and the kind and cheerful service of the staff, meticulous attention makes the stay even more comfortable.
Wrapped in the blessings of Zao's nature, while being healed by the superb hot springs and cuisine, and the hospitality, why not take a break from your ordinary daily life? We invite you to visit this hidden inn that beckons you to relaxation.
