Free-flowing or recirculated? How to tell real onsen water before you book

'Hot spring' on a booking page can mean anything from water straight from the source to recirculated, chlorinated tap water in your room. What the Japanese terms mean, and which ryokan in our directory pass the test.

Tattoo-friendly ryokan — and how to soak in Japan when the shared bath says no

Three ryokan that openly accept tattoos, four that allow small covered ones, and eleven that ban tattoos in the shared baths but let you soak in your own room or a private bath — each inn's policy exactly as it states it, and the right room to book.

Kusatsu OnsenClásico

Kusatsu Onsen, Gunma — on a back lane behind the Honke Chichiya manjū shop, about three minutes' walk (steeply uphill on the way back) from the Yubatake and five from Kusatsu Onsen bus terminal

Kusatsu Onsen Kanemidori

昔心の宿金みどり

A 30-room Kusatsu inn, founded in 1902 as a restaurant, that guests choose for its nine-course dinners and two free-flowing springs — but the rooms have no views, the private baths cost extra and the portions defeat many

Kusatsu OnsenClásico

Kusatsu Onsen, Gunma — on the hill above the Yubatake, a 3–5 minute walk (uphill on the way back) from the hot-spring field and about 7 minutes from the bus terminal

Kusatsu Onsen Boun

草津温泉望雲

A Kusatsu inn dating to 1598, with strong, free-flowing acidic water from two springs and a new wing of onsen-bath rooms — but uneven service and dinners that recent guests rate below the baths

Kusatsu Onsen Hotel Ichii

草津温泉ホテル一井

The closest hotel to Kusatsu's Yubatake, with two free-flowing springs and a much-praised live-kitchen buffet — but only 23 rooms see the hot-spring field, most rooms are dated, and it's a big, busy house with long corridors

Kusatsu Onsen, Gunma — beside the stone steps up to Kōsenji temple at the edge of the Yubatake (about 15 seconds' walk to the hot-spring field), five minutes' walk from Kusatsu Onsen bus terminal

Nushiyu Ryokan

草津温泉ぬ志勇旅館

A small family-run inn on the Yubatake with Kusatsu's only open-air bath looking down on the hot-spring field, fed by the rare Shirahata spring, plus a free private bath — but it's an old stair-climbing house with smoking rooms, no air conditioning and cash-only payment, and the view is mostly from the men's side

Kusatsu Onsen Hotel Sakurai

草津温泉ホテル櫻井

El mayor «hotel» onsen de Kusatsu es en realidad un ryokan de 179 habitaciones: casi todas de tatami, un baño de 30 metros alimentado por tres fuentes sin recircular, un bufé con cocina en directo y un espectáculo de yumomi cada noche — pero es grande y concurrido, y los baños al aire libre de las habitaciones no son de agua termal

Kusatsu OnsenClásico

Kusatsu Onsen, Gunma — in a quiet villa district on the hill above town, a 15–20-minute walk from the Yubatake (uphill on the way back), with free shuttles to the Kusatsu Onsen bus terminal

Yuyado Toki no Niwa

湯宿季の庭

A tatami-floored Kusatsu inn where all 64 rooms have an open-air onsen bath, plus 23 tubs shared with a sister inn — but the room baths are filled on demand rather than free-flowing, it's a 15–20-minute walk from the Yubatake, and 2025–2026 guests report an ageing building
