KAI Tamatsukuri

界 玉造

Hoshino Resorts' 24-room inn in Tamatsukuri: every room has its own open-air onsen bath, staff perform Iwami kagura every night and dinner centres on a shijimi-clam beef shabu-shabu — but the water is diluted, heated and recirculated, the building is full of steps, and 2026 reviews note slips in service

Kasuien Minami

佳翠苑 皆美

Tamatsukuri's big, polished all-rounder: 108 rooms with plenty of free-flowing in-room onsen baths, a rooftop view bath, sea-bream rice and very high guest scores — but it's large enough for check-in queues, tour groups and a crowded breakfast

Ikaho Onsen Tsukagoshiya Shichibee

伊香保温泉 温泉宿 塚越屋七兵衛

An Edo-era Ikaho inn whose indoor bath pours the iron-brown 'golden' spring free-flowing, with warm, attentive service and table-grilled Gunma beef at modest prices — but the outdoor baths aren't hot-spring water, meals are mostly in halls, and 2026 reviews flag an ageing building

Inatori Ginsuiso

稲取銀水荘

The big Izu ocean-view ryokan once voted No. 1 for hospitality 15 years running: simmered kinmedai, an all-day free lounge and suites with their own spring-fed open-air baths — but unrenovated rooms, recurring corridor smells and a dated main bath drag it down

Itamuro Onsen Daikokuya

板室温泉 大黒屋

A hot-spring inn founded in 1551 that doubles as a contemporary-art museum, with silky alkaline water flowing through every bath — calm and unusual, but rooms are old and the baths small

Ito Onsen Yokikan

伊東温泉 陽気館

Ryokan lereng bukit sejak 1910 tempat kereta kabel mungil milik penginapan mendaki kemiringan 45 derajat menuju pemandian terbuka beraliran langsung di atas Itō, dengan kedua kali makan di kamar — tetapi bangunannya tua dan penuh tangga, tutup setiap Selasa dan Rabu, dan pemandangan hanya terlihat saat Anda berdiri
