Our hotel is situated in“Yunogawa” the side of Yamashiro Hot spring,
boasting a history of 1,300 years and in which you can feel unchanged hospitality
from the beginning of Meiji era.
Yamashiro Hot spring where the hotels were built to just surround the
public bath and a city scape was made.
In this sense, from the meaning of hot water surrounding the hot water,
we began to call this area around the public bath “the side of hot spring” (Yunogawa).

Famous Yamashiro hot spring with history of 1,300 years is a charming hot spring resort of beautiful nature and cheerful people viewing the Sacred mountain HAKUSAN.
A poet Yosano Akiko and an artist Kitaouji Rosanjin was fascinated by Yamashiro hot spring.
The street of red glacier lattice and the lanterns lining up the streets make the hot spring atmosphere more palatable.
The basic concept of our hospitality “HIRAGANA’s Omotenashi” gained attention from the softness and the kindness of the impression that we receive from Hiragana. (HIRAGANA means one of the way of writing Japanese characters.) Natural warms possessed by paulownia on the floor means “Heart”(Kokoro) that welcomes guests warmly and hospitable. Also, do you know that HIRAGANA has a deep edge in the ground of a mountain castle? The edge is that priest MYOKAKU who was the chief priest of YAKUOUIN temple about 1,000 years ago is said to be “a founder of a table of the 50 Japanese syllabary”. Still, you can see the people walk away “Path of AIUEO” from Yakuouin Temple which is derived from the Priest GYOGI in the front of our hotel.
