About

Shiratama no Yu Kahou, perched on a small hill surrounded by 20,000 square meters of garden space, invites guests to experience the therapeutic benefits of its emerald green onsen waters, which boast one of the highest sulfur concentrations in Japan. The ryokan's alkaline hot springs, used without dilution to preserve their rich mineral content, leave skin remarkably moisturized after bathing, creating a natural beauty treatment that has attracted wellness seekers for generations. Exceptional seasonal cuisine showcases the bounty of Niigata Prefecture, including prized seafood from the Sea of Japan and wagyu beef, served in elegant settings that complement the relaxing atmosphere of this comprehensive resort where Japanese bathing traditions meet contemporary luxury.
