Ashino Onsen

Hot Spring / Hot Spring Bath
During the Edo period, this hot spring district was located in the Basin between the mountainside hills of Ashino-juku, a post station town situated along the Ohshu Highway, and at that time it operated much like a modern-day health spa. The district has two private source springs, both simple alkaline hot springs, and their waters are said to treat a variety of ailments, including muscle soreness and nerve pain in addition to aiding recovery from fatigue. The area's two medicinal herb baths are particularly renowned. The Nagi no Yu is for diseases which are caught from some other source outside the body, while the Nabi no Yu is for inherent diseases; the waters of the Nagi no Yu are particularly harsh, and bathers will begin experience pain across their skin after a five minute dip in the tub. Bathers are recommended to take two to three five minute dips with small breaks in between. The district's medicinal mist sauna is also popular, and its essential oils, when absorbed by the mucous membranes of the nose, act particularly effectively on the throat to suppress coughing.

    効能の違う5種類の温泉があり、ほとんどの方がリピーターで朝食も少しずつ変化があり美味しい。夕食は日帰り館の居酒屋みたいなところで2人で3・4品頂いたが小食の年寄りも6日間飽きずにリーズナブルで美味しく頂けた。リンパマッサージと足つぼマッサージが館内にある。ソフトクリームが見かけよりボリュームがありコーンカップも美味しい。館内は手すりが至る所について老人のタメ良く考えられているが1か所坂の上り下りが...

    ご年配者のリピーターを獲得するために随所に工夫が見られます。若い人の利用者は少ないです。珍しいためか話しかけられる事が多いです。温泉目当てなら予約時に温泉館を指定すると楽です。年に1,2回ほど訪れていますが朝食のメニューはあまり変化ないけど野菜中心で美味しいです。チェックアウト後にも温泉に入れるのが良いです。
  • 連泊者優先

    何度か1泊ないし2泊で泊まってます。ここ最近はこのホテルは連泊者>年長者>1泊等の扱いですかね。かつて経営されてたかたの時はもう少し情がありました。心からのおもてなしがありました。いまは某国の方の経営にかわり、雰囲気もそちらに近い感じ。マナーのよい年長者さんならよいのですが、早朝や夜中も仲間との部屋の行き来でドアを大きく叩いてみたり、通路も大声で話しながらだったり。シングル館はほぼ年長者の連泊湯治...
