Hotel Iyaonsen
The Hotel is the only hotel in Iya Valley, one of the three most secluded regions in Japan. The open-air baths, constantly supplied by free-flowing water from the hot springs and accessible by a cable car, welcome onsen-lovers from all over Japan who hope to bathe there “at least once in (their) lifetime”. The open-air baths that protrude over the Iya River are 100% natural, supplied around the clock only with hot spring water that is never artificially heated. One of the attractions of the baths is the view of the deep-cut Iya Valley that they offer the bathers. The cable car ride down to the open-air baths is a feature symbolic Iyaonsen that is extremely popular among both adults and children. The cable car has become a facility representative of Iya Valley in recent years and is welcoming guests from around the world.
