Akiu Onsen, Sendai, Miyagi

Hotel Hananoyu Day-Use Onsen

A day-use hotel bath with indoor and riverside outdoor pools, plus a separately booked private outdoor bath. It closes to day visitors on Tuesdays and Fridays unless the day is a public holiday; the current day-use section takes precedence over older duplicated text elsewhere on the spa page.

Spring & water temperature

Spring-source temperature
Not published in the current main pages.
Bathing temperature
No fixed temperature published.
Spring source
Hananoyu private spring.
Spring classification
Sodium-calcium chloride spring.
pH
Not published.
Flow rate
About 130 L/min for the private source; this is source yield, not flow into an individual bath.
Water handling
The hotel identifies its own natural spring. The private outdoor bath and open-air baths attached to guest rooms are explicitly source-flowing; treatment details for the regular day-use indoor and riverside baths are not fully published.

The ordinary day-use pools should not be described as source-flowing based on the separate private-bath statement.
