Dinosaur Inn & Spa Day Bath

The most convenient pairing with the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum if you want to add a natural spring bath and sauna without a long detour.

Check before bathing

On weekdays, the official homepage and footer say 12:00–20:00, while the bath-pricing block says 12:00–22:00; use 20:00 as the cautious closing time unless confirmed. Closed the second Wednesday of each month, except in August and from December through March.

Water handling
The current official page says the large bath uses the facility's natural spring. Pool-by-pool details on water addition, heating, circulation and disinfection are not published, so not every bath is described as source-flowing.

Bathing indications

The facility lists general indications including cuts, peripheral circulation issues, sensitivity to cold and dry skin. These are not a treatment guarantee.

Weekday closing-time information conflicts across the official site; 20:00 is the cautious cutoff. Closed on the second Wednesday, except in August and December–March.
