Nyuto Onsenkyo, Akita Prefecture

Taenoyu, Nyuto Onsenkyo

A particularly complete option if you want two springs, separate-gender outdoor baths, a mixed bath and a bookable private bath at one inn. It is not the cheapest choice for a quick soak.

Bathing indications

The inn lists general bathing indications for its springs. This is hot-spring information, not a personal treatment or immunity claim.

Day admission is ¥1,000 for adults and ¥500 for children through elementary-school age. The private Yawaragi bath costs ¥3,300 for one hour and can be reserved by phone in advance. The inn's current ¥3,300 rate takes precedence over an older ¥1,080 figure still shown in some Nyuto Onsenkyo summaries. Tattoo policy is unconfirmed.
