Usagi-no-Yu Public Bath

Tattoo policy
The facility's current first-party information does not confirm a tattoo policy. Check with the bath before visiting.

Spring & water temperature

Spring-source temperature
38°C, as listed by the facility. This is the source temperature, not a fixed bathing-pool temperature.
Bathing temperature
Not published.
Spring source
Yumen Onsen water used at Usagi-no-Yu; the current main official page does not publish the formal name of the individual source.
Spring classification
Alkaline simple hot spring.
pH
Not published.
Flow rate
Not published.
Water handling
The current facility page describes the bath as source-flowing. It does not fully publish water addition, heating or disinfection conditions, so source-flowing is not expanded into a claim that the water receives no other treatment.

Bathing indications

The facility promotes general bathing and skin-related benefits. These are not personal medical or cosmetic guarantees.

The facility explicitly says the water is source-flowing, but does not provide complete details on heating, water addition or disinfection.

Adult admission is ¥350. The ryokan's general template also mentions a ¥150 bathing tax, but Nagato City exempts public and day-use baths charging under ¥1,000; ¥350 is used as the current day-use price. The private bath “Yura” is currently reserved for overnight guests. Its main page and older FAQ show different private-bath prices, so it is not presented as a day-use add-on.
