| Facility | Spring | Source data | Supply | Bath type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Juhachiro (Day-Use Bath) | Simple iron cold mineral spring (neutral, low-tonicity, cold spring) Source: Nagaragawa Onsen, from the source at 436-1 Mitahora, Gifu City | Source temperature: 16.9°C in the analysis dated 2017-11-14; not a 2026 re-analysis pH: pH 6.6 at the site and 7.0 in the laboratory, in the 2017-11-14 analysis | Nagaragawa Onsen is used in the Kawa-no-Se, Kawa-no-Ne and Kura-no-Yu bathing areas. Current main pages do not publish complete water-addition, heating, circulation or disinfection conditions for each pool, so they are not described as uniformly free-flowing. | Day-use bath. Juhachiro is a good way to combine a historic riverside inn, Nagaragawa scenery and several bathing areas with a visit to Kawaramachi. Build around the 90-minute limit and confirm the day-use schedule first. |
| Gifu Nagaragawa Hotel Park (Day-Use Bath) | Simple iron cold mineral spring (neutral, low-tonicity, cold spring) Source: Nagaragawa Onsen; the hotel does not identify its individual source or allocation in current main pages | Source temperature: Not published for the hotel's supply pH: Not published | The panoramic bath and outdoor bath use Nagaragawa Onsen water. Current pages do not provide full treatment details for each pool, so they are not described as uniformly free-flowing. | Day-use bath. Hotel Park is a sensible choice if you want a view of Mount Kinka and Gifu Castle with a day-use bath around the ¥1,000 mark. It works best for visitors willing to check the hotel's schedule before setting out. |
| Gifu Grand Hotel (Day-Use Bath) | Simple iron cold mineral spring (neutral, low-tonicity, cold spring) Source: Nagaragawa Onsen; the hotel does not publish its individual source well or allocation in current main pages | Source temperature: Not published for the hotel supply pH: Not published | Natural spring water is used in the Hitotsuba large-bath spring pool, which the hotel describes as recirculating. Herbal baths, plain-water jacuzzis and cold baths are separate features, not the same spring pool. | Day-use bath. Grand Hotel is a strong option for a prepared morning soak: the ¥1,000 early window includes towels, toiletries and sauna access. Check the shorter day-use windows if you are arriving later in the day. |
