Hot Spring

Lined with willow trees & stone bridges,
the Otani River flows through Kinosaki Onsen.
In the heart of the atmospheric onsen town
you will find Nishimuraya Honkan.
Guest rooms overlooking a meticulously manicured Japanese garden,
exhibiting the refined beauty of Japanese style.
Hot spring baths, each with their own unique charms.
Surrender to the soft caress of the onsen waters & savor the cuisine
of the Tajima region, passed down through generations.
With a spirit of hospitality that embodies our 165-year history
and tradition, we welcome you.
Kinosaki Onsen was said to have been established as a hot spring destination 1,300 years ago when a stork was seen healing its wounds in the spring waters. Kinosaki is also mentioned in the "Kokin Wakashu", a collection of ancient Japanese poems and has been visited by nobles and literary figures over the years. Immerse yourself in the historic waters of Kinosaki and savor a relaxing bath in its charming, traditional hot springs.
