天然温泉 日王の湯

I used it as a day spa. I arrived before opening time at 9:00 AM, and was grateful to find a parking spot. I parked my car and ran to the foot of Mt. Fukuchi. I took a quick bath to wash off the sweat.♨️ When I returned at 10:30 AM, the parking lot was almost full. It's popular, isn't it? It's 700 yen, but with a LINE friend discount, it's 600 yen. Once inside, there are separate reception desks for men and women. You leave your shoe locker key and receive a locker key. The hallways, changing rooms, and baths are spacious and comfortable. The shampoo, conditioner, and body soap were stylish and made with organic coconut.🧴 The open-air tub bath had an event-themed atmosphere. I enjoyed a mugwort bath. I love mugwort, so I enjoyed the scent and relaxation. There are benches in the open-air bath where you can rest. It looks like it would be nice in the summer, too. It was quiet, so I was able to relax. Apparently, there's a dry and mist sauna. In the indoor bath, I enjoyed alternating between the cold and hot baths. The shower doesn't shut off after a set time, so it's always running. It was luxurious. 😆 Next to the changing room, there was a room where you could watch TV while getting a massage. It has a spacious design that's hard to find in urban areas. It seems to have been ranked #1 in the Nifty Kyushu Hot Springs Rankings in 2025, so I think that's why it's so highly rated. It's scheduled to close in February 2026, but with such a great facility, I really hope someone will continue to operate it.

We used the family bath. It was divided into private rooms, so we were able to relax. The bath was quite smooth and felt great. The tub was deep, enough for a 2-year-old to stand in with his shoulders slightly exposed.

I was hoping for the smooth feeling of an alkaline spring, but it was just a regular super public bath. There was no smooth feeling at all. It's a little warm, so I think it's perfect for people who don't like hot water. They also seem to put a lot of effort into selling goods. The facilities are clean and well-maintained. For serious hot spring enthusiasts, it's not enough. The actual price is 700 yen. There is a 100 yen return for the shoe locker. You can exchange your shoe locker key for a free locker key in the changing room. The staff are very polite.

We used the family hot spring over Golden Week. When we parked, we were met with some insensitive comments from a local resident, which made me very angry. My daughter was on crutches, so we parked close to the entrance, and an elderly person said, "Move, I'm going to park there!" and "It's at the back," as if they were making fun of us because our car had an out-of-state license plate. What is this place⁉️Is it a facility that only locals have priority over others? Is it okay as long as it's fine for me? I felt bad after taking a bath and went home.

The cleaning staff are very nice. The front desk often makes the mistake of handing over someone else's shoe locker key, so it's a good idea to remember your own shoe locker number before you leave. Also, the changing room keys are often handed out in a line in the order of entry, which is inconsiderate, so you might bump into someone else and have trouble getting changed, so it's best to specify whether you're waiting at the back or the front. The building is clean. The food is delicious. The water quality in the large public bath is poor.
