Yunoshima radium spa sanatorium

This was my first time here. Arrived at Rosoku Onsen by shuttle from Ena Station at 11:05 AM. Checked in at 11:30 AM. I've often read or heard that radon and radium baths have a sweating effect, but I've never experienced that myself. Even here, which is said to be the best in Japan, I didn't notice anything. I think you can understand the bath situation from reviews, so this is a review from a guest's perspective. The bath is shared with day-trippers from check-in until closing at 3 PM. The nighttime bath, exclusive to guests, is from 6 PM to 8 PM. During these hours, four showers are equipped with chairs, shampoo, and body soap. Dinner is served at 5:30 PM, and breakfast is served at 8:30 AM in the dining room, where reception is also available. The bath opens at 8 AM and is reserved for guests only until day-trip reception begins at 9:30 AM. Checked out at 10 AM. Transportation to the station departs at 10:25 AM. There is an Ito En soft drink vending machine on the premises. Large bottles of Super Dry, as well as sake and cold sake, are available in the dining room. Rooms are equipped with a sink and a toilet with a bidet. Thermos kettle, tea (leaf) set, kotatsu table, air conditioning, TV, and Wi-Fi. There is no refrigerator. You have to go to the dining room to have hot water filled. The futons are fluffy and comfortable, but they are more like trays than sheets, so some people might not like it. The rooms are scattered around the grounds, so getting around can be difficult depending on the room. If you are staying multiple nights, you can make a reservation for lunch at breakfast. The grounds are nice in flat areas, but there are some bumps that could cause you to sprain your ankle if you're not careful, so be careful. This is a place I would personally like to return to. I don't like people who eat slowly. They keep coming back to take away the dishes, which makes it uncomfortable. They really want you to eat quickly and leave!

About the Hot Springs and Benefits * One of the Highest Radium Contents in Japan: Boasting one of the highest radium contents among radioactive hot springs in Japan, many visitors come here for the purpose of recuperating from illness (touji). * High Bathing Effects: Many visitors report that even a short bath warms the body to the core, keeps the body warm, produces a lot of sweat, and relieves fatigue. Some say the hot spring's effects last for a long time. * Bathing Caution: Due to the high radium content, bathing in the hot spring as if it were a regular hot spring may cause illness, so care should be taken with bathing time. * Drinkable Spring Water: The hot spring water is drinkable, and some visitors report feeling better for their stomachs. While there is a faint sulfurous scent, it is said to be nearly tasteless and odorless. About the Facilities and Atmosphere * Ideal for Touji and Recuperation: This is not a luxurious tourist hot spring, and many visitors prefer a quiet stay, so some say it is not suitable for bustling tourist destinations. * Rich Natural Environment: Located on a vast site of approximately 26,000 square meters, you can also enjoy forest bathing. Many guests report feeling soothed by the sounds of water flowing and birdsong heard on the grounds. * Comments about the facilities: While the building is old, some have praised the newer rooms, such as the annex, as being clean and comfortable. However, some have pointed out issues such as small dressing rooms, the lack of refrigerators in the rooms, and limited hours when soap and shampoo are available. ... Overall, Rosoku Onsen is a facility that specializes in "therapeutic" and "restaurant care" rather than "tourism," and is highly rated by people seeking the benefits of hot springs and the sensation of being warmed from the inside out.

I visited for a three-night, four-day stay for a therapeutic hot spring bath. It was the perfect time for beautiful autumn foliage, and the gardens were so beautiful and relaxing. The meals were mainly vegetables and fish, but they were delicious and filling. The staff were all very refreshing, for better or worse, and since I was there for a therapeutic hot spring bath, I enjoyed my time there just right. The baths, which have one of the highest radium contents in Japan, are designed solely for therapeutic hot spring bathing, and the two tubs have two baths that you soak in for five minutes each. It's not meant to be a relaxing soothing experience, but even just five minutes each, for a total of ten minutes, warmed my body nicely for hours afterward, and I felt like my autonomic nervous system, which tends to get out of whack, was put in order. The guest rooms are small, detached houses scattered around the grounds, and are separate, which made it nice and quiet, as if I was in my own room. However, the single rooms were accessed through a corridor that resembled a back door from the reception building, so there was no view from the room, which was a bit disappointing. On our last day, we saw many couples coming for a day trip, but they were talking loudly in the bathroom, and most of them left their coats and large luggage in the limited number of lockers in the changing rooms before going out to the rest area in a different building. Sometimes there were no empty baskets to put their clothes in, which was disappointing at the end. It would be great if there was a warning or something about this. We feel lucky to have a candle hot spring within driving distance, so we hope to continue using it frequently in the future.

I visited for the first time on a day trip, not knowing what to expect. Bathing is allowed until 3 PM, but reception closes at 2 PM. Since the baths are used for therapeutic and therapeutic purposes, soaps are not permitted for day visitors. Apparently, the inn provides them at night for overnight guests only. We were told to only get out of Springs 1 and 2 for 5 minutes at a time, as it's easy to get a fever. It seems to be that effective. The water is clear, tasteless, and odorless. The temperature is low, around 40°C. It's easy to get in, so you might end up soaking for a long time. This counts as one course, and most people repeat this 2-3 times. After each course, the standard is to rinse off the hot spring water with a shower, put on some clothes, and rest for about an hour. There's also a free rest room. So, if you want a proper bath, you need to arrive in the morning. I arrived just before the scheduled time, unaware of the restrictions. They were very kind and allowed me to bathe once, feeling sorry for the people who'd come all the way there. The hot spring water is also drinkable. I was grateful for the advice I received from someone who'd used the bath before me. There's also a large parking lot. I slept very soundly that night and felt great. I'd like to come and stay overnight with a friend who's undergoing cancer treatment. Day-use bathing costs 1,250 yen per visit. There are carp in the garden pond... I also saw a praying mantis for the first time near the drinking fountain.

I visited Rosoku Onsen for a day trip to enjoy the hot springs. I think this is a hot spring that hot spring enthusiasts will absolutely love. The baths are on the smaller side, only big enough for about three adults, and there are two types. They seem to have beneficial effects, which is nice. Since it's a resort facility, it's not suitable for those who want to relax in a large hot spring or try out various types of baths. There are parking lots on both sides of the road, but the traffic is light, so it's easy to park. Also, the reception, hot springs, rest area, and toilets are all in separate buildings, so you need to move between them each time.
