How it scores
Every onsen on this site is scored on the same five things.
The baths
Open-air bath
Open-air only - there is no indoor bath at all, so plan around the weather. Six kinds of bathing in the same complex: a rock-built open-air tub beside the Hida River, a utase (falling-water) bath, the 'san-on-no-yu' three-temperature baths, a steam box and a bubble bath.
