The view bath sits on a hilltop at 160 m and opens onto the whole Chikugo Plain, the Chikugo River and the Mino range - the best thing you can see from a tub anywhere in Fukuoka, and it is open to day visitors for 800 yen between roughly 11:00 and 15:00. The water is a calcium-sodium-magnesium bicarbonate spring run through without dilution. What you do not get on a day ticket is anywhere to sit afterwards, an indoor bath, or a family bath, and you will need a car to get up there.

Every onsen on this site is scored against the same written rubric, and every score has been reviewed by the editor. The ones marked Visited were also bathed in personally.

The baths

Open-air bath

Rabie, the view open-air bath, sits at the top of Mount Koyama at about 160 m, in a separate building reached by a garden path, and looks out over the Chikugo Plain, the Chikugo River and the Mino mountains. Each side has a sauna with a large picture window. This is the only bath open to day visitors.

Open to day visitors

Indoor bath

A large indoor bath on the first floor of the main building, also facing the Chikugo Plain. Overnight guests only, 5:00-9:00 and from check-in to 24:00. The hotel notes that the indoor bath and the open-air bath are in different buildings, not one bathroom.

Overnight guests only

In-room bath

Some rooms have their own open-air or view bath - Japanese-style, Western-style and mixed types are offered. Overnight guests only.

Overnight guests only

A private bath means nobody else is in the water with you — often the practical answer if the shared baths are closed to tattooed guests.
