A large milky-white rock bath on the highest hillside in Beppu, open to Mt Tsurumi, Mt Takasaki and the arch of the Myoban Bridge, with steam drifting up from the thatched yunohana sheds below. Facilities are basic and it fills on fine afternoons, but for setting and for water this is the pick of Beppu's open-air baths.

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

The links below are affiliate links — we may earn a commission if you book through them, at no extra cost to you. It never changes what we list or how we score it.

Why Agoda for Japan: it lists a lot of ryokan and small inns that the Western booking sites never picked up, and it usually prices Japanese properties in yen, so you are not paying a conversion spread on top of the room rate. Worth comparing before you book — the difference on a ryokan is often larger than you would expect.

About the day-pass link: Asoview is the main place day-use onsen in Japan sell entry tickets and discount coupons in advance. It is a Japanese-only site, so use your browser’s translation — you show the ticket on your phone at the door.
