The bath waters change with the seasons, with yuzu citrus for winter, as well as fragrant pine and lovely iris, among others. There is also a large shower space and tatami-mat rest area, so guests can take the time to pamper themselves after the bath, too.
Guests can also indulge in a luxurious bath without even leaving their rooms. In each bathroom, guests will find a complimentary bottle of Fushimi sake for adding to their bath water. Sake has long been a well-kept Japanese secret for youthful and smooth skin.
