More about Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan

More about Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan

Welcome to Koshu Nishiyama Hot Spring, Keiunkan - an inn with free-flowing hot springs with 1,300 years of history. The history of the Keiunkan inn dates back 1,300 years to the year 705 AD (the 2nd year of the Keiun era), when Fujiwara Mahito founded the inn. Because it was founded in the Keiun era, the inn was thus named Keiunkan. The hot spring has flowed freely without interruption since then and is loved by many townsfolk, military commanders and cultured peoples as a secluded place deep in the mountains of the Kai region. Keiunkan, to this day, still embodies the unchanging hospitality of the heart of Japanese harmony for all of their guests. In the Guinness World Records, Keiunkan is certified as the world's most historical inn. - World's Longest-Standing Inn Founded in 705 AD -

History of Keiunkan
The Nishiyama Hot Spring, Keiunkan is said to have had many townsfolk and military commanders of the warring period visiting it. Amidst the unification of Japan after the warring period, it is said that Tokugawa Ieyasu visited twice. Later, it was called the secret hot spring of Takeda Shingen and Tokugawa Ieyasu. No matter how much time has passed, Keiunkan embodies the unchanging hospitality fueled by the spirit of Japanese harmony towards their guests.

Same Prefecture as World Heritage Site 'Mt. Fuji'
Keiunkan is located in Yamanashi Prefecture, the same prefecture as the World Heritage-listed Mt. Fuji, so perhaps you can view the grand sight of Japan's greatest sacred mountain, Mt. Fuji, while you make your way to the world's longest-standing inn, Keiunkan. *Mt. Fuji is not viewable from the facilities.

Hot Springs
This lodging brings you a moment of bliss with a luxurious bath with the free-flowing hot spring. Keiunkan has four open-air baths and two indoor baths for a total of six baths. There are four different sources of the natural hot spring, and the water has the properties of sodium, calcium nitrate and chloride spring (low alkaline properties) and is sourced from the chasm of the Earth, Fossa Magna, cultivated over eons of time. Please enjoy the hot springs; they also have a terrace setting for you to enjoy the view of the Yukawa ravine afterwards.

      We had such a wonderful stay! The welcome, the relaxation, the quiet, and the food! We must have come in a quiet week as every bath was empty when we went, so other than meal times we felt we had the place to ourselves! We were so relaxed after 2 days in

      The Nishiyama Onsen is an incredible hotel both in terms of location and experience. The only downside being the cost of stay with it being by far the most expensive accommodation I have stayed in anywhere in the world; by a long way. That said, I would su

      Beds are too hard, no mattress, only tatami. There is only one pillow per person, which is tiny and not comfortable. Changing rooms in the family baths on the first floor are very old and smelly. Food are not fresh.

      The location is in deep mountain, which means it’s really hard to get there. We missed the last bus when we arrived the nearest train station at 5:30pm, and so we had to take a taxi to get there, and the cost for taxi was 14000 JPY for a approximately one
