The warmth and aesthetics of the Juraku wall of Yamatoya Honten create a unique and different atmosphere from that of the bustling hot spring district of Dogo Onsen.
Established in 1868, this authentic Japanese-style inn inheriting the tradition and culture of Matsuyama comes complete with a Noh stage where guests can enjoy captivating traditional performances every day. Only a minute on foot from one of the oldest hot spring facilities in Japan, the Dogo Onsen Honkan, Yamatoya Honkan accommodates first timers to even the seasoned travelers alike.
[Hot Spring]
Dogo Onsen is mentioned in 'Nihon Shoki', the second oldest historical record of ancient Japan, and is said to be the oldest hot spring in the country. The alkaline spring is known for its high beatifying effect on skin.

We stayed one night at the hotel. The location of the hotel is just next to the historical Dogo Onsen. We took a walk along the dogo onsen area with a lot of souvenir shops around. We enjoyed the onsen within the hotel, particularly the outdoor ones durin

Great spacious room. Superb food, both in quality and quantity. Very conveniently located. Highly recommended. The only drawback about the hot springs is, it doesn't have a cold tub.

良いのは立地”
由緒ある施設なので、予算は厳しいですが、ＧＯ ＴＯの値引きで宿泊できました。 朝食が残稔でした。団体が早朝からいたので、ホールスタッフが少ないと感じました。

露天風呂が良かった”
お部屋は篝火で照らされた能舞台が見えるお部屋だったのでとても感動した。お部屋も広くゆったり出来たがオートロックだと良かった。お部屋食も対応よく準備してくれ美味しくいただいた。地下の露天風呂が石垣と木々に囲まれたような森にいるようで癒された
