Bandaisan Onsen Hotel by Hoshino Resorts

A resort hotel rich in Aizu culture—the history and traditions of Fukushima Prefecture's Aizu region—with views of majestic Mount Bandai, one of Japan's 100 Famous Mountains, and picturesque Lake Inawashiro.

After checking in, head first to the hot spring fed by Mount Bandai. Its gentle waters envelop the skin and soothe travel fatigue from within. After your bath, unwind at the spacious Koderanni Plaza overlooking the mountain as clouds drift by.

The cuisine showcases the bounty of the region. Dinner, featuring carefully selected local sake pairings, is especially popular, while distinctive local food traditions include morning ramen, perfect for starting a refreshing day.

A wide range of guest rooms suits different travel styles. Options range from the Aizu Modern Suite, limited to two rooms and equipped with a sake cellar, to the maisonette-style Semi-Suite Room. Each features a distinctive layout and relaxing atmosphere.

A variety of activities found only here await in an extraordinary setting decorated with red beko folk toys, from dancing to local folk songs to a seasonal night pool. Experience the spirit of Aizu, preserved since the Edo period, at this hotel.
