ReplyDeleteHi onsensoaker,
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled upon your blog and thought you would be the right person to ask this: is there an onsen in the kansai region with private in room thermal water bath that you would kindly recommend please?
Thanks!
Hi Shinbie!
ReplyDeleteI don't recommend specific place in person, but you can search ryokans and hotels with private onsen bath on internet. See my post dated Sep 16 2010.

Hello onsensoaker,
ReplyDeleteI will be in the Tohoku region in July, and am planning to make a day trip to the Naruko Spa Area... If I would like make a day visit to this onsen, it would have to be Monday? Thank you ^^
Hi Kei!
DeleteThey accept day visit soaking everyday EXCEPT MONDAY. Business hour is rather short, from 10:00AM to 1:00PM. Enjoy your Tohoku trip!
Thanks so much onsensoaker! ^^
