Mizuno is a quiet and atmospheric kominka hot spring inn that is just a 7 minute dive by car away from Ajiro Station on the JR Ito Station. It is a place where the warmth of the sea and mountains surrounding the hot springs harmonize just perfectly with the inherent warmth of the old, natural materials that the inn was built with. Incredibly rich in nature, the inn was once a private farmhouse that was renovated to serve guests as a traditional Japanese inn. With their thick, wooden pillars, the rooms emulate the cozy feeling of an old forest, an experience that is brought to perfecting by soaking your body in the natural open-air bath of Mizuno. Bring time to a stand-still and seek refuge of the busy day to day life of the city here.
