Gero Onsen in Gifu Prefecture is well known as one of Japan's three most famous hot springs, alongside Arima in Hyogo Prefecture and Kusatsu in Gunma Prefecture. Yunoshimakan is a long-standing ryokan Japanese-style inn in Gero Onsen. The ryokan was established in 1931 and has had the honor of accommodating the previous Emperor Showa and the current Emperor Akihito. The more than 80-years-old wooden structure in a traditional sukiya-style took three years to be built by artisans of Hida, who are local artisans famous for their skillful techniques. The building is designated as a National Tangible Cultural Asset. Since the hotel stands in the great forest, each room commands a view of natural beauty. Guests here can experience the real Japan by staying at this historical main building surrounded by nature. Our ryokan is the best choice for those who want to touch and sample the ambience of real Japan.
