The Japanese bath is a place for tranquility and peace. Here you move slowly, speak in a low tone and give yourself time to let your senses rest. No cell phones – just you and the soothing water. You wear your yukata and the swimwear we give you. All for you to be able to unwind and gain new energy. You may also book a spa treatment to deepen your relaxation.
In 2018, we opened our brand new Japanese bathhouse. The basic concept is still the same, but now an even more Japanese and relaxing environment awaits you with more places to relax.
In the Japanese ablution room, you sit on a small wooden stool and wash yourself. This is a moment in silence for you to unwind and get ready to really let go. After the ritual of washing yourself, hot spring under the pines awaits you as well as a and a number of other opportunities for relaxation, such as a steam salt sauna, carbonated bath, cold springs, rest sauna and more that should just be experienced rather than described.

The Japanese bath is a place for tranquility and reflection. When you check in, you will, together with your yukata receive instructions on how to wash yourself the Japanese way. The Japanese word Yasuragi can be described as the long relaxed exhale you make when sinking into a hot spring and let go for a moment, it´s an exhalation of the soul. To wash and bathe according to the old Japanese tradition is a great way unwind body and mind and let go of everyday life. You always start your visit at Yasuragi by washing yourself. Even today, the Japanese use this ancient meditative tradition to relax.
