Property information

Yumotoya is traditional and historic Japanese inn located in a picturesque rural landscape one hour from Niigata Airport. Yumotoya began operating as a therapeutic bath in 1880. Small lodgings were later built and transformed the business into a Japanese-style hot spring resort. The business was further expanded in the early Showa Era with additional buildings. Today, Yumotoya is highly rated and a popular choice of lodging by both regular Japanese guests and foreign travelers.
