KimDao travels to the snowy Noboribetsu Hot Spring resort in Hokkaido to experience a deluxe ryokan and Japanese hot spring onsen!
Surrounded by mountains, guests at the exclusive Noboribetsu Onsen Kyo Takinoya can enjoy the mountain forest from the large onsen or the open air bath called ‘roten-buro’ on the top-floor of the onsen. There are four types of onsen water used at the bath: sulfur spring, iron spring, radium spring and a salt spring.
It also has a beautiful Japanese garden which changes in the four-seasons and is immaculately maintained by the hotel.
