KAGETSU HIGHLAND HOTEL
Kagetsu Highland Hotel is a hot spring retreat quietly nestled on a plateau 800 meters above sea level.
The milky-white sulfur spring, fed with 100% natural spring water without any added water, heating, or circulation filtration, is highly regarded by many guests as a “true hot spring.”
From the guest rooms, you can fully enjoy the breathtaking panorama—Fukushima City’s glittering night view to the east and the magnificent Azuma and Adatara mountain ranges to the west—spreading out before you like a painting.
Surrounded by the tranquility unique to Takayu Onsen, spend a peaceful moment feeling as if you were in gentle dialogue with the abundant nature around you.
About 2 hours from Tokyo and about 55 minutes from Sendai.
It is conveniently located so you can get there easily from anywhere.
Takayu Onsen, located in Fukushima City, Fukushima Prefecture, has a history of over 400 years. You can enjoy a “true hot spring,” drawn directly from naturally flowing source springs.
At this hot spring, the water is drawn directly from the source and offered completely unaltered—100% natural and free-flowing, preserving all its original therapeutic qualities.
Generally speaking, “kakenagashi” (free-flowing hot spring water directly from the source) may involve added water or a circulation system, but Takayu Onsen is different.
It neither uses added water nor heating, nor does it employ circulation filtration.
Confident in its abundant flow and superior water quality, the onsen places its true value in being “100% free-flowing from the source.”
Bathe to your heart’s content in this milky-white sulfur spring—one of Japan’s most renowned for its healing properties—and savor the pure luxury of an unaltered natural soak.
Takayu Onsen has established itself as a hot spring resort that can be safely enjoyed by people seeking “true hot springs” to this day, while preserving the ancient culture of therapeutic baths.
A feast of flavors unique to Kagetsu.
We bring you the finest seasonal produce from all over Japan, along with the beautiful scenery of the mountain village.
Enjoy a memorable gourmet experience with exquisite dishes crafted from colorful seasonal ingredients.
The ever-changing appearance of the Azuma mountains makes the view from your room even more special.
From early morning to evening, the view of the clouds spreading out below you is like a traditional Japanese painting, creating a dramatic and captivating sight that never gets old. After night falls, the city lights create a moving night view that will captivate you deeply.
Our hotel is a special place located at the highest point in Takayu Onsen. Surrounded by the tranquility of majestic nature, you can enjoy the ultimate luxury to your heart's content.
