The Story
Takinoya ryokan, nestled among the leafy forests of southern Hokkaido's Noboribetsu resort area, is a glorious location to rest your eYes on the wonders of nature as you soak away your cares in some of the finest hot springs in Japan.
Whether you are after the healing waters of Noboribetsu onsen or the area's natural splendor, Takinoya is an excellent choice in any season. In spring and summer, the prime seasons in this northernmost prefecture, the area buzzes with visitors from all over the world, attracted by the beauty of the natural surroundings. Winter is somewhat quieter, with a tranquil beauty all its own, muffled by blankets of snow. Autumn is also a popular season, when the foliage turns from summer green to blazing fall colors.
Inside, Takinoya is elegant and tasteful - Japanese art, both traditional and modern, graces the interior spaces, which are outfitted in the lovely, spare, zen-inspired geometric simplicity of traditional Japanese design. The ryokan's hallways are floored with tatami, and guests pad around in bare feet or special socks, unlike most ryokan, where slippers are the norm.
The onsen baths boast five different types of water, piped in from the famous Jigokudani onsen source, with different mineral content, acidity and alkalinity to ease both body and mind.
The owners, the Suga family, have five generations of experience serving up their exemplary brand of hospitality, having operated Takinoya since its beginning as a small restaurant in 1918. Let them and the rest of Takinoya's staff show you what omotenashi, traditional Japanese hospitality, is all about.

Cuisine Dinner in the restaurant, Genseirin (the name means "wild woods"), is kaiseki ryori Japanese haute cuisine with a strong emphasis on local Hokkaido offerings, chosen to match the season and the view from the huge, ceiling-high windows. The fresh vegetables, mouth-watering beef and pork, and fresh seafood, are all done up in delicious, artful and innovative ways.
-
Kumoi-No-Yu Takinoya has two onsen hot spring bathing areas, on the top floor and the ground level. The top floor spa, "Kumoi no Yu," is a rotemburo outdoor bath which, with its cave-like dark stone walls and ceiling, appears to flow out into the woods infinity-style. With the water brimming and clouds of steam rolling off it, you can feel yourself unwinding a little more with every successive heartbeat.
-
Chien-NO-Yu The lower level spa, "Chien no Yu," has five different rocky bathing pools, each with a different kind of natural onsen water, such as salt spring, ferric spring (which is replete with iron), and sulphur spring, as well as different levels of acidity and alkalinity, to ease and treat a variety of ailments, from garden-variety aches and pains to neuralgia, diabetes and many other disorders. The rotemburo outdoor pools are down at the end of an adventurous path, a little chilly in winter, but worth it for the feeling of blissful warmth they impart.
