Facilities, Dining & Access
A brief guide to hot springs, dining, and travel directions.
Facilities🎌・Hot Springs♨️
“Unzen Miyazaki Ryokan” has a history spanning 93 years since its founding and underwent a renovation in 2022. To help guests fully enjoy Unzen National Park and the changing seasons up close, every space has been designed to open up to nature— the scenery is one of our greatest assets. Our Japanese garden has retained its original form since the inn’s founding in 1929 and features three “Unzen Jigoku” (hells) within its grounds. In spring, “Miyama Kirishima” azaleas—some over 90 years old—bloom in full splendor; summer brings fresh greenery, autumn brings vibrant foliage, and winter offers snowy vistas.
Free-Flowing Springs from Two “Jigoku” Sources
Our hot springs draw water from the “Daikyoan Jigoku” and “Jaken Jigoku” sources, renowned for skin-beautifying properties. Enjoy a free-flowing system that fully harnesses the natural qualities of the spring water.
Metasilicic Acid (103.8 mg) & Spring Quality
Metasilicic acid is generally considered beneficial for skin health at levels of 100 mg or higher; our water contains 103.8 mg. The spring is a simple acidic hot spring (sulfur spring) containing hydrogen sulfide, and is said to be effective for acne, heat rash, skin irritation, and athlete’s foot—along with many other wellness benefits.
Garden: A historic Japanese garden (since 1929) with three “Unzen Jigoku” within the grounds.
Dining🍣
We make generous use of seasonal ingredients, including fresh seafood caught in the Ariake Sea and Tachibana Bay, seasonal vegetables from the Shimabara Peninsula, and Nagasaki Wagyu beef. Our vegetables are primarily organic, seasonal produce harvested on the Shimabara Peninsula, a major agricultural region. We also take pride in serving our dishes on tableware from famous Kyushu potteries, such as Hasami-yaki and Mikawachi-yaki from Nagasaki Prefecture, and Arita-yaki from Saga Prefecture.
