Minami Hida Mazegawa Onsen Miki no Sato
Mountain forests surround Minami Hida Mazegawa Onsen Miki no Sato, also known as Hotel Miki, a hot spring accommodation in the countryside of northern Gero. The hotel is located near the banks of the Maze (pronounced mah-zay) River, and its facilities are open to both overnight guests and non-staying visitors.
Hotel Miki is the largest onsen facility in Gero and has more than a dozen baths. Some baths are infused with high-grade charcoal, fruit, or herbs believed to be beneficial for health, while others support metabolism by improving blood circulation. There are several saunas and steam rooms.
The hotel’s in-house restaurant Iwatsutsuji uses ingredients from the region, including Hida beef, ayu sweetfish from the Maze River, and vegetables sourced from nearby farms. Guests may select either Japanese or Western-style rooms for their accommodations.
