Yumotokan is a long-established hot spring inn located in "Ogoto Onsen." Ogoto Onsen has a history of over 1200 years and once thrived as a hot spring resort at the foot of Mount Hiei. The inn boasts two proud outdoor baths: "Tsukikoshi no Yu" on the top floor and "Yugensha no Yu," which is surrounded by a natural setting, allowing guests to soak while gazing at Lake Biwa. Additionally, there are two indoor scenic baths; one is "Kowaku no Yu," which offers views of Lake Biwa through large windows, and the other is "Sanmaku no Yu," where guests can enjoy soaking in the beautiful mountain scenery of Mount Hiei. The baths alternate between male and female usage daily, allowing guests to enjoy various bathing experiences. The availability of private rental baths is also a major selling point of this inn. The guest rooms include comfortable traditional Japanese-style rooms, Western-style rooms, and semi-suites with private outdoor hot spring baths, as well as the unique "Hanare Yashiro (はなれ葭蘆葦)" that offers a new Japanese inn experience.
