“The hot springs here are a real highlight, drawing directly from Tamatsukuri Onsen; the open-air pools and the morning switch in scenery added a dimension of serenity to my experience. With its dedication to local cuisine at the buffet breakfast and folk song performances, it seemed to reflect an authentic connection to the region's heritage. A very good choice for a relaxing exploration of Matsue.”
