ゆ処 (Yudoko) and ね処 (Nedoko),
Two Spaces Filled with Luxury and Extravagance.

The SPA SUITE consists of two spaces:
ゆ処 (Yudoko), which includes a spa area with a large bath, a barrel-shaped open-air bath, and a mist sauna. And ね処 (Nedoko), a spacious tatami area where guests can lie down and relax or nap.

The name ゆ処 (Yudoko) is derived from the Japanese characters "湯 Yu", meaning hot water, and "ゆ Yu" which represents hot springs and baths.
These characters have long been associated with symbols of relaxation and comfort.

Similarly, ね処 (Nedoko) takes its name from the Japanese character of sleep "寝 Ne", which has been considered the secret to maintaining both physical and mental well-being since ancient times.

SPA AREAYudoko

In a space which exudes warmth and tranquility through a wood-based theme, find yourself in an expansive bath area which features a "sleeping" bath, footbath, open-air bath, and a mist sauna - a comprehensive set of premium bathing facilities befitting the name SPA SUITE.

Equipped with spa items selected by ZAZENSO NAGARA, guests can experience the most luxurious time of "Yu (bathing)" at ゆ処.

Large Bath and Footbath: The spacious large bath which has a continual flow of water allows for a relaxing bathing experience even for a group of guests and is equipped with a "sleeping" bath and television. The entire area serves as a foot bath, so you can also enjoy foot bathing while reclining on the available benches.

Barrel-Shaped Open-Air Bath: You can enjoy a charming bathing experience while gazing at the garden, listening to the gentle sounds of nature, and breathing in the cool outside breeze from within the barrel-shaped open-air bath.

Mist Sauna: A completely private mist sauna is also provided in ゆ処.
Within low temperature and high humidity mist, you can feel free to warm up gently at your own pace and enjoy a sauna experience tailored just for you.

Relaxing Lie-Down Area Nedoko

ね処 (Nedoko) is a luxurious tatami-floored Japanese-style room furnished with a sofa and bed.
It's the perfect place for all types of relaxing activities: lounging, rolling around, sitting and more, making it ideal for moments before and after bathing.

You can also enjoy views of the beautiful inclined landscape and garden from the veranda, and savor traditional Japanese culinary treats cooked over the irori (sunken hearth) table.

A Time of Relaxation on Tatami Mats.: The entire room is tatami mat flooring and this creates a refined and serene Japanese atmosphere. Sit down or roll around on the tatami while conversing with family and friends in a time of smiles and laughter.

The Perfect Viewpoint of the Inclined Landscape^*2 and Garden.: The amazing view from the veranda uses the trees along the inclined landscape as "borrowed scenery". Enjoy the beauty of the changing seasons in the garden which is meticulously maintained by Kikusui's exclusive gardener.

Traditional Games from Japan's Playful Culture.: Have fun with traditional Japanese pastimes and games such as Hanafuda (flower cards), Otedama (bean bags), and Origami (paper folding) which have entertained Japan for centuries.

*2 Keage Incline: The remains of the world's longest inclined railway, measuring 582 meters in total.
The incline railway allowed a boat to ascend the height difference of approximately 36 meters without unloading its cargo.
It operated from 1891, however, ceased operation in 1948 due to the decline of boat transportation, leading to its abandonment. Its remains was designated as a cultural asset of Kyoto City.
It has gained fame as a renowned cherry blossom viewing spot in recent times, and it is famous worldwide as a photogenic tourist destination.
