Why we recommend it
The garden private baths are used when vacant rather than reserved for a fixed appointment. They are distinct from the baths in selected guest rooms: the operator states that guest-room baths do not use hot-spring water. Compare the exact room and meal plan, and confirm access needs before booking, particularly for the garden route to the private baths.
