Guesthouse Asahiro has been in operation since September 2024. Our company only directly manages two locations, but has opened four guesthouses in the past. The owner has stayed in nearly 1,000 guesthouses and hostels in 70 countries and four regions around the world for about 8 years, and has been operating a guesthouse in Japan for about 10 years.

Since this is a regular hostel, we do not have a parking lot. If you have a car, please use the free tourist parking lot around Yamanakaza, which is a 3-minute walk from our facility. We do not have a motorcycle parking lot, so please use the tourist parking lot. The parking lot near the guesthouse is not ours, so please do not park there. If you will be late for your check-in time, please be sure to contact us in advance. Please understand that we may not be able to check in if you do not contact us. Recently, we have been having trouble with many requests outside of the service at simple guesthouses, which are supposed to be self-service. For requests outside of the service, a service fee of 2,000 yen will be charged. Also, we may not be able to respond, so please be sure to check in advance. Our accommodation is a hostel, so please do not provide any amenities such as towels or toothbrushes. Hostels are facilities that are designed to be as cheap as possible and at your own risk, so please understand that there may be other inconveniences. Please bring your own towels or purchase them yourself at nearby supermarkets or Yamanakaza. Free tea and other items are available, so please use them.

This guesthouse is for travelers and hot spring visitors, located about a 3-minute walk from Kiku-no-yu, the center of Yamanaka Onsen, one of the three famous hot springs in Fuso, which Matsuo Basho praised alongside Kusatsu and Arima. There is a supermarket and convenience store within a 5-minute walk. It is an 8-minute walk to Ayatori Bridge, the entrance to Kakusenkei Gorge. It is also about a 3-minute walk to Yuge Kaido. If you are coming by car, the Yamanaka Onsen area is home to Yamashiro Onsen and Katayamazu Onsen, as well as ancient temples such as Eiheiji Temple and Natadera Temple, so you can use it as a base for touring around the area.
