Property information

Onsen Yupopo is a hot spring inn that enjoys the food and culture of Akita entirely! It is halfway between the small Kyoto "Kakunodate" and the mysterious lake "Tazawako". You can use the hot spring even on a day trip. It is approximately 10 minutes by car from Kakunodate Station, and a shuttle bus (reservation required) also operates! ※ All rooms are non-smoking rooms. ※ In order to go to the hot spring from the room where you stay, it is necessary to move to the building on the other side by using the corridor. ※ The staff can speak almost anything except Japanese, but we have a translator at the front desk.
