Ofuro Station Zen

Ofuro Station Zen is a peaceful and relaxing spa destination set in a natural environment. The establishment offers several baths and saunas, with three different thermal pools that have varying temperature controls. Located away from traffic noise, the spa is surrounded by mountains, trees, and a beautiful stream flowing through the hills, which visitors can enjoy by taking a dip. The water in the pools is well maintained, and water stations are provided for guests since the water is not drinkable. The property is currently undergoing renovations, including updates and a new sauna, with more improvements planned. Despite some infrastructure needing renovation and the property showing signs of neglect, guests still find the atmosphere very quiet and soothing. The open baths continue to provide a magical experience, complemented by stunning views of the river and natural waterfall. Guests have praised the friendly staff who offer helpful suggestions for pampering and making the stay more enjoyable. Many visitors appreciate the calm atmosphere, especially during weekdays when the spa is very quiet. The rooms are comfortable, some with Jacuzzis, and the management has recently improved, making guests feel more welcomed. Visitors also enjoy the nutritious breakfast with some variety each day. While the spa has experienced some changes since the pandemic, it remains a highly recommended spot for those seeking relaxation and tranquility. The ongoing renovations aim to restore and enhance its natural beauty and comfort, making it a favorite for many who appreciate the peaceful environment and beautiful surroundings.
