Water handling

The operator's current onsen page confirms that iron-rich spring water from the Nagahama Castle ruins area is used in the public bath and Shigaraki-ware outdoor bath. Private baths can be booked for day use, but the current text does not confirm that they have the same supply conditions as the public bath, so no such assumption is made.

Day-use admission is ¥1,500 for adults, including bathing tax, bath towel and face towel; ¥750 for elementary school children; and ¥500 for children from age 1 to preschool age. Hours are 11:00–14:30 and 15:00–20:00. Overnight guests have priority, and day visitors may be turned away when the hotel is busy. A 50-minute private bath costs an additional ¥1,500 per group, plus admission for each person; it does not face Lake Biwa. Tattoos are not allowed in the public bath. Mixed-gender bathing is limited to children aged 6 and under.
