Beckoned by the rising steam, when you go up the hill road you will find Myoban Jigoku. Mineral deposits called "Yunohana" are harvested in huts called "Yunohana-goya." The sight of steam blowing out from these huts, and from between the stones in various places, has remained unchanged since the 1600s; it is a visual poem unique to this land. Tourists who are just stopping by enjoy the shop (which this inn directly manages), the walkway, and the panoramic bathhouse. We are proud of the soft, rich, Jigoku-mushi Pudding we make here, and would love for you to try it at least once.
This well-established Japanese inn, operating since 1875, proudly conveys the traditions of the Meiji era, serving as an entryway to that time.
Myoban Bridge: a span filled with the emotion that makes you feel a deep history as you watch the steam rise.
The inn's interior has the essence of pure Japanese style. It sits in harmony with the nature surrounding it. Please relax in the warmth of our inn.
Hot springs gush forth from the earth. We cook with their steam. Please experience the hot springs through your skin and your taste buds.
From the spacious, Panoramic Bathhouse, and the family bathhouse available for reservation, you can see the big arch of Myoban Bridge, Beppu Bay, and even Mount Takasaki.
Our Jigoku-mushi Pudding, with just the right amount of bitterness to the caramel, and its rich flavor, will keep you coming back for more. Packed to the brim with the hot springs' spice, this is one dish we can really brag about.
Myoban Onsen is a famous historical site from which alum has been harvested since the Edo era in the early 1600s. You can feel the breath of that time as you stroll on the walkway.
