It was a ryokan that satisfies everything, including hot springs, facilities, and meals. The free-flowing hot spring that I was looking for is outside the ryokan building, and there are three open-air baths, one for mixed bathing, one for women only, and one for men only, each in its own building. (Of course, the indoor bath is inside the building.) If the weather is fine, there should be no problem, but if the weather is bad or in winter, some concerns remain. The hot spring was a wonderful cloudy sulfur spring. I thought it was a sulfur hot spring with a strong sulfur smell, but it was a moderately weak sulfur hot spring. It was a highly recommended ryokan for those who want to encounter real natural hot springs.

When I got off the Fukushima Nishi Interchange and went up to the entrance of the Azuma Skyline, which is closed in winter, the smell of sulfur hit my nose. Adachiya is there. A pale, muddy hot spring boasting a history of over 400 years. As it is said to be the best free-flowing hot spring in the prefecture, the hot water overflows. The hot spring, which is the specialty hot spring, is so rich in hot spring ingredients, mainly sulfur, that it irritates the skin. Moreover, the bathtub, which is built along the mountain surface, is rich in rustic beauty and is one of the top ten open-air baths I have ever visited. The atmosphere of the inn is also good! The accommodation plan this time is ”Enjoy Fukushima's sake / pairing of carefully selected sake and food”. After enjoying the open-air bath, we were brought three kinds of appetizers and local sake for ”comparing sake drinkers in your room”. Sake lees cream cheese is ”Yaemon / Junmai dry”, prosciutto ham is ”Naraman / Junmai”, two kinds of sesame tofu is ”Yamanoi / Junmai Ginjo”. A blissful moment before a meal while gazing out at the light snow falling outside. All the recommended pairings are delicious! At dinner, 5 types of sake are served to match the dishes. ”Oku no Matsu / Junmai Daiginjo Sparkling” for appetizers, ”Eikawa / Junmai” for bowls, ”Tenmei / Junmai Ginjo Honsei” for sashimi, ”Suehiro / Denshoyama Haijun” for meat dishes and pots Rice”, and “Kokken/Junmai Daiginjo” for sweetness. The hearth banquet ”Yukemuri no Utage” has a wide variety of dishes, each of which is delicious. Of course, it goes great with Japanese sake. I drank about 3 go of 8 kinds of sake in total, but it was an irresistible plan for sake lovers. It is one of the few hot spring inns that will make you want to visit again.

It is a historic hot spring club founded in 1841. The emperor of Japan has also come to stay. There is a detailed introduction to this hot spring club on the first floor. It is endless to see. The large bath is also very comfortable and relaxing with the outdoor scenery. The meal is very rich and fresh, and it is wonderful to eat the banquet after the soup. Very recommended

We visited Sansuiso in December 2022 in the snowy weather. Four of us stayed in a suite room with private bath in Shisuitei, the new wing. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable with a bedroom section (with 2 ample sized western beds) that can be separated with sliding doors at night, as well as a very big tatami room where two more people can sleep on futons. The heating system was top notch with precise control, and I should mention the toilet was equipped with top-of-the-line TOTO washlet bidet with automated lid and flushing. I have multiple food allergies, including gluten (celiac disease), and my husband cannot eat eggs or dairy products. When I explained this to them when I made the reservation, they readily accommodated us, and I was thrilled that they didn’t simply skip some things, but carefully prepared special course menus to match our needs. Since my mother was going through chemotherapy, we had a private room for dinner and breakfast (plus we could add whatever we wanted from the breakfast buffet to the prepared meal). Both my mom and her friend said they felt like they had been treated to a fine restaurant for each meal. It was our first time to stay in Tsuchiyu Onsen; we stayed there for two nights when it was snowing heavily due to a big cold wave. When my mom wanted to go shrimp fishing or my husband wanted to paint kokeshi dolls, the kind okami-san (innkeeper) tactfully allowed us to take the shuttle bus to the venue and the bus came to pick us up on the way back to the inn. Bathing with a view of the snowy slope and waterfall was also wonderful. The shuttle bus from right in front of the Fukushima station is convenient, too. If an opportunity presented itself, we would love to visit Sansuiso again. 2022年12月に、雪の降っている中で福島駅からの送迎バスに乗って伺い利用させて頂きました。リニューアル後の新館である紫水亭6階の露天風呂付きスイートルームに4人で宿泊させて頂いたのですが、広々として清潔感がありとても気持ち良かったです。部屋は広く綺麗で、引き戸で仕切れるベッド部分と、布団で寝られる大きな和室があり、とても快適でした。暖房設備もよく整っており、お部屋のセクションごとに細かくコントロールできます。 私はグルテン（セリアック病）を含む複数の食品アレルギーがあり、主人も卵と乳製品が食べられないのですが、予約時に説明をさせて頂いたところすんなり対応して頂き、それも何かを単に抜くというのではなく、特別にコース料理の中でそれに見合うものを丁寧にご用意して頂いたので感激しました。母が病気のため夕食は個室、朝食も個室のコース（＋バイキングで好きなものを加えることも可能）で、母も彼女の友人も「高級レストランでお食事させて頂いたようだ」と大変喜んでいました。 土湯温泉は初めてで、ちょうど大寒波で雪深い時に2泊滞在したのですが、母が経験したがっていたエビ釣りや夫が興味があったこけしの絵付けなどに行く際、ご親切な女将さんが機転を効かせて送迎バスに便乗させて下さったり、帰りにはバスがお迎えに来て下さったり、心に残るホスピタリティーに満ちたお宿でした。雪景色を見ながらのお風呂も風情があり素敵でした。福島駅からの送迎バスも便利ですし、機会がありましたら、また是非伺いたいです。
