“Oedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Minoh Kanko Hotel” (1-1 Onsen-cho, Minoh City, Osaka Prefecture), which is set to reopen on October 1, is currently offering a basic buffet plan that includes one night’s stay and two meals. For two guests sharing a room, the regular price starts at 26,200 yen per person.
The hotel has evolved from the traditional “Oedo Onsen Monogatari Minowa Kanko Hotel” to the higher-tier “Premium” series and has been renovated along with the adjacent day-use hot spring facility, “Oedo Onsen Monogatari Minowa Onsen Spa Garden.” At “Tenku Yuya,” a panoramic bath reserved exclusively for hotel guests, visitors can enjoy the “Tenku no Tana-yu” bath, which offers panoramic views of the Osaka Plain from an elevation of approximately 180 meters.
The on-site Spa Garden, which guests can use as many times as they like from check-in until their departure, has introduced the “Mirai Human Washing Machine”—a state-of-the-art bathing device that garnered attention at the 2025 Osaka-Kansai World Expo—and offers it as a private bath available by same-day reservation for a limited number of guests each day.
A new “Premium Lounge” has been opened inside the hotel, where guests can enjoy cold draft beer and soft drinks anytime—such as after a bath. The Spa Garden reportedly features a variety of facilities for the whole family to enjoy, including a kids’ play area, relaxation spaces, a sauna, and a hot stone bath.
The dinner buffet features Kansai specialties such as niku-sui, Akashi-yaki, and kayaku-gohan, as well as seasonal dishes like sirloin steak and tempura prepared right before your eyes, and winter yellowtail hot pot.
