Kamenoi Hotel Aso is surrounded by the mountainous landscapes of Aso, with guest rooms overlooking the Aso Five Peaks and easy access to the nearby Sensuikyo Gorge. The hotel offers a wide range of accommodation, including contemporary Japanese-style rooms, family-friendly kids’ rooms and upgraded rooms with private open-air baths and saunas. The hot spring facilities make the most of Aso’s naturally silica-rich waters, with indoor and open-air baths, dry and mist saunas, mud packs and relaxation areas. Families can also make use of the Kids Park, an indoor play area inspired by Aso’s grasslands, wildlife and landscape. Dining focuses on regional flavours, with local specialities such as Akaushi beef and dishes prepared at the restaurant’s live cooking stations. With its mountain setting and extensive facilities, the hotel works particularly well as a comfortable base for exploring the wider Aso region.
