Guide
What visitors add
Outdoor bath & sauna
Two reviewers confirm an outdoor bath (rotenburo) reached from the indoor bath; one describes it as spacious and surrounded by nature with autumn foliage, the other says the source-water outdoor bath was so hot they could only manage the far end of the larger pool. No reviewer mentions a sauna.

One reviewer notes hair dryers and razors are provided. A different reviewer notes this is the only one of Sekizenkan's three baths with a proper washing area and multiple showers (the others have one shower each), recommending you wash here before using the other baths.
