wood fired sauna “yama”

(There is an open-air bath with free-flowing hot-spring water)
The sauna area, where swimsuits are required, has a men’s and women’s shared sauna and a women’s only sauna.
Both are hand-cut log houses made of Japanese cedar with excellent heat storage and insulation performance.
The heat source of the sauna stove is “new” and you can experience the soft heat that only new can provide.
Moreover, the water in the small pool (water bath) is spring water,
the same drinking water highly praised by the late Ken Kaiko.
The spring water is poured into the bath at a temperature of 14 degrees throughout the year.
In the sauna area, there is an open-air bath with a spectacular view of Echigo-Komagata and Nakagatake,
one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains.
The lukewarm spring water drawn from Ginzan-daira Onsen is poured over the baths.
The temperature of the bathtub is 33-37 degrees in spring and fall, and 38-39 degrees in summer,
but it is the best temperature range for an open-air bath after a sauna.
Floating in the open-air bath in the insensitive zone is a magical experience,
as if you are ascending to heaven.

ginzandaira forest park

The area around “10 Stories Hotel OZE Oze Jujo” is maintained as “Ginzan-daira Forest Park”
and has a cycling road, a promenade, and a hot spring facility “Shirogane-no-yu”.
The cycling path takes 30 minutes for a slow ride, and the promenade takes one hour
for a fit person and two hours for a slow walk.
Both have excellent views and are surrounded by Echigo-Komagatake
(one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains), Nakanodake (one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains),
and Arasawadake (one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains).
Bicycle rentals are available at Oze Jujo. The Kitanomata River, which runs beside Oze Jujo
(beside the forest park), is one of the most precious “protected water surfaces” in Japan.
As the name suggests, the protected water surface protects the natural environment and
fishery resources by “protecting the surface of the water,” and fishing and human entry to the water are prohibited. This is one of the oldest nature conservation activities in Japan, and was designated by the national government
in 1981 as a result of more than 10 years of activities by the “Okutadami Fish Growing Association
” formed by the late Ken Kaiko and local residents. Please do not enter the river,
throw stones, or throw garbage. The surrounding area, including Ginzandaira Forest Park,
is designated as “Echigo-Miyama-Tadami National Park.

Please read before making a reservation

It is wilderness and there are insects!

This is the territory of a wide variety of life: there are big char that grow to over 60 centimeters,
there are bears and insects, and in the summer there are horseflies and dayflies,
and in the fall winged insects and stink bugs.
In the summer, we have horseflies and grubs, and in the fall, winged insects and stinkbugs.
The staff thoroughly catch insects that invade the guest rooms every day, though,
It is impossible to shut out insects, especially stink bugs, that enter through gaps in the sashes.
Although we are more protected than in camp, it is impossible to completely separate
the human world from the natural world. Please assume that insects will be present.

It is not a perfect hotel.

Check-in will take place in front of the reception desk with a brief description of your stay in your car.
You will then go to the log cabin where you will stay by yourself.
We will not carry your luggage or show you around your room.
Please note that we will not enter the turndown either.
10 Stories Hotel OZE Oze Jucho is not a hotel that competes with conventional services.
Instead, we will do our best to support our guests so that they can have new discoveries,
experiences, and impressions during their stay.

No sumptuous ingredients are served.

Although the chef has a background in French cuisine, he does not use foie gras, caviar, or truffles.
Our course menu does not follow the typical flow of appetizers, fish, and meat dishes,
but rather emphasizes a flow that allows diners to experience the culture of Uonuma and Okutadami.
Ingredients are mainly from the surrounding area, but not necessarily “because it is close by.
” We choose ingredients that make you feel the dignity of life, the consideration for soil and water,
and the love for human beings. From the standpoint of animal dignity,
we also do not use Wagyu beef with terns, broilers, or eggs from chickens confined in chicken coops.

Please bring your own amenities.

Although we provide a full range of amenities, the amount of trash
from disposable amenities is unimaginable.
Moreover, many of the disposable amenities, such as razors and toothbrushes,
are made of non-renewable plastic products due to the mixture of different materials,
and it is heartbreaking to have to take them out of the trash each time.
We would appreciate it if you could bring your used toothbrushes, razors, hairbrushes, etc.
Of course, if you “forgot!” Please feel free to use the amenities provided.

No smoking in the entire building.

Smoking is not permitted on the premises. Smoking in the garden
of the villa suites is also prohibited.
If you are found smoking inside the room, you will be charged 50,000 yen
as a cleaning fee and a business compensation fee.
