Lake Shikotsu Hot Spring

A luxurious retreat where lakeside scenery meets silky “beautifying hot spring” waters

Nestled along the shores of Lake Shikotsu, this hot spring town offers healing in a pristine natural setting, with mineral-rich waters known for exceptional skin benefits.


Located on the eastern shore of Lake Shikotsu in Chitose, this serene hot spring area is surrounded by untouched nature and one of Japan’s clearest lakes.


As you enter the hot spring town, the fresh scent of pure air and the gentle sound of waves lapping against the lakeshore softly awaken the senses. With the lake’s mystical depth of 360 m stretching before you, the tranquil environment invites you to escape daily noise and immerse yourself in deep relaxation.


The highlight here is the renowned “beautifying hot spring,” loved for its smooth, essence-like texture. Soaking in the bath allows the warmth to slowly envelop your skin, providing a soothing sensation that melts tension from within. The water is said to promote hydrating and skin-enhancing effects, and is also believed to help with certain skin conditions—making it especially popular among women.


Alongside traditional inns, many facilities offer day-use bathing as well. Take time to indulge in the ultimate lakeside healing, where you can feel the breath of nature and the gentle touch of mineral-rich waters on your skin.
