Minami's tradition and hospitality, formed from its long history their inn, Minami, was originally
an annex of Minamikan, a ryokan established in Matsue in 1888. In Tamatsukuri Onsen, they
carry on a tradition of hospitality and the spirit of good service. A hotel guest can enjoy the steamy
waters of Tamatsukuri Onsen, one of the best hot springs in the Sanin region, and tastes their
traditional cooking made from local ingredients. It has over 100 smoke-free guest rooms, and
a guest may enjoy an open-air bath at the top floor and at the ground floor of Kasuien Minami.

I asked for a private in-room meal service, because I was worried about covid-virus infection. I was impressed by nakai-san
who prepared meals quickly. The amount of food is not too much, and everything is delicious. There is a celebration event
this time, so a "celebration set" was prepared by the Hotel. The Japanese garden in the courtyard that can be seen from the
room is also excellent. The public baths are on the 1st and 9th floors, and the open-air baths are surrounded by garden stones,
and the outside air feels good. The indoor bath on the first floor is very large. The semi-open-air bath, which is built into
the guest room, and flows directly from the hot-spring source, allows you to take a bath even at night, leading to a deep sleep.
All hotel staff are working lively. It is a facility I would like to visit again.
