Buddha’s Bath provides foreign travelers (gaijin) to Japan with the information and tools necessary to make the best travel choices regarding traditional Japanese inns offering hot springs baths (onsen-ryokan), as well as visiting tourist attractions.

Our exclusive Lotus Score rating on over 750 onsen-ryokan across Japan (in nearly 200 popular onsen areas) is the only travel tool available online that provides a simple overall number to help compare the key factors most important to a foreign traveler when assessing onsen-ryokan properties.

Start your onsen-ryokan search with Buddha’s Bath and visit the other travel sites later!

Buddha’s Bath also provides information on tourist attractions in 15 major tourist cities around Japan and a collection of hundreds of interesting photos to aid in your research.

Enjoy your visit to Japan and come back and let us know what you thought about the onsen-ryokan you visited by providing a Hot or Not? Guest Rating.  You can also share with other readers your Japan photos on your very own My Bath webpage!
