Hoshino Resorts KAI Tsugaru in Aomori, Japan: Soak in an apple onsen in the snow 🫧

· Hoshino Resorts has three hotels in Aomori: Oirase Keiryu Hotel, Aomoriya, and KAI Tsugaru. · KAI Tsugaru has only 40 rooms, which is much smaller than other onsen hotels with hundreds of rooms. Guests are offered Aomori apple juice at check-in. · The most special feature is the apple onsen, where fresh Aomori apples are added to the bath. The onsen bath is made of cypress wood over 2,000 years old, and you can smell the soft woody scent and faint apple fragrance when you enter the bath. After the onsen, you can enjoy a cup of warm apple juice. · The hotel also has a special "Nebuta Path," inspired by the Nebuta Festival held in Aomori every summer. You can also try embroidery for free and make a souvenir by hand. · We recommend the "one-night, two-meal" package, which includes meals made with fresh local ingredients. The restaurant also offers stunning views of the four seasons.
