Warm dishes are served warm and cold dishes are served chilled, so the buffet feels fresh and easy to enjoy before work, travel, or sightseeing.
The local highlights are Maccarello Pizza and Sauce Katsudon. Maccarello Pizza uses Sabastian, a canned mackerel product inspired by Fukui’s traditional grilled mackerel food culture, while Sauce Katsudon gives you one of Fukui’s best-loved local rice bowl dishes. The hotel’s feature information also notes breakfast with about 45 Japanese and Western dishes, including seasonal small plates and local food.

Onsen and Wellness
The 2nd-floor large bath area, Wakasa no Yu, gives you a gender-separated bathing space with an indoor bath, silky bath, semi-open-air bath, water bath, and auto-löyly sauna. The indoor bath uses water brought from Imasho 365 Onsen, an alkaline simple sulfur spring known for a gentle feel on the skin. The listed bathing benefits include relief for joint pain, muscle pain, and neuralgia.
You can bathe from 3:00 PM to 10:00 AM the next morning, with the sauna closed from 1:00 AM to 5:00 AM. The sauna includes auto-löyly, and the water bath offers depth levels of 60, 90, 120, and 150 centimeters, giving you a refreshing cool-down after heat bathing. There are also outdoor cooling chairs, so you can rest after the bath or sauna before returning to your room.
Guests with Tattoos
If you have tattoos or body art, you cannot use the large public bath at Wakasa no Yu. This applies to the shared bathing area, so plan your stay with this rule in mind before booking.
