「極上湯の宿」に選ばれた! "Top Onsen" Recognition

September 17, 2009: メディア Media

新潟のキャレルと言う生活・暮らしの雑誌の「極上湯の宿16軒」特集に亀清旅館の100年風呂が紹介されました。

嬉しいです。

本当に嬉しいです。

今までは雑誌や新聞、地元のテレビなどで数回の取材がありました。「青い目の若旦那」と言う話題で。

今回は青い目の若旦那より、この青い目の若旦那の造った露天風呂が話題です。そっちのほうに話題になって頂きたいです。その為に苦労して、時間をかけて、露天風呂を造りました。沢山の人々が上山田温泉のお湯を上山田の歴史、周辺の植物の雑木林とともに楽しんで頂ける為に造りました。この露天風呂が雑誌の取材で取り上がれて、嬉しいです。

This month's issue of Carrel, a lifestyle magazine from neighboring Niigata Prefecture, has a feature on 16 Top Class Onsen Inns. Kamesei's "100 Year Bath" outdoor bath was selected as one of the 16.

This makes me happy.

Very, very happy.

Over the past few years, Kamesei has been featured in a number of newspapers, magazines and local TV shows. However, most of the time it has been about me, the American innkeeper in Japan. This time, the article is not about the American innkeeper, it's about the outdoor onsen bath that the American innkeeper built by hand. That's what I built it for -- for guests to enjoy Kamiyamada's relaxing hot spring mineral water surrounded by a tree-filled garden with a historical theme to it. It makes me happy that Carrel Magazine picked our bath in their Top Onsens feature!
