Nagasaki · Nagasaki city & Mt Inasa
Inasayama Onsen Fuku-no-Yu, Nagasaki
稲佐山温泉 ふくの湯(長崎)
A large day spa where you can gaze at Nagasaki's night view — ranked among the 'new three great night views of the world' — from the bath. Built on the slope of Mt Inasa, its rooftop open-air bath looks down over Nagasaki harbour and the city, which turns into a sea of lights after sunset. The alkaline simple water fills carbonated, electric and jet baths; there are several saunas and cold plunges, six family baths with rest rooms, a suite of bedrock baths (extra charge) and a self-service canteen. Adults ¥850 on weekdays, ¥900 on weekends and holidays, children ¥450; family baths from ¥3,000 for 60 minutes. Open late, 09:30–01:00 (until 02:00 on Fridays, Saturdays and holiday eves; last entry 30 minutes before), with no fixed closing days apart from maintenance. A free shuttle bus runs from JR Nagasaki Station (about 20 minutes), a big plus without a car. The classic plan pairs it with the Inasayama ropeway: see the view from the summit, then soak. 320 parking spaces; payment is mainly cash.

Nagasaki's night view from the rooftop rotenburo, open until 1 or 2 a.m.
Inasayama Onsen Fuku-no-yu is a very large day-use onsen at the foot of Mt Inasa in Nagasaki city — a mountain counted among the 'world's three new great night views' — and is the flagship of the Fuku-no-yu group operating across Kyushu. Its symbol is the rooftop rotenburo: sit in the water and the city and harbour of Nagasaki spread before you, and after dark the sea of lights called the 'ten-million-dollar night view' fills the frame, making it one of Japan's leading 'night-view onsen'. The bathhouse has several tubs in the great bath (main tub, carbonated bath, electric bath), multiple saunas and a plunge, plus separately the 'Fukumushi-do' bedrock bath (several rooms), six private family baths with rest rooms (¥3,000 for 60 minutes), a self-service restaurant with buffet, and rest rooms with manga — so a 'spend the whole day' visit from 9:30 in the morning until 1 a.m. (2 a.m. on Fridays, Saturdays and pre-holiday nights) is possible. The water is an alkaline simple spring, colourless and light with a slickness that leaves the skin smooth, and soaking late while watching the lights is the greatest pleasure. At ¥850 for adults on weekdays and ¥900 at weekends it is reasonable for its size, and towels and bath towels are extra, so bringing your own is cheaper. A free shuttle runs from Nagasaki Station about every 20 minutes (check the timetable), so travellers without a car can come, and free parking for 300 suits a rental-car trip too. It pairs with the Mt Inasa lookout (ropeway), Glover Garden and Oura Church for the classic Nagasaki course of 'sightseeing by day, onsen by night', and after 11 p.m. the crowds thin so the view can be enjoyed almost alone.
Claiming a night-view seat, and making use of the bedrock bath and family baths
Take the shuttle from the stop in front of Nagasaki Station (free; check the timetable) for 20 minutes, or park in the car park (300 spaces), and pay at the entrance (¥850 on a weekday). Towels and bath towels are extra, so bring your own; you use a locker. The bathhouse runs from the great bath (main tub, carbonated bath, electric bath) and sauna and plunge up the stairs to the rooftop rotenburo. The 'night-view seats' in the rooftop rotenburo — the rim seats by the railing — are the best places, so arriving 30 to 60 minutes before sunset, claiming one, washing, and then spending the hour in which dusk turns to lights in the rotenburo is the finest way to use this onsen. The water is a 41–42°C alkaline simple spring, light and slick, good for two or three soaks of 20–30 minutes while watching the view. The 'Fukumushi-do' bedrock bath (extra) has several rooms and, used alternately with the sauna, produces strong sweating; families can hire a private family bath with a rest room (¥3,000 for 60 minutes, ¥4,300 for 90; six rooms) to enjoy the view without worrying about other people. Eat Nagasaki champon, sara-udon or a set meal in the self-service restaurant (buffet included), and the rest rooms and manga corner allow long rests between soaks. With hours until 1 a.m. (2 a.m. on Fridays, Saturdays and pre-holiday nights) you can come after dinner just for a 'night onsen', and after 11 p.m. it is quietest. Notes: towels extra (bring your own); weekend and holiday evenings are crowded (a wait for night-view seats); check the last shuttle; the bedrock bath and family baths cost extra and reservations are advised; no bathing after drinking.
