“Friendly staff, nice location, free accessible to all Onsen outside and internally, excellent breakfast”
“Food. Onsen staff”
“This is a fantastic place. Everything was excellent! Amazing location, amazing hotel, very good value for money. Thank you!”
“The room with the private onsen is really cool, although the hotel has more than enough onsens.
The experience was amazing, taking us through the culture with in-depth explanations.”
“Traditional Ryokan very close to Snow Monkey Park”
“It was calm and very traditional, exactly as we hoped. The staff was so precious and sweet we didn’t want to leave. We would definitely recommend. We got access to public onsens as well as a private one🌟”
“Just wow, beautiful location, amazing food, the staff were lovely. Not sure you could find anything more traditional. A really awe inspiring experience. The onsen was soo beautiful. A shame that the men get the most time in the Momoyama section as it is jaw droppingly beautiful and would be so cool to watch the day break from there. Great that you can take photos in the morning before you depart. So atmospheric at night. Not touristy at all and full of locals. Scrub up on your Japanese before you go!”
“The room was fantastic and authentic and spacious!
The onsen was great!
The food was delicious!!!
I asked to extend my stay one more night, which was not a problem.”
“Very nice host! Feels like a family! Very nice traditional breakfast! Felt like my own room”
