What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Amazing Onsen Experience

I had a fantastic time at the onsen; it featured a great variety of pools both indoor and outdoor. The setting was beautiful, especially being able to relax under the open sky. The staff were extremely helpful, guiding me through the locker room and explaining everything I needed to know. This onsen is clearly a favorite with locals, which speaks volumes about its quality!

Delicious Breakfast

I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast offered at the hotel. There was a wide variety of options, from rice and eggs to delicious fish and fresh juices. It set a perfect tone for the day, filling and satisfying. The dining area did get crowded, which was a bit overwhelming, but the food quality was excellent!

Cozy Room with Essentials

The room was cozy, equipped with a small refrigerator and tea-making facilities. While the bathroom was on the smaller side, it had all the essential amenities. I appreciated the cleanliness of the bedding and comfort of the mattress, making for a restful night after a long day.

I had a lovely getaway at this spa resort, which offers a great onsen experience and is conveniently close to shops and restaurants. The spacious room was a pleasant surprise, especially considering typical Japanese accommodations. The staff, particularly Kato, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. However, my experience at the dining facilities wasn’t as memorable, and I faced a few challenges finding the hotel at night.

During my short stay, I found that this hotel was functional but very dated, with a room that didn't meet my expectations for cleanliness. However, the location was a highlight, as it was close to many great bars and restaurants. The staff made a positive impression with their courteous service, though overall the hotel felt more suited for Japanese business travelers than for Western tourists like myself.
