It’s easy to reach by car. The room we stayed it’s in the main building, no shower in the room, will need to go downstairs for bath, but it’s a good experience to try traditional house. The public onsen is in another building, with outdoor view, small but cozy. Breakfast and dinner are well prepared with certain time. The ingredients are organic. The tastes are quite simple.

The rooms are all standalone bungalows with a rustic charm. We stayed in winter, and even with the air conditioning, it was still a bit chilly. Although there's a private hot spring, the view from it is practically non-existent – it's basically an outdoor shower. Since the shower is also outside, it was really freezing cold to bathe in winter! 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶 The public bath's pool view was also quite mediocre. Overall, it's a hotel where both the rooms and the views are pretty average. The food was decent, nothing spectacular but perfectly acceptable.

A boutique traditional guest house. Stayed in a cottage with private onsen. Lovely open public onsen and an outdoor area for drinks after dinner. The breakfasts and dinners were delicious!

Dinner and breakfast are great. Hot springs are tidy and comfortable. Rooms are on the 2nd floor but there was no elevator. Staffs are helpful with the luggage.

The location is suitable for those traveling by car. The rooms are fairly spacious and include breakfast and dinner. Dinner is served course by course to the room with explanations for each dish. Breakfast is served at a designated restaurant and is Japanese style, with good variety and taste. The onsen (hot spring) has an outdoor area and two private rooms. The private rooms are suitable for a family of three to enjoy the onsen together.

The experience was excellent, and the sukiyaki on the second day was delicious. The complimentary fireworks gave the kids a taste of summer from a Japanese drama. The hotel has two public baths and two private baths, which was more than enough.

It was very good. It was my first time staying in a traditional Japanese ryokan with tatami rooms, so I wasn't used to it at first, but I slept well and it was very quiet. The public and private onsen baths were both excellent, and the meals included with the stay were also well-arranged. Recommended!
