My parents and I stayed here over New Year's. The food was absolutely delicious and there was so much we couldn't even finish it all. Breakfast was so substantial it felt more like dinner! The room seemed like an addition, and the most disappointing part was the outdoor bath attached to our room. It was so incredibly cold that we couldn't use it. I felt like I was going to catch a cold just washing up! I really wanted to enjoy it because of the charming atmosphere, and I was so looking forward to it, so it was a shame. We went to the private onsen, but even there it was cold right after getting in. We quickly washed ourselves and then immediately got into the hot spring. It felt like such a waste to have a private onsen in the room and not be able to use it. I think it would be better if they installed windows or made it possible for guests to adjust the temperature according to the season.

The semi-open-air bath and the room itself were absolutely wonderful!

Private in-room onsen large enough for 2. Large rooms with separate seating area. Very clean and seems newly renovated. Breakfast and dinner are exquisite and of high quality. Spotted a deer on the grounds.

Hot spring is spacious and beautiful. But it gets booked out very quickly. Rooftop hot spring is a little bit inconvenient. Staff can be more patient and friendly when explaining things and answering questions. But overall good experience.

The hotel staff were very nice, and the environment was truly beautiful. We came on a road trip in August, and although it was very hot, it wasn't too hot on the mountain. The place was spacious, and the indoor hot spring was excellent. The kids loved it too, and we will definitely stay here again next time.

This is my second visit since May 2019. It was also really great. I was assigned the same room, but it seems to have been maintained more since then :) No, really, every corner of the wall or the open-air bath attached to the room It's amazing that there's not a single speck of dust. And the kaiseki course meal is... It's really the best I'll stay for 2 nights next time! The family bath was also great Shugetsu is the best, even in the rain The owner and staff are all kind🫶🏼👍

I made a reservation after much deliberation among several candidates for a family trip. It was raining, but they came to the parking lot, gave me an umbrella, and even helped me carry my luggage. The facilities were more satisfactory than I expected, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious Japanese-style. All the staff were so kind that I had a great night's rest. I want to visit again next time!

Hotel comfort does not doubt, subject to the geographical environment, adjust the mindset, after check-in the whole process in the room enjoy it, really just in the room enjoyment, maybe you can also go to two public private baths to enjoy, other facilities are lacking, drive outside the area tour do not waste time. It can be said that only suitable for self-driving and road conditions ideally come, snowy conditions before really a little not ideal, mountain roads to road through five hairpin bends up and down, at night there are no other lights except the headlights, to arrive before sunset. The portion of dinner is indeed a bit small, relying on a bowl of rice for the final sprint. Friends who are big eaters prepare to order some food and grass. See pictures before booking There are massage chairs in the room, full of joy after soaking in the hot spring on the chair to sit, cool! But it turns out that not every room type has it. The name of the room I stayed in was "Black Mountain", which was super disappointing. . . . The staff service was courteous and was felt from the moment the car drove in. The room has a kettle of cold drinking water and a household electric pump water heater. In addition to a body-type air conditioner, the living room and bedside also have a floor-standing heater. 10 points The average of this hotel is 8.5 points or more. It is recommended to consider staying for self-drive tours.

Kaiseki food is on the small side. It is recommended to buy some food and check into the hotel first.
