I have visited Dogo Onsen many times for work and private purposes, but it has been about 40 years since my father took me there when I was in elementary school. The hotel is located a little up a hill from the Dogo main building from the station and bus terminal, and is a little difficult to find, with accommodations and downtown areas mixed together. If you are using a car, the surface parking lot is small, so you will have to leave the key with the staff and have them move you. A fee of 800 yen per car is required. After checking in at the Western-style lobby front desk, I went to my room. I took a double room on the third floor. Although the guest rooms are about the size of a standard business hotel, they have a luxurious feel, perhaps thanks to the heavy wood furniture. The bathhouse can be accessed from the entrance next to the front desk, and towels are available in the changing room. There is a large indoor bath, an open-air bath, and a high-temperature sauna, but the open-air bath was under construction on that day (I didn't hear about it) so you couldn't use it, and there was a lot of construction noise coming from behind the seats until around 6pm. , this is where points were deducted. This time, there were 6 people staying for work, so dinner was a banquet meal in a private room, so I don't know the usual dishes, but I had breakfast at the restaurant with other guests, so I think it was very good. At check-in, you can choose between Western and Japanese food, and I had the Japanese food, but there were so many side dishes that I had to replace the rice. Decent staff will serve you food and drinks. Most of the staff at the restaurant and at the front desk were young, polite and refreshing. Although it may lack a bit of the traditional Dogo feel, I think it is a suitable facility for girls' gatherings and couples. Thank you a lot for your hospitality.
