It was the best decision I made to choose this hotel! 1min walk to Dogo Onsen, amazing services, a beautiful traditional-inn-look with a modern twist and the Dogo Street just 2 mins and the tram station within 5min walk. Incredible breakfast buffet and Roten-buro. The massage chair in the room!! Couldn't have asked for more!

Had an amazing stay at Yamatoya Honten. The onsen was beautiful and really relaxing. One of the highlights was the all-you-can-drink bar right outside the onsen, such a unique touch that I haven’t seen anywhere else! The staff were fantastic, super friendly, and always happy to help. Would definitely recommend it!

Due to heavy snow and unpredictable weather, our flight got cancelled last minute. There was no way to get there for the scheduled date. We booked not only our room but also dinner and breakfast in advance. The hotel denied our request to modify the schedule and charged us fully, which was about US$1000.

The location is good. Only 5 mins from the Dogo station and just beside Dogo Onsen. Room wise is not new, but clean and is still on a physical key system. The toilet has a bathtub and hot and cold water is using two tap scrolling system. I didn’t enjoy my sleep as there was a constant knocking sound at the closet which doesn’t seem to be from next door so it gives me the chills. Else it has its own Onsen and provides you with free sake and sweets. Overall I’ll give a 3.5 / 5 stars.
