Takaragawa Onsen Ousenkaku

Takaragawa Onsen Ousenkaku

📍 1899 Fujiwara, Minakami
★★★ 9.0 (142 reviews)

"The lack of a private toilet in the bedroom is quite uncomfortable. The staff was very helpful and polite. The dinner wasn't very good and the portions quite small. However the onsen are beautiful."

Minakami Hotel Juraku

📍 665 Yubara, Tone District, Minakami
★★★ 9.3 (34 reviews)

"The dinner and breakfast buffets are the best! I was impressed by the luxury of the live kitchen. The French toast and homemade rice balls for breakfast are a must-try! There is free flow, and they also offer a wide range of services such as beer and ice cream after the bath. The staff were very friendly, and I would definitely like to stay here again."

Oyado Matsubaya

📍 669 Obinata, Tone District, Minakami
★★ 8.2 (3 reviews)

"Feel like home is an old-fashioned ryokan, but the interior looks clean and modern. The owner takes good care of you like you are family. There is a large public bath separated for men and women. The room is large and not cramped. If I come again, I will book here again. Recommended."

Houshi Onsen Chojukan

Houshi Onsen Chojukan

📍 650 Nagai, Tone District, Minakami
★★★★ 8.9 (28 reviews)

"Nice rooms, good country location, excellent kaiseki dinners. Staff were helpful. Great onsen - large mixed bathing area, also fabulous small outdoor hot pool with little waterfall - separate times for male and female. Only 20 minutes away by car is the lovely craft village Takumi No Sato. Well worth a visit. Only major disappointment was that the wifi did not work in the rooms ( despite what *********** said on our reservation form) so had to go to communal lounge near the office to get reception."

Ryokan Tanigawa

Ryokan Tanigawa

📍 524-1 Tanigawa, Tone District, Minakami
★★★ 9.3 (7 reviews)

"I visited this inn for work. The sister inn Senjyuan was really good, so I decided to stay here this time! I wanted to relax by myself, so I booked one with an open-air bath. I made a reservation on the day, but they were flexible in their response. The hospitality was reminiscent of Senjyuan, from the moment I arrived until the time I was shown around. The food was also very satisfying, and made generous use of local ingredients. I really enjoyed this traditional hot spring inn."

"I want to echo Kate M.’s review from a few months ago, especially as I found its age to be rather charming! My single night here had me wishing I booked for a longer stay to take advantage of what this place had to offer! After seeing how much the explosion in tourism numbers have pushed up hotel rates around the Kanto region (especially for the weekend I was there!) I decided to explore further afield and found myself here. I ended up upgraded to a river view room which provided beautiful views of the gorge and the town across the gorge. As with typical Japanese-style rooms, I would find the futons laid out by housekeeping and ready to go once I’d arrive back from the dinner that was a more traditional affair while breakfast was the typical buffet spread but with local dishes and ingredients as well as Western options. I was only able to try one onsen (Okutone Hachiyu) which was refreshing, though unfortunately it seemed that the outdoor section of the bath was closed when the onsen first opened for the day. I guess it’s all the more reason to return! As expected, the staff were wonderful and truly made me feel welcome despite being what appeared to be the only foreign guest staying there that night. I definitely appreciated the shuttle van they offered that would connect either with Minakami Station or Jomo-Kogen and was able to coordinate pickup times in English with both Japanese and international staff ready to help with any questions leading up to and during the stay. I’d definitely come back here if I somehow find my way back to the area as one night truly didn’t do justice for this amazing property!"

📍 107 Sarugakyo Onsen, Minakami-Machi, Tone-Gun, Gunma 379-1403, Minakami
★★★ 7.9 (6 reviews)

"So many little things that make this hotel much better than anything else. The way they show you to your room, the way they put your shoes away and bring them back on your departure date, the way dinner and breakfast is waiting for you at your own private table, the way they let couples share an onsen during quiet hours. My point is - you will feel like a VIP here. The staff and always there, taking care of you in subtle ways, but you never feel watched or intruded on. This kind of invisible service - maybe hard for westerners to understand, but it is excellent. You will feel like you are really being understand and looked after. Highly recommend. Best hotel service I've had in japan in 2 years of living here. Highly recommended."

"Amazing! Polite staff, quite hotel, free parking, private onsen, bathouse, and balconies. Very nice hotel."

"The place was clean and the hot springs were great, but when we arrived for dinner, which was supposed to start at 6:30 pm, it wasn't ready. We were kept waiting, and even after being seated, it took over 30 minutes for the shabu-shabu pot and meat to arrive... some people waited for an hour. The website showed luxurious tempura and other dishes, but all we got was shabu-shabu, sushi, simmered dishes, and jelly. Breakfast was also disappointing, and this was with two meals included, costing over 10,000 yen per person compared to a room-only stay! And to top it all off, there were only about five staff members, so I wonder how they plan to get through a public holiday... All the staff were foreigners, and their Japanese was broken. It was heartbreaking to see one person working so hard and apologizing. It's such a shame, especially since they said they were trying to make a living by renovating a closed-down inn."

"The purpose of the stay was to stay at an inn, and I made a reservation for the new annex for the first time in 11 years. I felt "Ah, it's nostalgic." There were only a few rooms, and it was a very quiet environment surrounded by greenery, and the food, baths, and hospitality were all great, so I was able to relax. I think the new annex will be popular with the younger generation. Of course, it was refreshing for us in our 70s. The foreign staff who looked after us during meals seemed to have a lot to learn, but they were young and hard-working, and we had a fun conversation."

"When there was a test drive event for a new ski model, the inn I usually stay at was full, so I went to Minakami and stayed there for the first time. I just checked the price and went there without doing much research. I thought it would be enough if I could eat and sleep, but the inn was better than I expected. The hot spring in the large bath is free-flowing and circulated, but there is no chlorine, so the water was kept in relatively good condition. The family bath that I was able to bathe in the next morning was free-flowing, so this was definitely a step above. The guest room was open and faced the Tone River. It was nice and spacious. I was impressed that I would get grilled crab for dinner at this price (lol). I guess they can do this because it is an inn run by the Public Servant Mutual Aid Association. The other dishes were also freshly cooked and brought to us each time, and although they were not particularly luxurious, they were all delicious. There was a ski drying room next to the front desk, and although it was far from the ski resort, it was perfect for skiing. If there are any vacant rooms, you can use them even if you are not a public servant, so there is no reason not to use them. However, if you expect the kind of hospitality you would expect from a traditional inn or hotel, you will be disappointed, so it's best to keep that in mind. It wasn't that the staff were rude, but the overall service was more like that of a government office."

"You can tell that the place is very well cleaned. Table tennis: No reservation necessary if there's space available. The ventilation fan in the room is loud, so it might be a good idea to turn it off when you go to sleep."

"This was truly the first time in years I'd received such genuine hospitality at a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn). The attentiveness of the staff and the quality of service were superb!"

Houshi Onsen Chojukan ★★★★
"An amazing place which naturally loses some points on location, but that’s its uniqueness. The history and Meiji architecture makes it an absolute alternative hotel, with the historical onsens with snow seeping in an absolute heaven. Staff service was impeccably Japanese. Only downside was there being beetle like bugs and spiders all over the onsen with sticky tapes provided in the room for self-capture. Maybe an inevitable situation unfortunately."

"What a surprise. A gem. Spacious room. Small hot bath on the terrace with a view on the river. Initially, looking at the dining room, I thought food would be basic. BUT the set menu was really really good. 10/10. 1 michelin star. A series of small so well presented european dishes with a small touch of Japanese cuisine. Une oeuvre d'art. Excellent. Breakfast, Japanese or European. Excellent too. Staff was great too. We will definitely come back."
