Okuhida Garden Hotel Yakedake

This Japanese-style hotel has really nice hot springs, but the building and rooms are a bit old. There was a cooking smell in both the room and the corridor. Anyway, we had a good time and even enjoyed some karaoke! The dinner was exquisite with truly delicious wagyu beef, and the staff were very friendly.

The hot spring was top-notch, and the location was great for self-driving.

This hotel boasts an excellent location, right near the Shinhotaka Ropeway and directly across from the Black Bear Zoo. It's a fantastic value-for-money onsen hotel. Waking up, you're greeted with beautiful river and mountain views right outside the window, and there's a waterfall just a short walk from the hotel. They have numerous hot spring baths, and the mixed-gender bath is also great. The absolute best part was the dinner, which was a delicious kaiseki meal, and the Japanese-style breakfast was also very good. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this hotel.

The accommodation is close to Hira Onsen and has several hot springs, separated for men and women, plus a mixed-gender pool where you can wear clothes. The onsen is excellent and the food is delicious.
