2-Star Hotels in Gunma Prefecture, Japan

This was my first and only stay at a ryokan so I don’t have much to compare it to. I chose this lodging because of the cats and good reviews on the food. The cats were really sweet and I enjoyed playing with them. I have 2 cats of my own so it was really nice. The food was so beautiful and delicious - the mushroom soup at dinner was amazing. I really enjoyed it. The private bath rooms were very convenient and open 24 hrs. I thought the facilities were clean and very pleasant. The location was very close to the central area and a quick walk to all the important sites including the bus station. The only comment I have was in the morning someone was smoking and the smell got ****** into the 2nd floor hallway so maybe more care should be taken to be sure the smoke stays outside. The host was so nice and sweet and I used google translate to ask questions. The matcha madeleines are so tasty I bought a box to take with me.

This was my first time going to Kusatsu Onsen. I had originally booked a different inn, but I changed to this one at the last minute because the reviews on other websites were very good, and breakfast was included and it was a little cheaper. After staying here, I definitely want to stay here again next time! The following is a long story, but I hope it was helpful. - About a 7-minute walk from the Yubatake. The inn is uphill from the Yubatake, but for someone in their early 30s, it wasn't too hard. Older people might get a little out of breath. - The inn only has stairs. The rooms only have a toilet, no bathroom. There are two private baths, and if they are available, you can bathe until 9am. Amenities include shampoo, conditioner, body soap, toothbrush, razor, hair band, samue, tabi socks, bath towel, face towel (no face wash or makeup remover) If you are planning to go to a day trip to the hot springs, it is recommended to bring a face towel from the inn (be careful not to forget to take it home!) The breakfast was so delicious and plentiful that it didn't seem like a light breakfast. It was filling. The building is like an old house, but it was meticulously cleaned I was impressed. There are few rooms and it is small, so I think it is recommended for those who want to stay with a small number of people. There are few reviews on this site, but there are many on a certain map, so I decided to stay there. Above all, the staff were very considerate, and I was very happy to be able to spend a quiet time even though it was close to the Yubatake.

Wow this place is INCREDIBLE I have no idea how it doesn't have SO many more reviews. This ryokan has literally the sweetest people, absolutely beautiful onsens, and YUMMY food. The room itself is very spacious and has it's own private view into a garden, and it has it's own A/C unit you can use - it's also very clean and included a full set of teas and snacks. The shared outdoor and indoor onsens are absolutely gorgeous, and overlook mountains in the distance. I went to 10+ onsens in Japan and this was the best hands down - beautiful with those mountain views, and extremely clean. The food was also so delicious, and I felt stuffed after every breakfast and dinner. I super highly recommend this place!

駅近で周辺に食事出来る所たくさんありました。高崎駅近くのホテル探しましたがインバウンドの影響？か週末シングル10000円↑の所ばかりでこちらのSuzuya Hotelに決めました。他のレビューでウォシュレットがないというの見ましたがやはりあったらいいなと思いました。漫画がたくさんあり一人で滞在するには良かったです。

The staff is very earnest and helped with the luggage and all. They just recently renovated their room with brand new air con unit and new smart lighting with remote and while the exterior may not look dashing, it is very clean and comfortable inside the room. The shared bathroom is clean and often empty as well as they have a few of them.

This is the best stay I’ve ever stayed It’s a family run pension with two super friendly golden retrievers, the whole house is newly built, extremely clean, and decorated with good taste The dinner and breakfast are western- Japanese fusion, everything is homemade, definitely worth trying There is a nice and clean private onsen, or you can take a bus to have a day trip to other bigger onsen Minakami itself is a countryside area, and the pension is right next to the bus station There is literally nothing around the stay, so you need to get everything you need in Minakami station, but I think it’s a characteristic rather than disadvantage

A very unique ryokan experience at Kusatsu. I've never seen wooden floors that shiny. The room is LARGE. Plenty of space that is also partitioned, and can sleep up to 6. There's a toilet in the room, but no shower. They've got a top notch onsen bath downstairs. The hotel staff were kind and used a translator to communicate with us. Location wise, it is very good. It's near enough to the Yubatake. Like 1 min walk away. But it's away from the noise and crowd and sulphur fumes. The perfect choice for guests who like to go back to the hotel for a short rest and come back out again

Wow! What a wonderful place, and wonderful people! I loved the view of the green rice fields out of my window, with a beautiful mountainous background. My room was great, clean and organized, had everything I needed. Location wise it takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the train station or to a nearby seven eleven. The train schedule is quite sparse, so time it correctly. (Or rent a car, would be the easiest) The hosts were extremely nice! Helped me in any way they could’ve for example in my checkout day, it was raining heavily so they gave me a ride to the station.

Opposite the hotel, there are about 10 free parking spaces, suitable for self-driving people, the hotel's large bath is only for men; In addition, the lady stays, if you make an appointment to a private style, it will be good. Breakfast is in 8/F, so the view is very good.

To begin with, the service counter that received us at the counter was very professional, well-mannered and accommodating! Then we were presently surprised that there was actually curry rice available for dinner FOC! The room was super clean and the view of Mount haruna was so beautifully presented right at our window. The hotel also have sauna that you can visit FOC from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m., 5:00 p.m. to midnight. Even breakfast are included! All these for the price of less than 40 Singapore dollars per night!
