Wakatake no Shou Bettei Sasane
Tochigi Prefecture／Kinugawa OnsenAn Accommodation offering the finest hospitality, with views of the Kinugawa River from every Room
A dream of a bamboo grove that gently cleanses the heart. A tranquil Stays that gathers the essence of hospitality, "Wakatake no Sho Bettei Sasane." The scenery is a feast for the heart. All Rooms in our Property offer a splendid view overlooking the clear stream of Kinugawa, allowing you to fully enjoy the nature of Kinugawa. Please enjoy a private and tasteful journey from the bottom of your heart...
Although it was the rainy season and we were concerned about the weather, we had good weather and enjoyed a comfortable one-night stay thanks to the excellent hospitality throughout the property. The meals were also delicious, with well-crafted creative dishes. We felt this is a Ryokan we would like to visit again in a different season.
トラジとトムちゃん 6/11/2026I visited Kinugawa Onsen for the first time in decades. This time, I stayed to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday. As soon as we arrived, three staff members warmly welcomed us, and I immediately felt this was a wonderful Accommodation. The dinner and breakfast were both delicious. The semi-open-air bath was amazing! My girlfriend was also very satisfied with the aroma massage treatment. Although we’re usually busy and don’t have much time to relax, we were able to spend a peaceful time at Bettei Sasaoto, and it turned into a birthday celebration that made both of us truly happy. Thank you very much—my intuition was right (laughs).
