Experience unparalleled relaxation at the Resort Hotel surrounded by the majestic nature of Zao National Park.
竹泉荘 CHIKUSENSO ONSEN is a Resort Hotel with 30 Rooms located 2 hours by bullet train from Tokyo, nestled in a 20,000-tsubo national park at the foot of Mount Zao.
Because it’s close to Zao, this was my first stay at this Accommodation. To put it mildly, it’s one of the best Accommodations I’ve ever stayed at. It’s fairly large, so the interiors and lobby are well appointed, but above all it’s quiet and comfortable. The large public bath with an open-air bath is excellent as well, and the teppanyaki cuisine was outstanding. There was nothing to complain about. The service struck just the right balance of attentiveness and distance, and everything was impeccably clean—I truly enjoyed my stay.
ohuzim 8/11/2026We stayed for two nights as a couple.At first, we made a Reservation through Chikusenso’s website, but there was a limited-time offer on IKYU, so we switched and made the Reservation via IKYU.As our stay approached, Chikusenso contacted us to confirm. Although we did not note on IKYU that we do not like seafood, they kindly called to double-check because our canceled Reservation on their website mentioned it. We truly appreciated this thoughtful attention.Dinner was kaiseki cuisine, and even without any seafood it was just as delicious as the standard course.We also felt the considerate care of all the staff and were able to relax.The Onsen left our skin silky smooth and warmed us through to the core.
