Thank you very much for your hospitality. This was my second stay, and the front desk staff were pleasant and made my stay very comfortable! I also became a fan of the breakfast curry—it was perfectly seasoned. If I have the chance, I would love to stay again just for the curry.

I have stayed at TAOYA several times over the past few years. This was my first time at Kawaji Onsen, and although it was only for one night, I had a wonderful stay—the atmosphere was quiet and the meals were delicious. Some of the staff were from overseas, but everyone was very kind and provided pleasant service. It has become one of the Accommodations I would definitely like to visit again, and I will recommend it to friends. (Just one thing: there is a large stone on the bottom of the open-air bath, and at night it’s hard to see where it is, so I felt it could be a bit dangerous. For that reason, I deducted one star.)

Conveniently located near the downtown area and within walking distance of the castle, making it perfect for a morning stroll. While the Facility is a bit dated, they have kept their prices unchanged despite the recent surge in Accommodation costs.

I needed a place to park my car until after 2:00 p.m. on the day of departure due to work, and they let me park for free. It was a huge help. I also appreciated the 24-hour coffee service and the treatment buffet (?)—both were great perks. There are still many things I didn’t get to fully enjoy, such as the relaxation area and the breakfast buffet, so I’d like to try the services I missed next time. For some reason, the washlet didn’t work, so I deducted one star from the Facility rating.

I had made a Reservation as a remnant of an event I didn’t win the lottery for. It’s normally very convenient with a direct line to Makuhari, and the Accommodation itself was so comfortable that I almost extended my stay. If I had to mention any drawbacks, it would be that I wished there were a mop to clean the shower room (I ended up looking around for one after using it), and that there are only a few basic shops nearby. If you need anything beyond the amenities, it may be best to prepare in advance before you arrive. In any case, I’m grateful to have started the day feeling refreshed. I’ll consider this Hotel for my next stay!

You can reach Nasu leisure spots such as Kinomata Gorge and Senbonmatsu Ranch in 20–60 minutes. The meals were delicious, and since it’s all-inclusive, we really appreciated being able to enjoy as many drinks and snacks as we wanted. Rooms on the 3rd floor feature free-flowing hot spring water directly from the source. It also leaves your skin feeling wonderfully smooth. The dinner menu had changed since our previous stay, and it actually felt like both the seasoning and ingredients had improved compared to last time. The portions were generous, and we were very satisfied. They also run a night bar (?), and we were told children are welcome, so our kids stopped by for a special summer vacation late night—and they looked so happy, as if they’d joined the adults’ club. Since it’s rare to find an Accommodation where six people can stay with an in-room bath supplied with free-flowing hot spring water directly from the source, we would love to stay again. We had a fun and comfortable time. Thank you very much.

Everything was clean and pleasant. Breakfast in the morning was excellent, especially the shishamo. I would have liked tomato juice.

The staff kindly assisted us when we left our luggage before check-in. The Room was clean, quiet, and allowed for a good night's sleep.

It was new and very clean. The location was excellent for going out for drinks.

I visited again because I had business in Niihama. First of all, I was happy not having to worry about whether there would be parking available—the parking area has plenty of space, including a covered lot. It was hot even on the day of my stay, but I filled my bottle with ice from the ice machine and had an ice-cold drink in the air-conditioned Room, and the sweat disappeared instantly. Some Hotels don’t have an ice machine, and when you have to ask staff for ice it honestly feels awkward, so having an ice machine on each floor is a huge help. Also, there’s a supermarket next door, which makes shopping incredibly easy. Breakfast was simple but satisfying; I especially liked the chicken cutlet with its thicker breading. The iced coffee in a pitcher was also exactly to my taste in both flavor and aroma. The bedding was comfortable and I slept very well. I’ve stayed several times and have had zero issues with bed bugs. This time I chose a smoking Room again, but the smoke smell wasn’t strong enough to need opening the window, so I didn’t open it even once during my stay. I’ll be back again.

I was truly impressed that the Room has a private garden inside and is set up so you can make matcha tea!! The lounge also offers detox water and a matcha-making setup, making it well worth staying here even for Japanese guests or Kyoto locals. I will definitely stay again! Thank you very much!!

Thank you for your kind hospitality, which made our trip truly enjoyable. From the Reservation stage, you kept in touch by email, and from the moment we arrived you took great care of us—guiding us to the parking area and providing a space to park our motorcycles. The hot water was excellent, and my skin felt surprisingly smooth afterward. This is an Accommodation I would love to stay at again. Next time, I plan to come with my touring friends as a group. Thank you very much to all the staff for your thoughtful care.

Located near Yugawara’s Manyo Park, the Hotel is a comfortable size and it was enjoyable to walk around inside. Dinner was a course meal served at the table, and the staff were efficient, allowing us to relax. It was great to enjoy both the open-air bath for Hotel guests and the one for general visitors. The front desk staff were also very courteous.

Outstanding value for money. It’s an older building, but the Room seems to have been renovated. The free drinks in front of the reception were especially appreciated during this hot summer. The woman at the front desk was polite and left a great impression. In the Japanese-Western style Room, shoji screens let in light, so if you can’t sleep when it’s bright, it’s a good idea to bring an eye mask. Breakfast is a nice set of rice balls wrapped in bamboo leaf and fried chicken—like a Japanese bento. It also comes with small side dishes, salad, and miso soup. Excellent value for money.

One night with two meals (breakfast and dinner) included. The food is delicious and features local specialty ingredients, letting you fully enjoy the charm of traveling in the area. The room is spacious and clean, and it’s very relaxing to sit on the balcony and enjoy the ocean view.

While there are areas for improvement—such as outdated Facility features, long elevator wait times, a washer-dryer that is not very effective (laundry dries faster when hung outside), and long waits for breakfast—we were able to enjoy the pool until late at night, the food was delicious, the Room was spacious, and it was a fun and fulfilling resort stay.

This was our first stay with our family of four and our Toy Poodle. Some Reviews mentioned that the property is old or has an odor, but once we arrived, we found the staff’s service, the meals, and the Facility to be more than satisfactory. We would like to stay again. Thank you very much for everything.

Dinner was delicious as well—an unusual style of half-buffet with robatayaki grilling—and the large public bath with an open-air bath was very relaxing. The staff were courteous and attentive, which we really appreciated. The Facility is a bit old, but we chose this Accommodation in Tateshina as the place to commemorate reuniting with my wife for the first time in 50 years, and we were very satisfied. Thank you very much.

The pool, location, Room cleanliness, and breakfast were all great. The kids were very satisfied too! If I had to mention one thing, we were on the 8th floor and there was a smell in the hallway (maybe from the air conditioning). The buffet staff also greeted us with smiles, and everyone was Japanese so communication was easy. We’d like to stay again.

The spacious grounds are surrounded by greenery, with numerous facilities that exceeded my expectations in size. The service was attentive, the food was delicious, and I felt the cost performance was excellent. This time I stayed alone, but next time I would like to visit with my family.
