This stay became a truly memorable experience. The staff welcomed us with warm smiles, guided us around the Accommodation with great care, and showed thoughtful attention to every detail—service that naturally made us want to return. We felt comfortable throughout our stay. The Onsen was, simply put, outstanding. Our Room had a private open-air bath that we could enjoy all to ourselves. The water temperature was perfect, and from the moment we stepped in, it felt as if all the tension left our body. Soaking slowly while looking out over the beautiful forest was pure bliss, and we enjoyed it many times during our stay. The amenities also had a wonderful fragrance and quickly became a favorite. We chose the sake tasting Plan, and each selection had its own character and was fun to compare. As a sake lover, I was especially happy to be able to order Hiroki Aiyama separately—an exceptionally rare bottle—so finding it on the menu genuinely thrilled me. It paired perfectly with Aizu dishes such as herring marinated with Japanese pepper leaves. Being able to enjoy such precious sake while traveling is a truly luxurious memory, and it felt like something unique to an Accommodation in Aizu. They also lend inflatable rings for the Onsen. At first I thought, “An inflatable ring in an Onsen?” but after trying it, I was honestly amazed by how comfortable it was. Floating effortlessly while soaking lets you relax even more deeply than usual. It made me appreciate both their creativity and their playful desire for guests to fully enjoy the Onsen experience. The inflatable ring left a strong impression—I could soak almost face-down in complete relaxation. The cuisine, Onsen, and service were all excellent; this wasn’t an Accommodation where only one aspect stood out—the entire experience was consistently high quality. Thoughtful care could be felt everywhere, and the whole place overflowed with genuine hospitality. People say travel is defined by where you stay, and this visit truly proved that saying right. From the superb Onsen and heartwarming service to the eye-opening inflatable ring experience, it became a wonderful trip filled with great memories. We would love to visit again in another season—thank you very much.”

Amazed by how delicious the food was! Honestly, since it’s in the countryside I didn’t expect much, but dinner was surprisingly good. Everything was tasty with Kanto-style seasoning, and the simmered sea bream head was outstanding. In each appetizer, you could feel the chef’s love for cooking. The local specialty, Iwakuni sushi, also had a gentle flavor and was exquisite.\nFor the Room, we recommend the second-floor corner Room where Uno Chiyo’s father once indulged in lavish stays.

We stayed for one night as a family to celebrate my mother's 77th birthday. Although the weather was unfortunately rainy, we were able to spend a luxurious and happy time together in the spacious room and beautifully designed resort-like space. The terrace was seamlessly connected to the interior, offering a sense of openness and easy access, which we really appreciated. The wide roof also allowed us to enjoy the terrace even in the rain. My family was very pleased and said it was wonderful! Thank you so much.

Due to the typhoon, it became difficult to stay on Kouri Island. Even after arriving in Okinawa, power outages and other issues meant we were ultimately guided to an Accommodation on Sesoko Island. Above all, the staff in charge were truly wonderful and kept us informed in advance by email and phone. We looked for other places as well, but we still wanted to stay here and held out until the very last minute. We couldn’t stay on Kouri Island, but they arranged Sesoko Island for us, and we had a fulfilling trip. The Accommodation was on Sesoko Island, but I’m sure Kouri Island is also amazing without a doubt. The pool, the Facility, and the staff—everything was excellent!

The location is convenient, with nearby convenience stores such as 7-Eleven and FamilyMart. The large public bath is spacious and relaxing, helping you unwind. Check-in was available from 3:00 PM, but when I arrived a little early and was waiting, the staff kindly told me it was fine to go to my room. Breakfast was also delicious, with a Japanese and Western buffet. I would like to stay here again next time.

I stayed here for the Expo. The staff were all very kind and accommodating. The breakfast was also very delicious. The Room was clean and comfortable to use. I look forward to staying again if I have the chance.

This was my first time using Obu Station. I stayed one night at AZ INN Obu near the station. As other Reviews mentioned, the building is old, but it was very clean. The breakfast was also delicious. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

This was my third stay. This time, there was a Shuttle Service for the first time, and instead of walking back and forth from Nagashima Spa Land carrying heavy luggage as I had before, I was able to use the Shuttle Service, which made things much easier. When there are many guests, the walls are thin, so I sometimes couldn’t sleep because I could hear conversations and doors opening and closing. However, on the day I stayed this time there were fewer guests, so it was quiet and comfortable. Since I don’t have a car, I can’t go to the main building, but they always provide complimentary breakfast bread and canned coffee each time, which I’m happy with.

We stayed in a special room. The service during the meal was excellent. We had the pufferfish course, and we would have been happier if it had been a bit more luxurious. Given the reasonable price, we were satisfied overall. Thank you very much.

The meals were absolutely delicious. Among all the guesthouses we’ve stayed at so far, this one was outstanding by far! We were also surprised by the very reasonable prices for alcoholic drinks. We were moved by the silhouette of Mt. Fuji glowing in the sunset from our Room, and by the moon and stars in the night sky. Thank you for such a wonderful time!

The receptionist was very polite. It was a 4.5-tatami Room, but it was quieter than expected. The kotatsu and futon were excellent. The bathhouse was conveniently connected to the building, but during the holiday peak, it was crowded. I would like to visit again during a less busy period.

All the dishes were very delicious, and every member of the owner’s family was pleasant and kindly answered our questions. The bath is an Onsen like a pool, and it was basically assigned a time slot on a first-come, first-served basis upon arrival; there was no second session, which was disappointing for someone who loves baths. The stairs were wet, perhaps because the previous guest didn’t dry off before getting out, which raised hygiene concerns. I understand that things like changing mats may be difficult, but some countermeasures might be worth considering. The Room felt clean, although the windows and other features show their age.

This time, we used the Kagoshima Travel Discount and made a Reservation for a Room with a private bath. Since we already knew from our previous stay that the food would be excellent, we looked forward to the day with excitement. The bubbles in the in-room bath were far more impressive than expected—what a surprise. We were told it’s possible precisely because the tub is compact. The large public bath alone is satisfying, but if you want an even more memorable experience, I highly recommend reserving a Room with a private bath. The food was outstanding again this time, and we were truly satisfied. This is an Accommodation we’d like to save up for and visit again. Thank you to all the staff for your consistently warm hospitality.

I got caught in a sudden rain shower before check-in and my clothes were soaked, but the front desk staff noticed right away and brought me a towel first. Everyone, including the housekeeping staff, greeted me politely and provided attentive service. The in-room pillows are on the firmer side, so if that’s not for you, it’s a good idea to borrow a pillow that suits your preference from in front of the front desk. I also appreciated being able to get plenty of vegetables at breakfast.

Stayed on New Year's Eve. The bath was simple with just one tub, but the Onsen was excellent. The room was a Japanese-Western style, spacious, and very relaxing. Meals were served in the dining hall with a wide variety of freshly prepared dishes that were delicious and highly satisfying. We also enjoyed New Year's soba noodles, zoni soup, and osechi cuisine. Considering coming back next year as well.

It was newly renovated and very clean. There were power outlets everywhere. I appreciated the hygienic touches, like paper cups in the washroom and disposable slippers. The provided shampoo and other amenities were from well-known brands, so I used them. It’s in a relatively quiet area, so I slept well. Since it’s a compact Room, it made me chuckle that the air purifier fit perfectly into the gap between the bed and the wall. I wanted to ventilate after waking up, but it was a type of window without any bars or guardrails, so we weren’t allowed to open it, which was a bit disappointing. The front desk staff were also pleasant. At checkout, they gave me some nice tissues, which made me quietly happy. I took taxis both ways from Otagawa Station: on the way there, Meitetsu Chita Taxi from the rotary cost 1,350 yen; on the way back, when I asked at the front desk, Daiichi Kotsu Shachi came in about 10 minutes and it was 1,650 yen. Even with both fares combined, my stay was cheaper than staying in central Nagoya. The lobby where I waited for the taxi was spacious with a great view—very pleasant.

I needed a last-minute stay and was looking for an affordable Accommodation, so I made a Reservation here. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much, but the moment I stepped into the Ryokan I was surprised by the stylish interior. The staff were very friendly, and the facilities were clean. The bath was the silky type I love, so it felt amazing. The ice cream after the bath was also fantastic. And above all, I was amazed by how many breakfast options there were! Desserts and drinks were buffet-style, and it was the first time I’ve ever had such a filling breakfast. Even when I tried to find something negative, there wasn’t a single thing—everything was perfect, including the price. I’d definitely like to stay again.

I was very satisfied because I prefer free-flowing Onsen straight from the source (I don’t like recirculated baths). For those who like natural hot spring water, the open-air bath seems especially highly rated. It’s also great that families can bathe together. All of the meals were delicious—nothing felt like an afterthought. I love places with a Showa-era atmosphere, so I’d like to visit again someday.

While visiting Kamikochi, we decided to extend our trip to the Kisoji area and made a last-minute Reservation. It was a small Accommodation, but it had a lovely atmosphere, and we enjoyed the bath several times. The sukiyaki beef at dinner was delicious. We also enjoyed the Kisoji area, and it turned into a wonderful trip.

The Hotel faces a main street and was very lovely. There were many events and activities; although I didn’t get a chance to try the food, they offered late-night udon and other thoughtful touches to enjoy. For parking, I used a paid coin-operated parking lot behind the Hotel.
