There is no bathtub—only a shower—but I was very satisfied with the clean Facility, healthy meals, and the open, nature-rich surroundings. There is a day-use Onsen nearby.

Honestly, I thought the price was very reasonable considering the in-room open-air bath. All the Ryokan staff were incredibly kind and attentive. I was surprised to see so many young attendants, but they were very professional and clearly well trained. The meals featured carefully prepared mountain cuisine rather than seafood, and you could really feel the attention to detail. The in-room open-air bath had a wonderful atmosphere, and we had an amazing time. Because each building is connected by covered corridors, you can stroll through the garden even when it rains.

Even when our dog barked, all the staff were very kind, and by the next day he had gotten used to the place quite a bit. It’s rare to find an Accommodation where dogs can be free inside the Room, so we were truly grateful for this Accommodation where we could relax just like at home for our first stay. Every meal was delicious, and they even prepared chicken for our dog, which made everyone happy. With various types of sofas and chairs in the Room, it was a wonderful Accommodation where both people and dogs could stay comfortably. Next time, we’d love to stay during the winter season.

This price for one night with meals included is an absolute steal! The Room was clean and spacious, and the thick towels were fluffy and smelled wonderful. The amenities were well stocked—better than many typical Hotels. And the dinner was unbelievably lavish! I was thrilled to enjoy dishes made with Iki ingredients such as sea urchin rice and Iki beef, but every single dish was seasoned perfectly—I kept saying “Delicious!” over and over. Choosing the Iki Kaiseki Plan was absolutely the right call. The portions were huge, and I got uncomfortably full halfway through, but once I took a bite I just couldn’t stop (lol). In the end, I finished everything! I think I ate about three times my usual amount. All of the staff were very pleasant, and it really stood out how warmly they spoke to us with constant smiles. We had a wonderful time. Thank you so much. I’m so glad we made a Reservation here!!!! If anyone around me is going to Iki Island, I will definitely recommend Ichifuji.

We stayed as a family of four. The bath was very relaxing, and both breakfast and dinner were delicious. All the staff were friendly, and we had a very pleasant stay.

The Accommodation was very clean and well maintained. One thing I wished it had was a chair. I’m used to working while seated in a regular chair, so I wanted somewhere to sit and work. Sitting on a floor chair felt a bit unsettled. Breakfast was very luxurious and delicious.

We stayed as a family of three with one dog. Until now, we had always traveled after leaving our dog at a pet hotel, but we felt sorry because he seemed depressed when we did that, so this was our first trip together. When I searched online for a “Hotel where dogs can stay too,” Shirakaba Club came up. It’s highly recommended for those who want to plan their trip around their dog. Even during meals, dogs are allowed to join you, which was great because our dog could relax without feeling anxious. We were also truly impressed by how delicious the owners’ course dinner was! The bath is an Onsen, and it left my skin feeling silky smooth. The room was spacious, so our dog could move around freely, and the interior design was thoughtfully done with lots of beautiful amenities. However, the inside of one drawer had not been cleaned properly; perhaps a previous guest left something behind, but there was food that had been left to spoil. The owner had plenty of interesting stories and we really enjoyed talking a lot. His wife was also very lovely. It has a warm, homey atmosphere and we’d like to visit again! Thank you very much for taking care of us.

I made a Reservation under a Plan that included access to a nearby Onsen Facility, but I was told it was a 10-minute drive away, so I requested a refund and felt really disappointed.\nHowever, I was truly impressed by the hospitality afterward.\nThe seafood grill included oysters, abalone, and crab, and everything was delicious.\nThat day, one young woman took care of us on her own. During our conversation, I mentioned that my second son had come with me during his birthday break.\nAs a surprise birthday gesture, she decorated a pudding and celebrated with us.\nThe miso soup was also delicious—I even had seconds.\nI really appreciated the warm hospitality.

The air conditioning was not very effective. Otherwise, the bed comfort and meals were excellent. I would like to stay again.

This was my first stay here, and it felt like the cleanest Business Hotel I’ve ever used. Not only the Room, but also the unit bath and all water areas were spotless, and it was clear that cleaning is thorough down to every detail. The most memorable part was how comfortable my stay felt. All of the staff welcomed me with smiles and were kind and warm. From check-in to check-out, I felt at ease the whole time—it was service that made me want to stay again. For dinner, I ate at Grill Kyo inside the Hotel; it had a calm atmosphere and the food was delicious, so I was very satisfied. Afterward, I went to a nearby traditional public bathhouse called “Kingyo no Yu” and was able to relax and soothe my travel fatigue. With its convenient location near the station, clean Room, warm staff, and great food, it was an extremely satisfying stay. When I visit Tochigi again, I’d like to use this Accommodation again.

The room was very clean, and we were able to relax and take our time. The meals were also very delicious. Our dog had an accident on the futon, but you responded right away by replacing it. We are very sorry. We would definitely like to stay again when we visit Toyama. Thank you very much.

Due to heavy snowfall the day before, I made a last-minute Reservation because I didn’t think I’d be able to get to work if I went home. Since dinner wasn’t included, I checked in after picking up some food. I was happy to receive one beer as a welcome drink. I headed straight to the bath—had the large public bath and the sauna all to myself, which was incredibly comfortable. The sauna was around 84°C; I did three quiet sets at a relaxed pace. The cold bath is always running with tap water and stays clean. There are two chairs. It’s very comfortable—a Hotel stay–only sauna where you don’t have to worry about other people watching. That alone makes it worth recommending. Breakfast is all-you-can-eat; I ate well, relaxed, and then went to work. I had a comfortable stay without being late, and thank you for the polite service at the front desk. You get service that exceeds the price. It was a great Hotel. I’ll use it again.

We stayed as a couple. Many Accommodations today try to satisfy guests by having everything fully equipped, but this place isn’t about that. Instead, the landlady who handles everything on her own offers such thoughtful care, warm hospitality, and attentive service that it more than makes up for it—an Accommodation that left us truly satisfied. The food was delicious, and we enjoyed local sake as well. They prepared an irori hearth and even set up a brazier outside so we could enjoy stargazing, and they also provided hot-water bottles—unique pleasures different from the usual stay. An Accommodation that satisfies the eyes, ears, stomach, and heart; we’d love to visit again.

Unlike a Hotel, it had a traditional tatami Room with an old-fashioned charm. Two of us stayed, and it was a comfortable Accommodation. There is also an Onsen about a 10-minute walk away, so it’s easy to see why this Accommodation is popular with riders.

It was a beautifully renovated Accommodation. The meals prepared by the owner were delicious. The children also enjoyed having breakfast in the courtyard. The owner is friendly, and very knowledgeable, so our conversations were enjoyable. Walking around Usuki was not crowded, and we were able to enjoy the charming old scenery. If we have the chance, we would definitely like to stay again and explore the town.

The meals—especially the BBQ dinner—were delicious. The Maeda beef steak was outstanding. Since we stayed at the Super Premium Site, it was convenient that we could drive directly onto the site. The spacious grounds also made our dogs very happy; seeing them run around excitedly was truly satisfying. It felt like a luxurious private dog run experience. The beds inside the tent were also extremely comfortable. The large public bath in the clubhouse was fairly standard, but I appreciated the free massage chair in the changing room. One downside was that although there is an air cooler and a fan inside the tent, they didn’t work effectively at all. (It was comfortable from sunset until early morning, but during summer daytime it felt like a greenhouse—unbearable!) I recommend staying outside the tent during the day. It was also very inconvenient that there is no toilet on-site; if you see this as part of embracing outdoor inconveniences (no toilet, no refrigerator, no air conditioning, etc.), then it might be acceptable—but if you advertise it as a Super Premium Site, I honestly wish basic comfort (at least a toilet and heating/cooling) were provided. (Especially given that it wasn’t cheap.) There is a small cabin on the site with air conditioning and it was wonderfully cool, but it’s so small and empty that I did wonder whether it makes sense to pay such a high rate only to spend most of your time in that cabin… After check-in there isn’t really anywhere else cool within the site, so you end up taking refuge in this cabin, staying in your car with A/C on, or going to the clubhouse… Since the tent itself is so lovely, it would have been ideal if we could have spent most of our time comfortably inside it. I also strongly felt how convenient it would be if there were a toilet inside that air-conditioned cabin. Since you have to walk to the clubhouse restroom each time, you need to keep reminding yourself to go before it becomes urgent. (Waiting until your limit might be tough!) Unfortunately we couldn’t see the starry sky at night because of bad weather—it was disappointing—but I’d love to come back for another try next time, aiming for a more comfortable season! All staff members were very kind and made our stay pleasant. Thank you very much.

There is also a large public bath, so I was able to relax. I personally liked that the loungewear included pants. There was no air conditioner, but the temperature was comfortably controlled by the central air system. Breakfast was delicious as well. The Onsen eggs were especially nice. I was able to get a good rest.

I stayed here with my dog. We had a Room with a bath, and although it was pouring rain, there was a roof so we could relax in the Onsen without getting wet. The private baths in the building also allow you to bring your dog into the changing area, so I didn’t have to leave my dog alone in the Room. The Room was spacious and spotless, and they even provided steps so my dog could sleep with me on the bed. The meals were Italian, and the local Izu specialty kinmedai (splendid alfonsino) was especially delicious. My dog’s meal was made with safe ingredients, so I felt comfortable letting my dog eat it. I would definitely like to stay again.
