We chose this Hotel after reading Reviews and checking the price. All of the staff were kind, and the check-in explanation was very easy to understand. The Room was spacious, clean, quiet, and comfortable for a relaxing stay. We were very satisfied because we could enjoy both Taiko no Yu and the Hotel’s Onsen! After getting tired from walking up the hill before arriving at the Hotel, the cold welcome drink was perfect! Our whole family was happy with our stay. Thank you!

The food was excellent. Each dish had a unique local touch, and even though we ate until we were full, it didn’t feel heavy. We really appreciated the thoughtful hospitality. It was easy to ask for advice on how to spend our time, and this is an Accommodation we’d love to stay at again in a different season.\nThe stairs are steep, so you need to be careful, but I’d still like to bring my mother.

I treated myself to a luxurious solo stay in a Room with a private open-air bath. From the deck, I could see fireflies flying right in front of me, and the bath temperature was just right for a long soak. I used it many times during my stay. Meals were served in a private dining room, so I could relax and take my time. There was an incredible amount of food, but everything was delicious, so I finished it all! There is both an indoor public bath and an open-air bath, and I tried both. The open-air bath requires going up and down quite a lot of stairs. Since the indoor public bath also has an open-air section, that alone might be enough. The layout inside the building is a bit complicated. The elevator only goes up to the second floor, but my Room was on the first floor, so each time I had to get off the elevator and use stairs to move around. If you have trouble with your legs or back, it may be better to request a Room on the second floor or higher (though Rooms with private open-air baths may only be on the first floor). I also wished there were an outlet by the bed for charging my phone (I ended up forcing it by plugging in behind the TV). On departure, I even received what seemed like a handmade souvenir. It was an Accommodation with truly warm hospitality. I’d love to visit again.

I visited with my daughter, and from start to finish we were able to relax and enjoy a comfortable, unhurried stay. The Room was clean and simple yet well equipped with everything we needed, and the private open-air bath in the Room—available as many times as we liked at any hour—was truly soothing. The meals were excellent, especially the rice, and we enjoyed hearty dinners and breakfasts. We were also allowed to bring our own alcohol, so we brought a local wine; glasses were kindly provided, and it seemed other guests also brought their own drinks and enjoyed them in their own way. The proprietress’s hospitality was thoughtful without being overbearing—she checked in at just the right moments with a gentle word—and the pleasant atmosphere throughout made this a wonderful Accommodation that I’d love to visit again next time with my husband.

Although it was hot outside in summer, the Hotel Room felt fresh and comfortable. With a semi-open-air Onsen bath, we relaxed and toasted as a couple while looking out at the deep-blue sea with a cold canned beer in hand—it made us feel truly happy. We enjoyed the Onsen many times until around 10:30 a.m. the next morning. Since we are both over 60, we were able to stay at a discounted rate. For dinner, we went to the neighboring seafood market “Mushigamaya,” which is also highly recommended. The Hotel breakfast can be delivered to your Room; it was delicious and my wife was very pleased. We would like to stay again.

The baths were so relaxing that I enjoyed them seven times in total (across the two different spring types). The meals were also delicious and very generous, and I was completely full at both dinner and breakfast. I was impressed by the thoughtful touches as well, such as the post-bath lounge area, chilled water in the Room, and complimentary coffee after breakfast. Thank you very much—I would love to visit again.

This Hotel is very cozy and located in a quiet riverside area. It’s a short walk to the center of Jozankei, but it’s perfect for a post-meal stroll, and you can also enjoy the illuminated Toyohira River. The meals focus on quality over quantity; each dish made the most of its ingredients, and everything was delicious. The Onsen bathing area is on the smaller side, but since this Ryokan has only a few Rooms, it never felt crowded (weekday Monday stay during Obon week).

For our 40th wedding anniversary, we searched for a place where we could relax in an Onsen and enjoy a delicious French dinner, and this Hotel came up. Hoping—just a little—that there might be a celebratory chocolate message plate with dessert, we visited Tamana Onsen for the first time. Dinner was beautifully presented and delicious, and we were more than satisfied—but after the course dessert and coffee, to our surprise, a cake plate arrived!! We truly weren’t expecting that much, so we were overwhelmed with emotion and almost brought to tears. And the cake itself—the whipped cream was exquisitely tasty. The quality was exactly what you’d expect from a Hotel cake! On top of that, the message lettering was beautifully done, the chocolate was delicious as well, and we were once again impressed by the pastry chef’s craftsmanship. The Onsen was spacious with free-flowing water, and it was lovely to see it decorated with traditional Japanese umbrellas and bamboo lanterns. It also felt wonderful to be greeted so warmly by all of the staff. The next day, we walked to Riganji Park’s footbath and enjoyed the cherry blossoms at Jagatani Park—making the most of our first visit to Tamana. We’ve both been busy working full-time for years and had never stayed at an Onsen Accommodation on our actual anniversary day before, so this became a truly special occasion—our most memorable since our wedding. We are deeply grateful to all of the Hotel staff for creating such a wonderful celebration. Thank you very much! Next time, we’ll be sure to visit again with friends and family.

We stayed here on the first night of our two-night trip to Yamagata. The food was excellent, and we were able to try the imoni stew we had been looking forward to at breakfast. The bath was spacious and relaxing, and the garden was beautiful. My spouse and I were both very satisfied. The welcome tama-konnyaku was delicious as well.

The hot spring quality was excellent, and the view from the open-air bath was wonderful. The staff’s hospitality was also very satisfying. The food was delicious, and I think this Accommodation offers great value for money. In January, I’d like to come to Hokkaido for a Multiple Night Stay.

This was our fourth stay, and this time we stayed in a newly opened guest room that was added this August. The amenities, facilities, spaciousness, balcony with an open-air bath, and access to the top-floor lounge—everything made us glad we made the Reservation. The staff were all very courteous, and we had a comfortable stay. Dinner was delicious. I didn’t have much of an appetite at breakfast (perhaps because I ate too much the night before), but I felt the selection was a little limited. This time, three of us stayed together. Although it was only for one night, bedding was prepared in both the Japanese-style and Western-style areas of the room, so we were able to relax very well. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

The August kaiseki let us really feel the season, and we enjoyed it not only for the taste but also with our eyes. The portion of meat was just right for us. We ordered sake again this time, but… when sipping it little by little, it becomes slightly lukewarm toward the end. At some Ryokan, they serve it with ice in a container of some kind. It looks refreshing, and being able to drink it cold until the very end is the best. I’m not saying you need to improve it right away, but I hope you will consider it in the future. Sorry for such a demanding comment.. We were able to have another wonderful time this time as well. Thank you very much.

Everything was outstanding!! Nothing to complain about!! We will definitely stay again!! On the way home, we were already discussing when to make our next Reservation. The food in particular was truly delicious and wonderful.

I have stayed at several all-inclusive Accommodations in the past, but your Hotel truly impressed me with so many creative ideas. In particular, my grandchildren were thrilled—it was their first time making parfaits after breakfast. I had certain expectations in advance based on Reviews and your website, but it exceeded them by far, and our whole family—three generations—had a wonderful stay. All of the staff were very kind, especially the woman from Miyazaki who took care of us at dinner. I’m really glad we chose your Hotel! We will definitely come back again someday! This might be the first time I’ve ever given five stars across the board (lol).

This was my first long-awaited trip to Shima Onsen. As we got closer to Shima Onsen, we were greeted by lush, untouched natural scenery… Before checking in to the Accommodation, we went a little further to Lake Okushimako, where the stunning “Shima Blue” surface looked exactly like it does in travel magazines… Everything was wonderful. Kashiwaya Ryokan, located slightly outside the Onsen town area, was outstanding in every way—the Ryokan atmosphere, meals, Onsen, and the view from our Room… The complimentary coffee served in the library… All of it was excellent. And just as we reluctantly checked out and were about to step out of the entrance, there was a charming farewell with bubbles and “Thank you”… It was hospitality through and through—far beyond complete satisfaction—it made us think, “We want to come back!” I truly believe this is an Accommodation that lets you fully enjoy Shima Onsen. We would love to return again in a different season.

We stayed here for a family trip. It was within walking distance of the Gozaisho Ropeway, which made sightseeing convenient. We enjoyed breakfast while watching the ropeway, and it was great that adults and children had separate menus, making it easy to eat. The Onsen was almost private, so we could soak and relax at our own pace, and we had a very restful stay.

We stayed as a family of three, and the Room was spacious, as was the bathroom. The staff were also very helpful. When going from the parking lot to the Hotel, it was raining and we got wet, so I wish there had been some way to stay dry. Breakfast was also great, with a wide variety of food.

Thank you very much for your kind hospitality the other day. The location was excellent, and we really enjoyed sightseeing—taking a walk from this Hotel to Dogo Onsen’s Haikara Street and watching the Karakuri Clock in motion. The late-night snack of simmered sea bream head was especially delicious; I almost wanted to ask for the recipe. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful time during our trip.

This is my second stay at Hanakoyado. I became a repeat guest because this is where you find the answer to whether high-quality Onsen and gourmet dining can truly be enjoyed at a reasonable price. The traditional wooden building and tiled bath are full of classic Onsen atmosphere. Even more luxuriously, the Kinsen flows continuously, and when you sink into the tub, the overflowing water swirls as it runs off. I also enjoyed a steam bath using the high-temperature source spring. The rice cooked in the okudosan is delicious, and the fish and meat carefully grilled over charcoal with radiant heat are more than satisfying. To top it off, curry rice is served at the end as well. There is an Onsen experience and cuisine here that feel wonderfully untouched by modern times.

I made a Reservation with the Room assigned by the property, and they prepared a lovely Room on the 6th floor with a great view. It started raining suddenly and I arrived soaked, but a staff member handed me a towel at the entrance—an impressively thoughtful service. Since I chose a Plan without dinner, they introduced several nearby restaurants. There was one bottle of silica water in the Room; it was so good that I bought two bottles on my way home. The souvenir corner is also well stocked. Breakfast was buffet-style, and we were shown to our seats; everyone had good manners, so I could take my time choosing dishes. The bath water quality was excellent—as expected in Tamatsukuri—and the temperature was just right. The stone garden was wonderful as well.
