The Facility itself feels a bit dated, but the meals were delicious, with many dishes featuring seasonal local ingredients. The Onsen water was also excellent, and the Room had a reliable internet connection. Overall, we were very satisfied.

Everyone at the Ryokan, especially the proprietress, welcomed us with such warmth and thoughtful attention that we felt truly happy throughout our stay. The Accommodation itself is old, rich with history and stories, and you can really feel how lovingly it has been cared for over the years. The Onsen water was soft and silky, gently enveloping you and soothing every ache and fatigue. The meals were exceptionally delicious—each dish carefully prepared—and nourishing for both body and soul. We were deeply impressed. Even the plain white rice had a mysterious charm that stayed delicious to the very last bite. We would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

We stayed for three to four days from the holiday period into the weekdays. We informed them in advance about a food allergy, and they kindly accommodated us. They seem to be running the place with a small team, so they looked very busy, but all the staff were cheerful, kind, and served us with smiles. The private family bath in the annex for day-use visitors was a nice change of pace, but the slightly hot Onsen in the main building was wonderful. We would like to visit again if we have the chance.

I made a reservation with meals at a Ryokan for the first time. The guidance to the room, explanations, meal service, and futon preparation were all smooth. The atmosphere was nice, and it was conveniently close to the sea. The Onsen and private bath were excellent, allowing for a very pleasant stay. I would love to stay again! Thank you very much!

All staff are very helpful and respond kindly, accommodating even special requests with flexibility. The Room is clean, the location is convenient, and this Accommodation comes highly recommended.

Both dinner and breakfast were extremely satisfying. The side dishes and rice were delicious, and we ate too much.\nThe Onsen was great, including the outdoor bath, but it was crowded with beachgoers, so visiting in the morning might be better. The indoor bath was almost private, and we could truly relax.\nThe Room was quiet and comfortable, as expected.\nWe recommend this Accommodation more for couples than for families. It’s a place we’d love to return to.

We stayed for one night with No Meals Included just after the Obon holiday season. The location is almost in the center of the Onsen town, right next to Ichino-yu, making it perfect for visiting the public baths and strolling around town. Our Room was on the 3rd floor facing the Onsen street, with two beds. Some details felt a bit dated, but overall it was clean and pleasant. You can clearly hear the sound of people’s geta outside, but I found it atmospheric and didn’t mind much. During summer vacation in Kinosaki Onsen, fireworks are launched from 21:00, and it was wonderful to be able to see them from our window. There are two indoor baths: the left one is quite lukewarm and may be good for soaking for a long time. The right one is a bit hotter and also has a cold bath, which I really appreciated! Since Kinosaki’s public baths don’t have cold baths, this was especially welcome for me. The water also pours like a waterfall from a lion-shaped spout (maybe), so you can let it hit your stiff shoulders like a water massage. For parking, the Ryokan’s information points to nearby paid parking lots, but there is also a municipal lot very close by that is cheaper at JPY 1,000 for 12 hours. However, when we arrived there was a waitlist line up, so we used “Kinosaki Motor Pool” listed in their guidance (JPY 1,700). The municipal lot is cheaper and allows longer stays, but if you take your car out during your stay you’ll be charged again each time—so if you plan to drive out for shopping or similar errands, Kinosaki Motor Pool may be more convenient. The young proprietress was very friendly and charming (according to my wife), and we enjoyed chatting with her. One small disappointment was that the air conditioner in our Room didn’t seem well cleaned—the airflow smelled slightly musty and there was visible dirt around the vent. A different Accommodation we stayed at last year had a dirty air conditioner too; maybe places where each Room has its own unit tend to struggle with keeping up with cleaning? Also, I didn’t notice while we were using toilets at the public baths during our outings—but when I used our toilet the next morning, the washlet function wasn’t working properly. Overall we were very satisfied, and we’d like to stay here again when we visit Kinosaki next time.

We stayed in both the West and East rooms as a three-generation family. The historic building has been renovated with modern facilities, making it very comfortable. Thanks to the detailed guidance provided the day before, we were able to arrive without any worries. This was especially helpful as there is a parking lot just before the entrance, which can be tricky to find due to the busy pathway filled with people. My parents, who are nearly 80 years old, used handrails for going up and down the stairs but mentioned they had a comfortable stay. The staff were all very kind and accommodating; they helped us by making a reservation at "Bone-in Chicken Tanaka" for dinner upon request and provided information about taking a taxi to Daimon when we expressed concerns about my parents' mobility. Thanks to their support, my parents could visit Hongu Shrine while we made it all the way to Okunoin Temple—a truly memorable experience!

The staff’s thoughtful attention to detail is wonderful! The Facility seems to be a renovated historic building, and we had a very comfortable stay. The private family bath had amenities such as lotion, which was a big help since we had used ours up while visiting different Onsen. We were able to relax and enjoy it at the end of our Onsen-hopping. The rice cooked in an individual pot at breakfast is absolutely delicious. Highly recommended.

It’s conveniently located just a few minutes’ walk from Echigo-Yuzawa Station, and there is also parking available. It’s a bit away from the bar district, but not enough to be an issue. The Accommodation seems to have been renovated and felt clean. For the price, the bath was spacious and comfortable, though the water was a little too hot. We didn’t add breakfast, but there was complimentary chimaki and soup, which were very tasty. I would like to stay here again.

The meals were very generous, and I felt sorry that I couldn’t finish everything. The Onsen was a comfortable, easy-to-enjoy temperature.

We stayed with two children. Toys were prepared in our Room, and the kids had a great time. The temperature of the large public bath at the Accommodation was just right, and even infants could bathe without any issues. We booked the No Meals Included Plan, but we had dinner at the dining area on the second floor. High chairs for children were available, and there were plenty of menu options that kids could enjoy. The staff at the Accommodation were very warm and welcoming, which we truly appreciated.

We stayed this time with our dog. Both the property and the Room were very clean, and we also appreciated that it was a pet-friendly, fully flat Room. We were happy that free drinks, snacks, and bread were available in the lounge as well. The private open-air bath was spacious enough too! Just one thing: we thought meals would be served in the Room, but they were served in a private dining room. We happened to bring a pet cart, so our dog had a place to wait, but if we hadn’t brought one, there wouldn’t have been space for our dogs to wait during the meal, so we thought it would be nice if you offered cart rentals. Overall, it was a wonderful Accommodation to stay at with our dog!

I’ve been making regular Reservations at this beloved Accommodation for about 10 years now. They always welcome me warmly, and the atmosphere is homey and incredibly comfortable. The Accommodation is also clean and well maintained. On top of that, the proprietress and the head chef are both wonderful people. The Onsen uses pure natural spring water, so the quality is excellent—it warms you to the core and leaves your skin feeling soft and moisturized. And above all, the food is simply outstanding. Each dish is brought out freshly prepared, so everything is served hot. You can really feel the care in every detail—beautifully presented with refined flavors. Everything is delicious, but I was especially amazed by the breakfast miso soup. Personally, it was the best I’ve ever had! In every way, satisfaction here is consistently high—an Accommodation that makes you want to come back right away. I’ll be making another Reservation soon. Please take good care of yourselves—I’m looking forward to seeing you again next time.

A stylish hotel utilizing a historic building. The lounge offers exceptional financiers and cookies, highly recommended. A wide selection of alcoholic beverages is also available. However, the room specifications are somewhat limited, and while the water facilities are clean, they are minimal. Kinosaki is known for its public Onsen hopping, which I learned later. The best way to enjoy this accommodation might be to explore the local Onsen and sightseeing first, then relax in the lounge afterward.

I have stayed at Onsen accommodations before, but this time we decided to visit Oushuku Onsen and chose Kawanaga. The hospitality was wonderful, perfectly matching the quality one expects from a Ryokan. The signboard with "Welcome [Your Name] Party" had a nostalgic Showa-era charm that made me happy. The floors were polished beautifully, and the futons in the room were fluffy and comfortable. Although the faucet in the indoor bath showed some age, it was well-maintained and clean. The outdoor Onsen is 100% natural spring water, so it was slightly lukewarm; however, this allowed for longer soaks without feeling fatigued—a great feature! The road leading to this Ryokan during autumn is lined with golden rice fields. The Akita Komachi rice served here was incredibly delicious—perhaps even more so because I had just admired those golden fields beforehand! The Hittsumi soup was also delightful. This is a quiet accommodation where you can truly relax—I highly recommend it!

I stayed to support the Hakone Ekiden. The runners pass right in front of the Property. The building is old, but it has been modernly renovated and is very clean. The Room has a cozy feel and is relaxing, and above all, the breakfast was wonderful. Since it was New Year's, there was ozoni and osechi cuisine. It was beautifully presented and delicious, as if dining at a first-class restaurant. I deducted points because the TV couldn't receive BS broadcasts, but the service from the Stays staff was courteous, making it one of the few places I, a travel enthusiast, would want to visit again.

I stayed here again for the first time in a while since the renovation. The open-air bath was different from before, and I enjoyed it with the men’s and women’s baths switching. The Room was a Japanese-Western style, so it was spacious, but the bed was narrow and the pillow was high, making it hard to sleep. The meals were very delicious, served at just the right timing. The salmon sashimi was a little unique—well thought out and tasty. The ayu sweetfish also had just the right amount of salt and was very enjoyable.

We had a relaxing, unhurried stay with our eldest son’s family, our eldest daughter’s family, and all of our grandchildren. Our daughter is familiar with the place, and my wife and I brought ingredients with us, so we were able to enjoy both dinner and breakfast at a leisurely pace without going out. We also enjoyed the Onsen many times. We would definitely like to stay again.

Although it is an old accommodation, it was clean and comfortable to stay in. The room does not have a toilet or refrigerator, but they are conveniently located nearby outside the room. From the window of the room, there is a balcony-like area where you can enjoy views of trees, the murmuring river, and a glimpse of Oushuku town's scenery, which was very soothing. I would love to visit again in autumn.
