Very convenient for skiers. Lift discount vouchers are available in the off-season in March. Unfortunately, I didn’t know about them on the first day and couldn’t use one. Many Hotels around here are like this, but it’s great that you can still take a bath after check-out once you’re done skiing. The open-air bath has excellent water quality, but it was a bit disappointing that after check-out only the indoor bath is available. The meals were more than enough, and I didn’t have room for the all-you-can-eat imoni soup and dessert. I wanted to have the imoni soup the next morning even if it was just reheated, but it seems it’s only served at night. I thought it would be nice if the foreign staff smiled a bit more, but since I train Hotel employees as a Japanese-language teacher, I tend to be overly critical. They are probably doing their best.

The room was very clean and provided a comfortable stay. The meal was a crab course, and there was more crab than expected, which made it very satisfying. It was an experience worth more than the price. We also received a pass for visiting public baths, allowing us to enjoy them even after checkout. I would love to stay here again.

The meals were a full-course Japanese cuisine and extremely satisfying. Breakfast was also delicious to the point of overeating. However, while there are five baths available and they were nice, access is on a first-come, first-served basis, making it difficult to use them at your preferred time. The private outdoor bath for two is enjoyable but gives the impression of being underutilized since it’s not always accessible.

Thank you for upgrading our room. We thoroughly enjoyed the open-air bath in the room. The meals were luxurious and more than we could finish. It was a very nice accommodation. The location was great, allowing us to explore the onsen town! Thank you very much.

Stayed on a weekday before the Obon holiday in August with the most affordable plan for 4 people. Despite some initial concerns, it was excellent value for money and an incredibly satisfying stay. The room was about 12 tatami mats in size, with a spacious hallway entrance and a wide sitting area by the window overlooking trees, comfortably seating four people. The bathroom had two sinks, and while there was a toilet in the room, there were also toilets located throughout the hallways and other areas. The bath was spacious with slightly sulfur-scented Onsen water that left my skin feeling smooth. Meals were served at tables in a large tatami-floored dining area. There was a menu provided along with explanations from staff members. While not extravagant, the dishes were creative and deliciously satisfying. For those wanting more luxurious options like beef or crab dishes, upgrading to another plan might be better suited. Tea and water were self-serve but made using tea leaves rather than tea bags, which made it taste better; even the water itself tasted great! After check-in, our luggage was carried to our room by staff who were kind and attentive throughout our stay. The building itself is impressive yet simple in design—clean with quick elevator access—and we enjoyed relaxing without any crowds at the baths or elsewhere around the Ryokan grounds. The road leading to this Ryokan wasn’t narrow either! One thing to note: they provide yukata robes but only one Onsen towel besides bath towels; so bringing your own pajamas or face towels might be helpful (especially if you find sleeping in yukata uncomfortable like I do). Would love to visit again!

Although slightly dated, it was a lovely Hotel. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, and even though it was outside regular hours, they kindly gave a ride to the station for one person who had to leave early. The only disappointment was not being able to use the open-air bath with a great view. The baths switched between men and women the next morning, but I couldn't use it due to lack of time in the morning.

I stayed on a weekday. There was no wait at reception, and I was able to go to my Room smoothly. The Room is old, but it was properly cleaned and tidy. Amenities in each Room were limited to a toothbrush, towels, and a yukata, but there seemed to be more available in the Onsen changing room. Wi-Fi works, but when I ran a speed test the download speed was around 8 Mbps. Since it was about this fast on a quiet day, I wouldn’t expect much on busy days. For dinner, I chose the charcoal-grilled seafood set. It included crab, scallops, salmon, squid, vegetables, and also sashimi. Since there was udon included I didn’t ask for it, but it seems rice is provided as well. You can also order additional dishes or sake tasting sets for an extra charge. The Onsen felt like it was privately reserved just for me. It’s a great Onsen, and being able to use one of that size alone might actually be a rare opportunity. I think I saw other Reviews mentioning cold shower water; if it’s nearly private-use only, the pipes may have cooled down due to low usage. For about one minute only cold water came out, but after that it worked normally. The sauna did not seem to be available due to COVID-19 prevention measures. Overall, considering the Accommodation Fee level (value for money), this Hotel offers high satisfaction with dinner, breakfast (included), and the Onsen—great cost performance/value for money overall. The Facilities are somewhat dated throughout which is slightly noticeable; aside from that point my satisfaction level was high.

Everything was very clean, and the staff were extremely courteous. I had a very comfortable stay. Thank you!

From the moment we arrived at the parking lot, the staff kindly guided us, and throughout our stay—from check-in at the front desk to meal times—every staff member was cheerful and welcoming, making us feel great! We stayed with our dog, and they were very kind to him as well. The facility seemed old but was very well-maintained and spotless—no issues at all! The meals were exceptional, starting with Yamagata beef for dinner and various small dishes. The breakfast buffet was of high quality with just the right variety of options. The bathwater was hot, but the spring quality was excellent! We appreciated being able to bring our dog into the dining area. If we have another opportunity, we would love to stay here again!

Congratulations on reopening.

There are some things that make you think "a bit off" as mentioned in the reviews, but considering the cost performance and being able to stay with my beloved dog, I personally think this is the best accommodation! It’s definitely one of the accommodations I’d love to visit again.

Our group was 7 people (two families, including our grandchild) with four dogs. The only disappointing points about the amenities were that the bath towels smelled a little, and there were no skincare items such as lotion—so I’m glad we brought our own. However, there was plenty of information available on the TV, and among all the dog-friendly hotels we’ve stayed at, this was the best. The meals, Onsen, and activities were all available inside the Hotel, so we never got bored and had a very fulfilling stay—we were extremely satisfied. One night wasn’t enough, so next time we plan to stay for two nights. We were also very happy to have a buffet where we could dine with our dogs in a calm setting. I hope more Hotels like this will open in the future.

The best part was having free all-you-can-drink alcohol and other beverages available right in front of the reception after a long drive. The dinner buffet didn’t have an extensive variety, but it was satisfying, and here too, there was unlimited alcohol. The bath left my skin feeling smooth—such a great experience! Although the staff were foreigners, they were well-trained and very polite. If I had to mention one downside, it would be the weak Wi-Fi connection. Other than that, I was satisfied and would love to stay again!

The dinner offered a great variety and was delicious—we were very satisfied. Every dish was excellent. Of course, breakfast was also delicious… The property was clean, and we had a comfortable stay. We would love to stay here again.

You can see the sunrise from both the room and the bath. The weather was nice, so it was a beautiful view. The breakfast was delicious, and I had a very pleasant stay. Thank you very much!

We chose this Accommodation for our kids, who love buffets. The buffet used plenty of ingredients typical of Gunma Prefecture, which we found really interesting! The manga corner and table tennis were also a hit with the kids!

The bath and meals were excellent, but dinner is scheduled quite early. The only start times were 5:30 pm or 6:00 pm, and we were strongly pushed toward 5:30 pm. If we had known from the beginning that dinner would start at those times, we would have planned lunch accordingly. Since we ate a late lunch, we asked for a later time, but it wasn’t possible. At breakfast, while some guests were still eating, staff asked if anyone wanted more rice and then quickly began clearing the tables. We like to relax when traveling, so the rushed pace stood out. Aside from that, the food was delicious, the staff were all kind, and the location in the center of the Onsen town was great.

The interior had been nicely renovated. Some trash from the previous guest was left behind, so the cleaning was a bit disappointing, but we were still able to spend a comfortable stay in the spacious Room. The Onsen also has great water. All of the staff were kind and provided courteous service. The meals were fairly standard but tasty, and we left feeling full. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

I have stayed in the TOJI Room for five nights, twice a year, for the past five years. Since the COVID period, I have been using it as a Toji stay service designed for remote workers. Walking around the Beppu Kitahama area near the Ryokan is also a great way to refresh. The Onsen temperature control and water quality suit me very well, and I bathe at least five times a day.

There are very few Business Hotels in Yamashiro Onsen. Thanks to this Hotel, I was able to stay at an affordable price. I really appreciate that breakfast is free. The Room was thoroughly cleaned, and the bath facilities were perfectly adequate for a business stay. The amenities are well stocked, which is a welcome service for women. Free tickets to the nearby public bath were provided, which I thought was a great service. You can also take your preferred shampoo and other items from those provided by the Hotel. The lighting in the Room has an adjustment that can get extremely bright—200 points. Doing office work in a dim Room is tough, so I felt they really understand what guests need. Next time I come to Yamashiro Onsen for work, I will stay here again. Thank you very much.
