Thank you very much for your hospitality. I stayed here on a trip with my father. Because there was a family with children next door, we were slightly bothered by the sound of running inside, and it was also difficult to use the bath with the blinds open. I found myself wondering whether it might be visible from the road across from the property. Also, since there is no hedge or barrier between neighboring terraces, I thought a low fence might be helpful. As it was the season for stink bugs, there were quite a few indoors, so additional measures would make it even better. However, the food was exceptionally delicious, so overall we were very satisfied. We would love to stay again someday.

All the staff were very friendly, and we had a comfortable and pleasant stay. The food was delicious as well. We would definitely like to stay again.

Both the quality and quantity were excellent, and we truly enjoyed a delicious dinner. We were especially impressed to be served grilled sweetfish with salt, which we never expected. Thank you very much.

We stayed with our 4-year-old daughter for my husband’s birthday. After making a Reservation, they kindly confirmed by phone and accommodated our last-minute request for a birthday plate as much as possible. Both the staff on the phone and the team on site were all warm and attentive. There were plenty of kid-friendly activities, such as playing in the river behind the property and fireworks at night, which made it a very satisfying trip. They were also very kind to our child, and she says she wants to come again.

We stayed for one night; the hot spring was outstanding, and the building was well maintained and very clean. Even though we chose the standard meal course, it was excellent and more than filling.

Following last year, we stayed again over the New Year holidays. With traditional New Year decorations and osechi at breakfast, we were able to enjoy the unique atmosphere of Kanazawa, and once again had a very satisfying stay. This year there was also snow on the ground, making the view of Kanazawa from our high-floor room even more memorable. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much for everything this time as well.

This was my second stay here. As with my previous visit, the two older gentlemen who greeted us were very pleasant, and their warm welcome made us feel truly appreciated—excellent hospitality. Above all, I think Sarugakyo Hotel’s service is outstanding. There wasn’t a single staff member who made me feel uncomfortable. The person who assisted us during meals was from Nepal; perhaps they are still getting used to the work, but their sincerity really came through and I never felt uneasy at all. I ordered oolong tea, but when they repeated the order they said orange juice—so I corrected it, yet what arrived was orange juice (laugh). That was completely acceptable. It was delicious! The next morning, they greeted me with “Thank you for yesterday,” which made me happy. Thank you as well. Both dinner and breakfast were very tasty and generously portioned—we were completely satisfied. The Onsen was kept extremely clean and felt wonderful. Thanks to everyone at the Hotel, we had a very comfortable stay. We also really enjoyed playing table tennis. We will definitely come back again.

I booked at a great price with a coupon, so I wasn’t expecting much, but I was very happy that the meal included grilled salt ayu. I recently stayed at Suimeikan in Gero, but they didn’t serve ayu. All the staff were pleasant and made me feel relaxed. I visit every year to pay my respects at the grave, so I’ll stay here again.

Despite the rain, we truly appreciated being picked up when we arrived at the Accommodation and dropped off when we left, which made us feel very welcome. The Onsen water left our skin silky smooth, and we enjoyed a very relaxing bath. We also thoroughly enjoyed our meal in a private room. We would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

I was very satisfied. I sincerely appreciate the front desk staff for kindly answering my questions. I visited for a concert, and it turned into a wonderful trip to Yamagata. The paintings and sculptures reflect the Hotel’s sense of elegance.

I accidentally made a Reservation for a smoking room, but thank you very much for changing it to non-smoking. I truly appreciate it! Also, if possible, I would be happy if breakfast could start from 6:00 AM. Thank you again, and I appreciate your help.

I planned to go to Nara for a meal, and since I was there anyway, I stayed one night. The high ceiling and the curved vanity area made it feel more spacious than it actually was. It seemed almost fully booked and there were many families with children, but the Room was quiet and comfortable. The bathtub was also roomy. The staff were friendly and pleasant, and I’d like to come back again for a relaxing stay. Breakfast was delicious too, with a clean and well-kept buffet.

Stayed for 2 nights. Despite a significant delay in check-in due to transportation issues, the staff provided courteous assistance. It rained during the stay, but umbrellas were available for borrowing. The breakfast and lounge area was excellent. The design was appealing, there were books available, and the daily-changing breakfast buffet offered a good variety of dishes, making it highly satisfactory.

We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days. Overall, we were very satisfied! However, we really couldn’t tolerate the smell in the elevator, so we mostly used the stairs. It was a bit disappointing that the meals were almost the same on both days. But everything tasted really delicious! On the first night, the staff member in charge of our meal seemed a bit bothered and spoke rather casually, which concerned us. On the second night, however, the staff member was very polite and made us feel comfortable. The view from our Room was amazing, and when we returned from going out, we were able to relax and unwind.

A stay given as a birthday gift! They also brought a cake as a surprise, and both the Onsen and the Room were spacious—everything was excellent.

It was the first time I truly felt how fresh and clean the air was—you can’t experience air like this in Osaka. Since it was during the rainy season, it was a shame we couldn’t see the stars.

To sum it up: absolutely worth the trip, even if it’s far! I was truly satisfied for the first time in a while!! From the initial phone call, the staff were kind and courteous. Even just looking at the photos of members of the Imperial Family, I could enjoy an atmosphere that reflects many years of history. Only the restrooms have been updated to a clean, modern style, which made me feel how much care and effort has gone into maintaining this place. The Room reminded me of my grandmother’s home in the early Showa era—so nostalgic. It’s perfect for simply relaxing and unwinding. The Onsen is a hot, free-flowing natural spring! The volume of water is incredible, and after soaking slowly, my body stayed warm for ages—spa therapy complete. I regretted not staying at least two nights to visit all the nearby public baths. I really hope you will aim to become an Accommodation where small dogs are welcome. Thank you very much. I’ll be back when I want to relax again.

Since it had been rebranded and was offered at a campaign rate, we stayed in the Premium Suite. As expected, the Room was tastefully put together, and it truly felt like they had moved away from the image of an old-fashioned Onsen Ryokan. The private bath, which is usually available for a fee, was also provided free of charge. You make a Reservation through the Accommodation’s dedicated app, then pick up the key at the front desk when it’s time. We ended up departing early in the morning on short notice, but we’d like to stay here again when we visit Minami-Izu.

This was my first time staying here. It felt like a traditional Onsen Accommodation, and I had a very comfortable stay. I was able to relax in the Onsen, and I also really enjoyed the dinosaur-themed bath. The amenities were well stocked, and although I checked in late, I appreciated that the futon had already been laid out for me. Just one thing… when I tried to put something in the refrigerator—“!!”. Maybe it was left by a previous guest? There was ice cream inside, and it surprised me. Since it was tucked away in the back, it probably went unnoticed. It became a funny travel story for me, but I worried that others might not feel the same. Overall, though, I’m very satisfied. I’d love to stay again if I have the chance.

I visited by motorcycle this time, and I really appreciated being able to park under the eaves so it stayed dry even in the rain. The staff were very kind and helpful, and I was very satisfied. There are several yakiniku restaurants near the Hotel, so I also enjoyed Iida’s famous yakiniku.
