The open-air bath had a window, and I bathed with the screen in place. The Room had a great view, so I could relax and enjoy the scenery while soaking. The Room was compact, and the washbasin was right next to the bed; at first I found it a bit surprising, but it was actually convenient for drying my hair and getting ready. The Room felt slightly humid. I was disappointed that the toilet paper holder and the bath shelf were coming loose. Also, other LiVEMAX properties offered coffee service, but this one did not, and the coffee served with meals tasted weak. The meals were excellent—the simmered splendid alfonsino (kinmedai) was especially delicious, and the Japanese set breakfast was also very good. All of the staff were very pleasant, so I had a comfortable stay. I would definitely like to visit again.

I stayed here last year as well and am a returning guest. The baths are great, the meals are excellent, and while the Facility isn’t new, it feels well maintained and cared for. The staff were pleasant and attentive, and I was very satisfied. I was able to relax, but the enjoyable time flew by. I’d like to come again in a different season.

The cat was very cute. The Onsen’s open-air bath felt cold when I first got in. The indoor bath was also quite lukewarm, but it felt like I could stay in forever. I bathed three times during my stay, and it was very relaxing. Many of the staff were from overseas, but I could feel their thoughtful hospitality. It had a homey atmosphere. As a solo traveler, it was great to be able to relax quietly. I’d like to stay again.

It was wonderful to experience the atmosphere of a Swiss Hotel. We were glad we could reserve the bath for private family use, and we were able to use it without any waiting time.

It was a one-night stay. The staff were kind and helpful. The Room was a smoking Room. Because it was heated tobacco, the smell bothered me a little. I thought it would be nice to have Rooms specifically for heated tobacco. However, overall it was good, and I would like to stay again.

I stayed for one night as a solo guest. This Accommodation offers an Onsen-focused experience, with a spacious Room featuring a free-flowing Onsen bath, plus access to the Onsen at the nearby roadside station. Breakfast is served buffet-style and includes local dishes such as noppe-jiru. It’s popular and Reservations may be hard to secure, but I’d love to stay again.

The Accommodation buildings are scattered across a spacious property, offering a relaxing escape from the bustle of the city. But the greatest highlight here is the wonderful dinner. The menu is thoughtfully crafted, with many unique and unusual dishes. The chef’s dedication really shows in the food, and I was very satisfied. The Onsen is also excellent, with free-flowing natural hot spring water. I didn’t know there was such a great place in Kokonoe.

I stayed here with two friends from out of town. I’ve stayed at various Hotels in Akiu Onsen, but Hana no Yu’s buffet was outstanding! You can make your own drinks, and there was a wide variety of delicious dishes from appetizers to desserts. The Room was very clean and I was very satisfied. There are three Onsen baths, so we were able to fully enjoy them. I’d love to visit again.

The meals were absolutely luxurious! All the staff were attentive and kind. The all-you-can-drink options at dinner were very extensive, and the glasses were kept chilled in a dedicated refrigerator, which felt very clean. The bath facilities were also great, and the locker keys felt very secure. Just one thing: the trash bin under the sink in the Room washbasin area hadn’t been emptied, so that was the only negative point.

We were able to stay with our dog and had a wonderful time. The meals were delicious, and the golf course greens viewed from the Hotel were dazzling.

It was such a shame I could only stay for one night, but I left with wonderful memories. I would definitely love to stay much longer next time. All of the staff were extremely kind and welcoming. Special thanks to Dan, who shared so many fun and interesting stories with us during meals. I’d love to visit again.

I made a last-minute Reservation for an 8-tatami Room, but when I arrived, it had been upgraded to a 12-tatami Room. The Room was spacious, dinner was excellent, and I even had seconds of rice twice. Breakfast was also delicious, and my daughter—who usually doesn’t eat much—said she was full and satisfied. The bath was great as well; the scenic-view bath in particular had wonderful views of the mountains. I’ll definitely stay again.

The renovated Onsen had a wonderful view, and I was able to relax. The dining area also had spacious seating, so it wasn’t crowded and I could enjoy the meal comfortably. However, the light snacks in the lobby were chaotic, with no seats available and a line for check-in, which felt tiring right after arriving. It would be nice if it were more spacious, but I suppose that may not be possible...

We truly enjoyed everything—from the meals and hospitality to the conversation and even the magic show. This Accommodation is highly recommended for anyone who would like to interact with local people.

This was my first stay, and I was able to relax and unwind. There were plenty of indoor and outdoor dog runs within the Facility, along with a great selection of amenities and dog treats. They even had photo spots and raincoats, so it was perfectly equipped for traveling with a dog. I chose a Plan that allowed in-Room dining. The French dinner—especially the bouillabaisse packed with seafood—was delicious. Breakfast bread was also excellent. Since I was traveling solo, I used the bath in my Room, but the bath amenities were great as well, including POLA shampoo and skincare items such as lotion. The staff were kind and treated my dog warmly too. I would love to stay again.

The Onsen was spacious and relaxing, and the wide variety of meals tempted us to eat more than we should. The building is old, but well maintained, and we felt truly refreshed by the warm, smiling service and thoughtful hospitality. With baby-friendly bathing facilities and dining options, we felt at ease and would like to visit next time with three generations of our family.

After the Obon holidays, we stayed for a Multiple Night Stay of two nights starting on August 17. We found this Hotel at the last minute the day before and were really lucky to get a Reservation. We didn’t have high expectations, but both the Shirakaba Lake area and this Hotel were very lively with many guests. We had heard it was an older building, but it didn’t feel that way much. It was well maintained, our Room had no unpleasant odors, and the toilet had a washlet, which was great. The large public bath was quite spacious, and there was also an open-air bath (the water was a bit hot). Meals were buffet-style for both breakfast and dinner, so we could choose what we liked. Guests who enjoy alcohol were happy with the 90-minute all-you-can-drink option. The dining hall could accommodate many people and had a warm atmosphere. For summer vacation season, the price for two nights was reasonable and we were very satisfied and able to relax. We would like to stay again.

I stay here every year when I return home. I’m very satisfied that the price doesn’t change even during the Obon season. I plan to stay again next year.

Thank you for everything! This was my first time visiting Ryujin Onsen, and it was a wonderful Accommodation. All the staff were polite and friendly, which I truly appreciated. The buffet meals were delicious, and I enjoyed choosing my favorites. The Room was clean and comfortable, and I was very satisfied with my stay. And the Onsen!!! The silky-smooth water was amazing—so relaxing. It felt like bathing in lotion, and my skin stayed moisturized long after, which really impressed me. It’s a bit far away, but I’d love to stay here again. Thank you very much.

You generally won’t have any contact with the Hotel staff, so there’s no need to worry about being considerate. It’s unmanned from check-in to check-out. If you’re not comfortable operating machines, it may be a bit difficult.\nThe Facility is fairly old, so it’s recommended for those who just need a place to sleep. It’s nice that the washing machine can be used for free, which is convenient for a Multiple Night Stay. The dryer isn’t very powerful, so it takes time.\nThis time I couldn’t book a non-smoking single Room and ended up with a smoking Room. I expected some cigarette smell, but it was quite strong.
