It was a very comfortable Room. The seafood dishes were also excellent. The bath was clean and we enjoyed it. After checking out, I realized I had forgotten my hat and called; they helped me, and it arrived at my home the next day. It became a wonderful memory. I will visit again.

The food was amazing!! The service was great too! They even saw us off when we left!

My wife, son, and I traveled from Nagoya with our dog. We followed the navigation via the Chuo Expressway, got off at Azusagawa IC, and after that there was almost nothing along the local roads—no gas stations—until we finally found one near the Accommodation. After arriving, we presented our dog’s various certificates at reception to check in. The staff were very kind. The first place we were shown was the café lounge: unlimited soft drinks, ice cream, and even alcohol (as much as available?!). There were also 4–5 kinds of dog treats prepared, which felt like a great perk for guests. Next to the café lounge there was also a pet shower room. What surprised me was that other guests also said they couldn’t smell any “pet odor,” and I hadn’t noticed it either—it really didn’t bother us at all. However, the smoking room is located around the center of the 2nd floor, and the cigarette smell inside that room was… quite strong. This time we stayed in a Japanese-style room because no Western-style rooms were available. At reception we were told that if our dog soiled any bedding we would be charged a cleaning fee, so we put our dog in diapers. Thanks to that nothing got dirty—but in an unexpected twist, my son got a nosebleed and stained the sheets. We weren’t charged anything, but I’m very sorry about that. Changing topics: Both dinner and breakfast were buffet style. For dinner we could choose 17:30 or 19:00; for breakfast 7:00 or 8:00. Everything was satisfying overall; alcoholic drinks are available for an additional charge. The bath is an Onsen open from 15:00 to 22:00, and in the morning from 5:00 to 10:00. There is an outdoor dog run with facilities and a washing area, plus towels for wiping paws. There is also an indoor one on the second floor. Stepping outside into such clear air helped me forget about work for a while, and we made wonderful memories with our dog and family. We’d love to come again! On the way back we headed toward Okaya IC on local roads before returning to Nagoya; from this Accommodation to Okaya IC the roads were well paved, and there are places like Suwa Taisha Shrine (Suwa Grand Shrine), Utsukushigahara Highlands (Plateau), roadside stations (Michi-no-Eki), etc., so it’s easy to make stops along the way. The route on our way there wasn’t as convenient—so next time we’ll come via Okaya IC. To Oedo Onsen Wanwan Resort Shinshu Ueda Team: Thank you for giving us such great memories.

This Accommodation was located right in front of Lake Suigetsu. The staff, who were very knowledgeable about the local area, were a pleasure to talk to and provided great service, and the blackthroat seaperch and other local ingredients were truly delicious.

I visited Ishikawa Prefecture hoping for the recovery of the Noto Peninsula. I took a wrong turn and arrived late, but I truly appreciated your thoughtful consideration. Perhaps because it was a Sunday stay, I was able to use the private bath both at night and in the morning. It was wonderful to relax and enjoy a long soak. The meals were served in a semi-private dining area, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious—I was completely satisfied. The Room was clean, and I was able to spend my time comfortably. All of the staff were excellent, and I would definitely like to stay again.

I was very satisfied with this Onsen Accommodation surrounded by nature, and there was also a great souvenir shop.

The seafood was delicious. The meal even included a whole crab, making it very filling. The sashimi was also excellent, and our whole family was very satisfied. Breakfast could be enjoyed while looking out at the sea. We also highly recommend the private sauna!

It was a relaxing and peaceful stay at the accommodation. The staff's hospitality was excellent, and the food was delicious. I was already full after enjoying Matsuba crab, but the tempura served later was so perfectly fried that I ate it all. The bathhouse had a charming atmosphere with great Onsen water, though a higher chair would have been appreciated. As I age, I find traditional accommodations more comforting to my heart, though my body is starting to feel otherwise. Since it was a room with a bed type, there were no inconveniences inside the room. I hope to visit again while I'm still able to use stairs. I felt that Iwai Onsen has remained unchanged for decades, and its unchanging nature is part of its charm.

We stayed in the Glamping Egg Suite for a birthday trip! As a birthday surprise, we arranged a cake and wine with the help of the Hotel staff. Thanks to their support, it became a truly wonderful birthday memory! Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t great, but we still had an amazing time and fully enjoyed our first barrel sauna experience. We’re truly grateful to the Hotel staff—thank you so much!

Although the property is old, it was thoroughly cleaned and comfortable. The meals were delicious, and depending on the Plan, we appreciated having them served in our Room. All of the staff were kind, including those providing the Shuttle Service. Highly recommended for anyone who doesn’t mind an older property. We would definitely like to stay again.

I stayed with my husband during the New Year. It was snowing and cold that day, but the Room was warm and welcoming with the heater on. The bath was very relaxing, but there was only one hairdryer, and despite others waiting, someone kept using it while looking at their phone, so I dried my hair in the Room. The meals were more than expected in quantity—so much that we couldn’t finish everything. We ate plenty of crab to our satisfaction. If you choose this Ryokan, I recommend coming with an empty stomach! Although we couldn’t explore due to the snow, I would love to stay at this Ryokan again.

The meals offered a wide variety of dishes, and everything was delicious. The staff were kind, and the bath was great. The bath amenities included both body soap and a menthol option, which was especially appreciated in this hot season. There was also a proper hair dryer in the bath area, and we could really feel their thoughtful care. We stayed with our pet, and the owner clearly explained the rules and precautions, which made everything easy to understand. We had a very pleasant stay. Thank you very much.

The meals were delicious, and the portions were just right. The Onsen’s changing area was immediately by the entrance, which made me a little uneasy at first, but it was about the size of a home bath and was well cleaned, so it was nice.

My parents, both over 80, love crab, so we visited mainly for the crab buffet. The meals were great—not only the crab, but also a wide variety of dishes, especially at breakfast. The bath was also wonderful; it was nice to soak in a hinoki bath. We requested a Japanese-style Room plus an additional 4.5-tatami area, but the 4.5-tatami space was located right by the Room entrance and wasn’t very usable, which was disappointing. In that case, a standard Japanese-style Room would have been fine. All staff were cheerful, kind, and pleasant. The baths also seemed to have been renovated or renewed, and it felt like the Hotel is making a strong effort overall, which I appreciated. This time we were able to use a coupon on Yahoo Travel and I think we probably got the best price available. When I explained that we were traveling with two elderly guests, they kindly arranged a Room with easy access to both the bath and dining area, which we truly appreciated.

The Facility is old, but it was clean. We were very satisfied with the meals, and the all-you-can-drink alcohol option was great.

Recommended by a gourmet friend, I stayed at this accommodation. Having lived in Eastern Hokkaido before, I had visited the surrounding area often but was not very familiar with Lake Kussharo. Curious about the place, I decided to visit and was immediately impressed by the stunning mountain views from the lodge. The rare snowfall for this region added to its charm this year. The experience of checking in via canoe or snowshoe from Lake Kussharo was truly memorable. The accommodation building featured facilities such as a sauna, cold bath, and barrel bath. It was delightful to cool off while enjoying the snowy scenery after using the sauna. For the first time, I also experienced tending a fireplace with firewood, which allowed me to spend mindful and relaxing moments. The meals were Chinese-inspired cuisine and absolutely delicious! The chef skillfully prepared luxurious ingredients like abalone and shark fin for an unforgettable dining experience. Thank you for kindly preparing additional mapo tofu as well—it was fantastic! Breakfast was equally exceptional. While having dinner, it started snowing outside; we appreciated how staff thoughtfully cleared snow just before we returned to our room in the accommodation building. Although it would be nice if improvements could be made regarding some minor points—such as whether or not the baths are onsen or addressing slight odors in rooms with toilets and showers—the overall experience far outweighed these small concerns. It left such an impression that I ended up making a summer reservation before leaving! This place is truly remarkable—I look forward to visiting again during another season for more unique experiences. Thank you so much for providing such precious memories!

The Room was very spacious and comfortable—almost too big for our family of four plus our dog. Soaking in the Onsen while looking out at the ocean, our dog and kids had a great time running around in the large grassy garden. At night we enjoyed fireworks and watched a movie together in the living room, spending a relaxing and peaceful time away from the Golden Week crowds. The dog amenities were also fully provided, which we truly appreciated. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

The Facility was very clean with almost no odor, making it extremely pleasant. We stayed in a suite, which was so spacious for two people that it felt like too much room—probably enough to accommodate six people comfortably. The view from the living room was also fantastic. The meals were delicious, and it was wonderful that dogs could join us at the table. All the Hotel staff were dog lovers and fully committed to a dog-first approach, making our stay exceptional. We would love to stay here again many times in the future!

The bath with smooth Onsen water was excellent. The food was also very delicious.

"People who want to eat with crab miso" are appearing one after another! We used the "Akira 'Aya'" Plan with 2.5 crabs for two adults. Sashimi, grilled, tempura, shabu-shabu, it was all crab! Crab! Crab! Haha Grilling over charcoal on a shichirin was just the best. Dip the meat in crab miso and eat it! It was the ultimate luxury~! The property had a warm atmosphere, and we were able to spend our time very leisurely. The food, including the crab, and even the breakfast, was all incredibly delicious! The property allows bringing in your own items, so we were grateful to be able to bring our favorite drinks and enjoy them with the meal. It became a very good memory, and we liked it so much that we want to go again!
