I stayed for one night in early September. It’s close to Jigokudani, and the Onsen was simply wonderful. There are many types of Onsen baths, and I really enjoyed them. We had the dinner and breakfast buffet, and I honestly wondered if it was really okay to have all-you-can-eat crab like this. The Japanese- and Western-style buffet was impressive, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you very much.

Both the Room and the building were beautiful and felt very clean. The bed was especially wonderful—not only spacious, but also with just the right thickness and firmness. The pillows weren’t too soft either, so I was able to fall asleep quickly. When we arrived and went out to explore the town, three of us had sore legs and backs, so we were embarrassed to be walking with canes. At dinner, we were told that our table for the next morning’s breakfast buffet had been set at the closest, easiest-to-access spot. We were all truly touched. The food was delicious as well, and both breakfast and dinner were enjoyed at spacious tables with partitions from surrounding guests, allowing us to relax and chat at a leisurely pace.

The room was thoroughly cleaned, and we had a very comfortable stay. Next time, we would like to try the buffet at the Hotel restaurant.

We were very satisfied with every aspect of our stay, including the meals, the bath, and the staff’s service. The meals offered a wide variety of dishes and were delicious—we were truly pleased. The bath allowed us to enjoy the excellent water quality unique to an Onsen, and we had a relaxing, soothing time. All staff members were courteous, making our stay comfortable. We would definitely like to stay again if we have the opportunity.

My first stay. The large public bath was spacious, and I enjoyed the Onsen at a leisurely pace. The guest Room had high ceilings and an open-air bath; there was a Japanese-style room next to the bed, and each room had a TV, so I could truly refresh. The meals were kaiseki cuisine—sashimi, tempura, grilled fish, a small hot pot, chilled chawanmushi, and more—everything was very delicious, and I also had two large draft beers.

We enjoyed a truly relaxing stay at Hotel de Marronnier. We sincerely appreciate the thoughtful hospitality of all the staff. We delighted in the flavorful breakfast and dinner, and felt refreshed by the impeccably maintained facilities, the salt bath, and the charming open-air bath. Even the Shuttle Service for our return trip was perfectly arranged—this is an exceptional Accommodation we would love to visit again in another season.

Everything—the cuisine, the Room, the Onsen, the garden, and the music—was wonderful, but above all, the hospitality of the president, the proprietress, and all staff was exceptional. We truly felt their attentive care in every detail. This time we stayed for two nights, spending one night each in the Western and Paragon Rooms. The open-air bath while enjoying the view from our Room and the sound of the vintage audio system were both superb, making it a stay that truly let us forget everyday life. We’re not sure when it will be, but we would love to try staying in the remaining two Rooms as well.

It was an Accommodation on the mountainside of Mt. Hakkoda, almost like a mountain lodge. As such, the Facility showed some age, but it also had a charming sense of history. The Onsen was excellent. The meals were just the right portion for seniors. The Shuttle Service from Shin-Aomori was a great help. On the way back, you also stopped by Sukayu Onsen—thank you very much. The night sky full of stars was wonderful as well.

We stayed with you at the end of August. All of the staff were cheerful and courteous. Although we did not choose a high-end meal plan, the food was generous in portion and very delicious. The open-air bath with an ocean view was wonderful; it was a shame the weather was cloudy, but we were able to relax while listening to the sound of the waves. We would love to stay again.

As I prefer gluten-free options, I usually stay at Japanese-style Ryokan with mainly Japanese cuisine. This Hotel also offered gluten-free meals, and the Room was clean and functional. The staff provided excellent service. The view from the Room was outstanding. I’ve already made my next Reservation.

This was my first stay. The Hotel staff were very courteous and helpful. I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the dinner was.\nI would definitely like to stay again.\nThank you very much.

I have stayed here every summer for nearly 10 years, and it is truly a wonderful Hotel. Each time I visit, my satisfaction increases. Everywhere in the Hotel is beautiful and spotless, the hospitality is exceptional, and every dish is a delightful surprise. I would like to stay here in other seasons as well.

You can see the ocean from the Hotel Room, and if you walk a little way down the slope, the sea is right in front of you—perfect for picking up a coffee at a convenience store and relaxing on the beach. Dinner was plentiful, featuring simmered golden eye snapper (a bit sweet for our taste), spiny lobster, abalone, and more. It was also nice that we could use a voucher to choose items such as tempura, seared bonito, or dessert. There was an Onsen as well as an open-air bath, and we enjoyed them many times. Breakfast was buffet-style; the freshly grilled dried horse mackerel was especially delicious. They also had organic coffee, which we enjoyed. Thanks to the staff’s thoughtful attention to detail, our stay was very comfortable.

The old-fashioned Momoyama-style bath was truly impressive. From the changing room, the detailed ceiling and flooring created a wonderful sense of character, and when I opened the door to the indoor bath, I couldn’t help but sigh at the atmosphere of a bygone era. The open-air bath also had an excellent ambiance. I rated service 4 because I would have appreciated clearer maps and signage inside the property.

The ocean view from the Room is wonderful, as are the views of Atami and the sea from the restaurant. The guest Room is spacious and airy, and the Onsen bath is large enough to stretch out in. Dinner was especially delicious, particularly the stone-grilled beef tenderloin steak. It was a very satisfying stay.

As soon as we parked, a staff member came over and guided us smoothly to the front desk. The guidance to our room and the explanation of the facilities were also clear and easy to understand. The room was spacious and spotless, and we were very satisfied with the private open-air bath. Both dinner and breakfast were incredibly luxurious, with so much food it was hard to finish, but the gentle seasoning made everything easy to enjoy. When we left, all the staff at the front desk came out to see us off. I loved the food, the room, and especially the staff. I’d love to stay again.

Everything was outstanding!! Nothing to complain about!! We will definitely stay again!! On the way home, we were already discussing when to make our next Reservation. The food in particular was truly delicious and wonderful.

We chose Horohoro Sanso in Kitayuzawa for our family of four for the first time in about 20 years! Before making a Reservation, I read Reviews on various sites, and as someone who loves food, I was especially drawn to posts about the meals. The building does show its age, but you can see many renovations throughout, and the Onsen in particular felt impressive and luxurious. Most importantly, the food was full of creative ideas—and the seasoning was far better than at some famous Hotels! From the DIY hot pot and mixed rice to salt-grilled char and individual buffet dishes… every item reflected great ideas and a chef’s confident touch, and we were truly satisfied. Even the small spices and original condiments served with each dish were delicious. As for the baths, one of the advantages of a smaller Hotel is that it never felt crowded no matter when we went in; we could relax without worrying about others in the ceramic-style bath, jacuzzi, and open-air bath. Our Room was spacious, with air conditioning and Wi-Fi provided, so it was very comfortable. Above all, all staff members were kind and helpful, including international staff who treated us with great care. There are many famous Onsen Hotels around Hokkaido where baths can be packed like sardines or meals look fancy but rely heavily on mass-produced ingredients; here at Horohoro Sanso, even if some items are frozen foods, they clearly add an extra touch to make everything taste great—something that speaks to the chefs’ skill and effort (my wife also praised it highly—she works with food every day). There’s so much more I could write, but what our whole family said together on the drive home was: “Let’s come back again!”

I’d been keeping an eye on this place as a summer getaway I wanted to visit someday, and I finally made it this time. It happened to be a day when temperatures had dropped across the whole country, so I wondered if it might not feel much like a cool retreat—but it was cold enough to need a jacket. The air was incredibly fresh, and I took lots of deep breaths on the balcony. It truly felt amazing—I finally understood what people mean by “the air tastes delicious.” The Room was carefully prepared and very comfortable. And the meal served at the counter felt wonderfully luxurious; with the reassuring comfort of being able to go straight to bed afterward, even the drinks tasted better. The free drinks in the lobby were also great for relaxing while enjoying the view. The weather wasn’t perfect, but we could still gaze at the stars at night, and by morning we had a beautiful view of Mt. Ontake as well. It was a lovely place that I would definitely like to visit again.

Since my first stay around 2019, this has been my number one “Accommodation I want to return to.” Sometimes revisiting a wonderful Accommodation can be a little disappointing, but this time there was nothing like that at all—I was completely satisfied with every aspect of the stay once again. The Room had a natural interior with the warmth of wood and felt very comfortable, and the lobby was also a relaxing space surrounded by greenery. From the moment we arrived, it truly felt like an escape from everyday life. Above all, the dining was outstanding. Not only did everything taste amazing, but the presentation and overall experience made it exciting—wondering what would come next was part of the fun. Even my partner, who doesn’t often say “delicious,” was genuinely impressed by the meat dish. Along with the meat’s natural sweetness and rich flavor, the pairing with the sauce was excellent—we were still talking on our way home about how truly delicious it was. It didn’t just meet expectations; it reminded me all over again how special this Accommodation is. We would love to visit again.
