The Room comes with a semi-open-air bath, and I could soak as many times as I wanted at any time, so it was amazing! With only five Rooms in total, there were few people even at the open-air bath, and I was able to relax. The Onsen water is clear, but it has a strong sulfur scent, and it left my skin feeling silky smooth. I’d love to visit again if I get the chance!

Once again, I was able to relax and enjoy the Onsen. Dinner was served early, which gave us plenty of time to unwind in the evening, and we really enjoyed it—thank you. The staff were warm and friendly, which made us feel at ease. We would love to stay again when we have the chance, and we are considering booking for others in our group as well. We’re looking forward to it. Thank you in advance.

I’m enjoying retirement and return to Japan twice a year (we usually live in Los Angeles), spending a month visiting Onsens with my American husband. His favorite is a famous Accommodation in Kinosaki Onsen, but even he said the food here was exceptionally delicious. We enjoyed two days of truly tasty meals—not just generous portions and many dishes, but outstanding flavor—and it made for a very satisfying Onsen trip. Transportation was inconvenient, but the food was so good it made us forget the inconvenience! Also, as coffee lovers, this was the first time we’ve been able to enjoy authentic coffee at an Onsen Ryokan. This is an Onsen Accommodation we definitely want to stay at again every year before our trip to Kinosaki Onsen. Also, the shampoo and conditioner in the Onsen smelled wonderful and left my color-treated hair smooth—I was very happy with them! Compared with Kinosaki Onsen, the proprietress and staff here were incredibly kind. I hope everyone gets to enjoy the same positive experience we did.

I’m very satisfied that I was finally able to stay at Kyounso. Above all, I was able to enjoy the rich sulfur hot spring three times, and every meal was delicious—especially the char sashimi, which I don’t usually get to eat. I’d love to visit again. I regret returning home without properly expressing my gratitude to the staff.

I was able to relax and take it easy. I stayed in the South Wing, which was a bit far from the Onsen, but I enjoyed getting there using the inclined elevator. The Facility felt a bit old, but I think that also adds to the Onsen atmosphere. What stood out most was how delicious the vegetable dishes at the buffet were. The roast beef and crab were great too, but above all, the vegetables were excellent and very satisfying. The staff greeted me every time we passed each other, which made my stay very comfortable. I would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

The Onsen is wonderful. The views from the Room, lobby, and Onsen are full of nature and very relaxing. The building seems old, but it has been well maintained and was clean. The staff were all cheerful and greeted us warmly in clear voices, which felt great and made us smile too. It was also fun to try making our own jingisukan and kama-meshi for the first time. This is a reasonably priced Onsen Hotel that you can truly enjoy—I highly recommend it.

This was my first time staying with Itoen Hotels. The Accommodation at Yunishikawa Onsen was very clean and pleasant. The buffet dishes were also replenished promptly, and I am truly grateful to all the staff. I would definitely like to stay again.

We stayed for two nights during Silver Week 2026. We were very satisfied with the location, Facility, and meals, and gave 5 points to every category except hospitality and service. In particular, the Silver Week–limited “Grill Dining” at the in-Hotel restaurant “Ibuki” was excellent. We enjoyed not only the two grilled dishes but also the semi-buffet options. We also had wine and were able to relax and enjoy dinner as a family. We also joined the nighttime Galaxy Ropeway event. Unfortunately, it was cloudy so we couldn’t see any stars, but they made thoughtful efforts—such as spending time on the lawn and listening to a projector-based explanation of the night sky—so we still enjoyed it to some extent even without visible stars. On the other hand, we were disappointed with Room cleaning on our second night. After going out in the morning following our first night, we returned to the Hotel around 6:00 p.m. and found that our Room had not been cleaned; used towels and other items were left as they were. Since we had a Reservation at “Ibuki” from 7:00 p.m., we contacted the front desk and asked them to take care of it while we were at dinner. Later, before 7:00 p.m., fresh towels and yukata were delivered to our Room, but ultimately no cleaning was done. The response also felt rather procedural, and we did not feel there was sufficient explanation or apology regarding why cleaning had been missed. I understand that missed cleaning can happen due to miscommunication; however, including how it was handled afterward, I rated hospitality/service as 2 points this time. Because everything else—such as dining and facilities—was highly satisfying, this was particularly disappointing. I hope this will be improved in the future.

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.

As a travel-loving couple, we’ve recently been taking trips where we stay at a Hotel and eat at local restaurants, so this was our first Ryokan stay in a while. We were completely satisfied with everything—the Room, the bath, and the food—and were able to relax and take our time. The Room was honestly too spacious for just two of us, but every space—the Japanese-style room, Western-style room, and bedroom—had its own charm and was wonderful. The bed was also extremely comfortable, and we slept soundly. We also enjoyed the Bluetooth speaker in the Western-style room; it had great sound quality and created an atmosphere that felt like being in a bar. The open-air bath in the Room had continuously flowing natural hot spring water, so we could soak right away after arriving and truly unwind. Dinner featured locally produced Aizu cuisine, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The recommended sake was delicious as well, and it was nice to be able to ask casually for suggestions while choosing. The pricing also felt very reasonable overall. If I had to mention one thing, breakfast was slightly disappointing: refills of rice or tea had to be requested via the in-room phone, and they took quite a while to arrive—so it would have been better if tea had been left in a pot. We were happy with the service too, and would love to visit again if we have the chance.

It seems to be a labor-saving style of operation, but the only staff we met were two front desk members, and they were both very pleasant and helpful. Having to make up the futon ourselves was actually nice, as it meant we didn’t have to worry about being a bother. The spa with a sauna and the meals are in the main building, but it’s less than a 5-minute walk away; there is a slight uphill slope, but it wasn’t an issue. We were able to enjoy the sauna and Onsen for long hours both on the day of arrival and again early the next morning. Dinner was buffet-style with all-you-can-eat salmon roe and steak. Since it was an inexpensive stay, we didn’t have high expectations, but the salmon roe had a great pop and the steak was tender and delicious. Breakfast was also lavish—I felt one hour wasn’t enough. Just one thing: I couldn’t tell whether some of the in-house loungewear had already been used, so I had to deduct a star. Overall, we were extremely satisfied!

They kindly told us the best spots to watch the fireworks, nearby convenience stores, and the Facility amenities.

We received many joyful photos of our grandchildren, and my spouse and I are extremely satisfied. The friendliness of the international staff seemed to double the fun, which made us very happy. Thank you very much!

Great value for money! The staff were kind, and I had a very pleasant stay. A staff member who seemed to be from Nepal assisted me, and their service was extremely polite and welcoming. One downside was that the sauna temperature felt a bit low, which was slightly disappointing for a sauna enthusiast. Even so, the overall value for money was excellent, and I’m very satisfied. This Hotel is recommended for anyone looking for an affordable and comfortable stay.

The building and interior feel a bit dated, but everything was clean overall, which was nice. As for the room, I’d like to see a bit more effort with cleaning the toilet… It wasn’t dirty, but while it looks fine from above, there were some dark stains visible from the side. I’d like it to be scrubbed thoroughly with foaming cleaner and a brush. Also, about the tea cups—I'd be happy if there were mugs instead of teacups. The Onsen and the breakfast on the top floor were exceptional! If you stay here, I definitely recommend adding breakfast.

Thank you for your hospitality. I was tired from driving, so the bath and sauna were very relaxing. Both breakfast and dinner offered a wide variety of dishes, and everything was delicious. I stayed in a single Room with a bath; it was spacious enough, and I left the Hotel very satisfied. I would like to stay again!

As last year, I stayed at Sekisuitei with a friend. My friend, who lives outside Hokkaido, stayed here last year and it seems to have become a favorite Hotel. They especially liked that the dinner buffet includes Jingisukan, and that while the Onsen isn’t particularly large, it has an open-air bath and several different baths. (Each one is set to a different temperature.) At the Hotel, we enjoyed soaking in the Onsen many times. From our Room, we could hear the sound of a nearby river (or maybe a small stream), which was very relaxing. We used the Shuttle Service bus, and thanks to the driver’s polite service and careful driving, we felt safe throughout. If possible, I would like the Sapporo departure time to be 1:00 PM. With a 2:00 PM departure, arrival at the Hotel is around 4:00 PM, and by the time you get into your Room and settle in, it’s already about 5:00 PM. It’s disappointing not being able to do any sightseeing around Noboribetsu town.

This is my regular accommodation in Niseko. The room is spacious, quiet, and offers a good environment. The onsen is relatively large and pleasant, but the thermometer has not been displayed for some time. I used to decide between the outdoor bath and indoor bath based on the temperature difference shown by the thermometer, but now I just test with my hand to decide. There are warning signs about slippery floors, but having some anti-slip mats would provide more reassurance. Overall, I had a comfortable stay.

While searching for an Accommodation near Shirakawa-go, we found a Room where each family member could relax and sleep in their own bed, so we booked immediately. Since the entire building is covered with tatami mats, it was very comfortable to stay there. All of the staff provided heartfelt hospitality, the property was impeccably clean throughout, and both the meals and the Onsen were wonderful. We stayed during Obon, and our child was delighted by services such as shaved ice and ring toss. After dinner, when we started to feel a bit hungry again, they offered “yonaki soba” with two types of half-size ramen: soy sauce and Toyama Black. It was delicious. We also accidentally left something behind and contacted them after checkout; they handled it very politely, which we truly appreciated. We would definitely like to stay here again when visiting Shirakawa-go in winter snow as well.

The Onsen water was originally great, but when I stayed again after a long time, it had improved even more. It was already silky-smooth, but this time it also had a stronger sulfur feel and a milky-white appearance—absolutely wonderful. (Just my personal impression.) I don’t usually leave comments, but this was the best so far, so I wanted to share my thoughts. I would like to visit again. Thank you.
