I stayed here with my parents, who came from far away, while I was on a solo work assignment for my child’s sports day. Just as rumored to be a “beauty bath,” the hot spring left my skin silky smooth and warmed me through to the core—I was completely satisfied. The food was delicious, and we all agreed we want to come again! We were truly satisfied with the hospitality, which exceeded the Accommodation Fee.

Nothing particularly outstanding or disappointing. The location is convenient, and you can start exploring Shirakawa Village from the morning. One of the service staff said they are from Yangon and send money back home to support their parents. I realized how tough that must be. When I went sightseeing, there were indeed many international visitors, but I didn’t feel that as much at this Accommodation. If I have the chance, I’d stay again—that’s about it.

The Facility and the Room felt a bit old, but everything was thoroughly cleaned and very tidy, so we were able to relax comfortably. The bath was also kept clean, and the Onsen felt absolutely wonderful. The meals were mainly mountain vegetables, but they were very delicious. This time we had kiritanpo hot pot, but according to the Reviews, game dishes seem to be popular, so next time I’d like to try them. The doburoku was also great. I’d like to stay at this Accommodation again if I have the chance.

It was my first time visiting Tsuchiyu Onsen, and since it was located in Oku-Tsuchiyu Onsen, a bit further into the mountains from the onsen town, I was able to enjoy the soothing sound of the river and the fresh mountain air, which was absolutely wonderful. The staff at the accommodation were all polite, kind, energetic, and warm-hearted; I felt truly healed by their hospitality. My son was deeply impressed by the tea incense burner in our room and delightedly mentioned how its natural fragrance was much better than detergents or sprays like Risesh. The meals were delicious no matter what we had; you could feel they were carefully prepared with great hospitality. Please continue doing your best with your lovely cats!

Soaking in the Onsen surrounded by nature is truly uplifting. Just an hour from Nagoya is also a plus.

We stayed in the Garden Tower at NASPA New Otani with breakfast only (no dinner). We bought food at a nearby supermarket and checked in. I had confirmed in advance that the Room had a microwave, so we were able to enjoy our meal very nicely. The refrigerator was also larger than in a typical Hotel, so there was plenty of space for drinks, and we could even store ice cream after dinner—very satisfying! Even so, I think it’s amazing how affordable it is. The staff were truly wonderful: when they had time, they worked efficiently on other tasks, and if we hesitated even a little about what to do, they would kindly speak to us. I’d love to stay again sometime.

The Onsen was great, and the meals were excellent as well. However, the Room walls seemed thin, and we could constantly hear an elderly couple in the next room from evening until after midnight and again from early morning.

The Facility is generally a bit dated, but we were able to relax and enjoy a comfortable stay. The open-air bath had great views and good airflow, making it very pleasant, and we enjoyed the different atmospheres in the evening, at night, and in the morning. The washroom and toilet were relatively new and clean. The TV remote was a universal type, which was slightly inconvenient. If you are sensitive to noise from the air conditioning, earplugs may be helpful. At dinner, we enjoyed locally brewed craft beer from Tobetsu Town. If you have time, I also recommend the breakfast—it was delicious. The next day, it was convenient to travel to the ROYCE’ factory from the bus stop right in front of the property.

This was our fourth time staying at an Accommodation in Hida Takayama as a couple, and our second time with our child (following last year). We felt Futari Shizuka was a very well-balanced Accommodation overall. Above all, the view was outstanding—you can overlook the townscape of Hida Takayama from the Accommodation. This was true both from our Room and from the baths. My wife and child were truly amazed by the scenery. Another highlight, along with the view, was the staff’s perfectly measured hospitality. There were international staff members as well, and when our child ended up eating my wife’s dessert, they quietly brought her an extra one. The comfortable sense of distance in their service felt wonderful. Next, about the meals and baths. Dinner let us fully enjoy everything—Hida beef of course, plus foil-baked dishes, tempura, and sashimi. Breakfast also had just the right number of items with a well-balanced selection; for me it was a perfect volume that suited my taste very well. As for the baths, we didn’t use the paid private bath, but we were more than satisfied with just the large public bath! Right after check-in—before dinner—I went into the men’s bath with my child; both the size of the bath area and number of baths were just right, and we could enjoy it together comfortably. The scenery visible from both indoor and outdoor baths was truly spectacular. The next morning we were able to use another bath as well; both the Goemon-style tub and indoor bath were great. Our child happily said they wanted to go in again and again—and that simply doubled our enjoyment. Overall, it felt like an excellent match for us personally. Auberge Hida Takayama and Honjin Hiranoya Annex—where we have stayed before—were also wonderful Accommodations, but Futari Shizuka felt perfectly “just right” in every way while still being excellent. On a personal note, there were sweets and figurines sold next to reception; by chance they had a character figure my child loves, so I could buy it as a gift—which became another great memory from Futari Shizuka for us. There were a few minor points such as steep stairs and some age to parts of the building, but thanks to those superb views and thoughtfully balanced hospitality, it became a trip we were truly satisfied with—and we are very grateful for that experience."""

You can enjoy a carefully prepared meal served in your Room at a relaxed pace. The Facility is old, but it is clean and felt like coming home to my parents’ house. From the window, the view of the mountains of Aone and the sound of birds made me feel refreshed. I would definitely like to visit again.

Thank you very much. Although we booked just before Golden Week, we were able to stay in a Room with a lake view. The interior had been renovated, and the tatami, washbasin, toilet, and shower room were all clean. It was especially nice to be able to see Mt. Fuji from the bath. We also enjoyed the delicious meals. Breakfast was a Western-style set. Since many Accommodations serve Japanese-style breakfasts, it felt refreshingly different. As some guests strongly prefer rice in the morning, it would be helpful if you could let guests know at check-in that “tomorrow’s breakfast is Western-style,” ideally with a sample photo. Many of the staff were from overseas, but their service showed they had received training in Japanese-style hospitality.

We stayed here for our first family trip. Tendo was a wonderful place, and thanks to the Room and baths at Sakaeya Hotel, we had a very enjoyable trip. Thank you very much.

Last year, we had to cancel the Reservation just before our stay as 2 out of 7 people caught the flu. This time, we could only make a one-night Reservation due to limited Room availability, but it was worth it. The meals exceeded expectations—mini osechi, seafood, simmered dishes, tempura, handmade desserts—all in portions more than enough for big eaters. The rice was very delicious and self-serve style allowed us to enjoy as much as we wanted without hesitation. Breakfast included special tofu and was also very tasty. The bath offered a view of snowy landscapes; the water temperature felt slightly lukewarm but perfect for relaxing comfortably. Although the Accommodation has an older feel to it, everything was kept very clean and tidy. The staff were all kind and welcoming. We wish we could have stayed for two nights!

This was my 6th visit to Nakanosawa Onsen and 2nd stay at Osakaya. The onsen water at Nakanosawa Onsen is excellent, which keeps me coming back. While the onsen town lacks entertainment, it’s unnecessary if your main purpose is enjoying the hot springs. Since it was a weekday after summer vacation, there were no other guests, allowing us to enjoy a private experience—an unexpected luxury! At Osakaya, the "Irori Plan" offers outstanding meals. Every dish—from small appetizers to horse sashimi, boar hot pot, and 100% buckwheat soba—is exquisite. Even the rice balls served as a late-night snack are delicious. While the room location may not be ideal for views, the quality of the onsen and meals more than justifies the price. I look forward to visiting again!

I visited during a solo motorcycle trip. Since it was near a ski resort, it seemed off-season, so there were few guests, and I was able to relax and fully enjoy the Onsen. Although I chose a no-meal Plan, I received complimentary coffee and freshly baked croissants in the morning. The croissants were freshly baked and delicious. I would love to visit again if I have the chance.

This was my second stay. The staff at the facility were just as kind and attentive as last time, making my stay very comfortable. The food was delicious, and the Onsen was excellent.

I was a bit worried the road to the Accommodation went so far back, but I arrived safely. It’s a quiet Accommodation on the edge of a rural area. They also offer day-use bathing, but the bath area is spacious so it never felt crowded. The Onsen water was soft and at just the right temperature, and I could relax and soak at ease. Dinner was delicious, and I even enjoyed the kamameshi to finish. At night, the open-air bath under a sky full of stars was outstanding. The rice at breakfast was excellent—no surprise for a region known for its rice. It’s not a flashy Facility, but it was a warm and pleasant Accommodation.

This stay became a truly memorable experience. The staff welcomed us with warm smiles, guided us around the Accommodation with great care, and showed thoughtful attention to every detail—service that naturally made us want to return. We felt comfortable throughout our stay. The Onsen was, simply put, outstanding. Our Room had a private open-air bath that we could enjoy all to ourselves. The water temperature was perfect, and from the moment we stepped in, it felt as if all the tension left our body. Soaking slowly while looking out over the beautiful forest was pure bliss, and we enjoyed it many times during our stay. The amenities also had a wonderful fragrance and quickly became a favorite. We chose the sake tasting Plan, and each selection had its own character and was fun to compare. As a sake lover, I was especially happy to be able to order Hiroki Aiyama separately—an exceptionally rare bottle—so finding it on the menu genuinely thrilled me. It paired perfectly with Aizu dishes such as herring marinated with Japanese pepper leaves. Being able to enjoy such precious sake while traveling is a truly luxurious memory, and it felt like something unique to an Accommodation in Aizu. They also lend inflatable rings for the Onsen. At first I thought, “An inflatable ring in an Onsen?” but after trying it, I was honestly amazed by how comfortable it was. Floating effortlessly while soaking lets you relax even more deeply than usual. It made me appreciate both their creativity and their playful desire for guests to fully enjoy the Onsen experience. The inflatable ring left a strong impression—I could soak almost face-down in complete relaxation. The cuisine, Onsen, and service were all excellent; this wasn’t an Accommodation where only one aspect stood out—the entire experience was consistently high quality. Thoughtful care could be felt everywhere, and the whole place overflowed with genuine hospitality. People say travel is defined by where you stay, and this visit truly proved that saying right. From the superb Onsen and heartwarming service to the eye-opening inflatable ring experience, it became a wonderful trip filled with great memories. We would love to visit again in another season—thank you very much.”

The Onsen was wonderful, and the thoughtfully prepared seasonal cuisine was delicious. The Room was barrier-free, with views of the green mountains from the window. Art panels and lighting featuring Gokayama washi paper were used throughout, creating a very pleasant space. The bed firmness was just right, helping us recover from travel fatigue, and we were able to relax and take our time. We also learned about the Kokiriko folk song at this Accommodation. The staff were friendly and attentive, making this an Accommodation whose hospitality stayed with us. Thank you very much.

We stayed as a family. Our children really enjoyed the kid-friendly quests and fireworks. We were also able to relax in the large public bath. I do wish there had been a bit more consideration regarding the morning open-air bath tub, but the meals were just right, we could fully enjoy the wine including welcome wine, and we would like to stay again.
