We stayed in the Pine Building to spend some relaxing time as a family. The manager was very friendly and kindly explained everything, so we were able to enjoy a comfortable stay. We had planned a barbecue in the very spacious garden, but unfortunately it rained. We were told that rain-cover Facilities will be added soon, and this time they provided us with a parasol, which allowed us to enjoy it. The open-air bath exclusively for the Pine Building was spacious enough, and since it is fed directly from the hot spring source and runs slightly hot, we were able to adjust the temperature using the provided yumomi paddle and even try yumomi ourselves. We also enjoyed an evening stroll of about 10 minutes on foot to Yubatake and experienced Kusatsu at night. The surroundings were very quiet at night, allowing us to relax. As this is a relatively new Accommodation, everything felt very pleasant. We would love to stay again.

This is my third visit. The meals are delicious, and since there is a bath in the Room, you can enjoy it 24 hours a day. The resident dog, Luna, is also very calm and adorable! It’s a Ryokan I truly love—quiet, relaxing, and an extraordinary space where you can unwind. There’s also a dog run where they can run around freely, so the dogs are thrilled! Next time, we’re talking about coming back for a Multiple Night Stay with my husband.

Both dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious, and we were very satisfied!! The baths are divided into a large public bath and a natural hot spring bath; both were very relaxing, and the kids loved them. We’d love to visit again if we have the chance!

The location was excellent, and the Onsen and meals were wonderful. We were also lucky to have great weather—thank you for helping make our stay such an enjoyable and memorable time.

Winter crab, early-summer white squid, and the salt-kiln-grilled abalone we always request as an optional add-on. At Waraku, you can enjoy seasonal delicacies throughout the year, but this time we tried their limited-time wild tiger pufferfish course for the first time, available only around Golden Week. We were truly impressed by the depth of Yuhigaura’s seafood. The beautifully presented sashimi platter (tessa) had a pleasantly chewy texture and was so delicious it ranks No. 1 among all the meals we’ve had at accommodations! The grilled milt was also exceptionally large, plump, and rich—perfect with Waraku’s own-label Junmai Daiginjo sake. And in this season especially, the private garden by the detached guest room feels at its most beautiful, with blooming flowers and vivid green moss. Whenever we’re worn out from everyday life and want to relax and feel restored, we always visit Waraku to Clear our minds.

The Onsen was amazing. Taking a walk and getting a massage made me feel relaxed from the core. The meals were healthy and delicious. It’s close to Tokyo, making it the perfect place for some personal relaxation time. Next time, I’d love to book a Multiple Night Stay!

The staff were very friendly, and there was a lounge where we could relax and enjoy tea at our leisure. The food was delicious, with just the right portions, and we thoroughly enjoyed the desserts as well.

My wife and I stayed here for our usual short getaway. By chance, there were no other guests, so we were lucky to have the large public bath all to ourselves. The staff who assisted us were polite and kind, making it a truly comfortable day. We would love to stay again if we have the opportunity.

The room was neither too spacious nor too small, just the right size for two adults. The room was also clean (though I noticed a long hair on the robe, which concerned me slightly). The bath was an open-air one, and while there were houses a bit further away that made me wonder if they could see in, there were adjustable automatic shutters. When fully lowered, they completely blocked the view from outside and kept out the cold air. Despite snow remaining from the previous day, we could enjoy a warm soak without feeling chilly. The temperature of the bath was just right for relaxing. Concerns: We chose a plan with in-room dining for our meals. However, after grilling meat during dinner, its smell lingered throughout the room until bedtime. While it might have been our oversight as well, future guests opting for this plan might want to keep their bedroom doors closed during meals to avoid this issue. It would be considerate if staff could mention this when serving meals or perhaps provide additional amenities like room sprays alongside air purifiers to enhance comfort further. That said, the meat was tender and delicious; other dishes were also very tasty with portions that felt just right. With free beer dispensers, ice cream machines, drinks in the fridge available at no extra cost, and even foot baths provided—this is overall a wonderful accommodation! Next time I’d love to visit again with my mother. Thank you for your hospitality!

Everything was excellent, including the surrounding environment. The staff and the proprietress were all impeccable in their hospitality. Thank you very much. We will visit again in November to see the autumn leaves.

We chose this Accommodation for our final day. The meals were served in our Room, and above all, the Onsen was outstanding. Every dish was delicious, especially the sukiyaki and the surf clam sashimi. Breakfast was also generous, and the peach we had for dessert was sweet and very tasty. I was surprised by the proprietress’s greeting as it was my first time experiencing that, but thank you for taking the time to come and greet us. We would love to visit again. We will use the bottled natural hot spring water we received at check-out as a substitute for toner.

Originally, my husband and I planned to go by ourselves, but our children decided they wanted to come too and made separate reservations on their own, so it ended up being a family trip. We are truly grateful for the wonderful hot springs, meals, and the kindness of all the staff. At check-in, even though we had booked separately, we were told that you arranged for us to be seated together at dinner, which we greatly appreciated. We were satisfied with everything and would love to visit again if we have the chance.

Everything was wonderful. What impressed me the most was the staff. They were always smiling and did their best to help, which made my stay very comfortable. The meals were delicious, but the rice at breakfast was too firm for me to eat... I think it’s just a matter of preference, but I ended up leaving some (sorry). If I have another opportunity, I would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

It felt like stepping into the world of Anne of Green Gables (though I believe Anne is from Canada...), and it was a wonderful space. The Room also had an antique feel, and my daughter was absolutely delighted. The open-air bath requires a Reservation. Unfortunately, because it’s so popular, we couldn’t use it this time, which was disappointing. Next time I’ll make a Reservation earlier (haha). Since the weather wasn’t great, I’d love to visit again during rose season.

We stayed here for a celebration, and the meals, room, and service were all excellent—our whole family was very happy. If I had to ask for one thing, it would be perfect if both large public baths had an open-air bath and a sauna. Still, the in-room open-air bath was amazing—I even enjoyed it alone with a beer! The celebration cake, the drinks and sweets in the lounge, dinner and breakfast, and all the complimentary items and beverages were wonderful. The guest of honor—and our entire family—were truly impressed. Next time, I’d love to bring my parents as well; we look forward to staying with you again then.

A modern Hotel located next to the Churui Roadside Station. Clean Accommodations are hard to find in this area, so it’s well worth considering when planning an itinerary around Cape Erimo. The alkaline hot spring water leaves your skin feeling smooth.

Although the rain and thick white clouds sometimes blocked the view completely, the views from the Room overlooking the town, from the restaurant, from the lobby in front of the front desk, and from the open-air bath were all wonderful.

Thank you very much for your exceptionally kind and attentive support.

We visited looking forward to the meals and the in-Room Onsen. The food was even more delicious than we imagined, and the attentive hospitality was wonderful—we enjoyed everything from the first appetizer to the final dessert. The next morning’s breakfast also made us happy, as we could enjoy a variety of dishes little by little. If we had been going straight home that day, I would have loved to buy some bread to take with us. The in-Room bath had a generously sized tub, so we could soak and relax at length. We also enjoyed both the open-air bath and indoor bath in the private Onsen. The Room felt comforting, like staying at someone’s home, and we were able to truly unwind. The kitchen is well equipped, so you could cook for yourself (though there was absolutely no need). Personally, I was especially glad that the refrigerator was full-sized—I could easily fit an entire boxed birthday cake inside. The chilled water in that refrigerator had a subtle sweetness too; I ended up loving it and drank it so quickly that I had to get up multiple times during the night to use the bathroom (laugh). I’d love to come back for the winter gratin as well, but I hesitate at the thought of snow piling up as high as 2 meters. We’ll choose our season carefully, but we will definitely return!!

Stayed here for the second night after spending the first night at a pension in Kurumayama. The lakeside Japanese-style room was clean and had everything we needed. The Onsen bath was truly amazing. Due to lack of prior checking, we found out that the attached restaurant was closed for dinner that evening. In the morning, we enjoyed a bakery breakfast box at a lakeside table. The bread and scones were delicious, and the honey was exceptional!
