At night, we could see a beautiful moon and stars from the open-air bath, and in the morning we enjoyed views of the Northern Alps mountain range—overall, we were able to fully enjoy the Onsen. With plenty of greenery around, it’s a place I’d like to visit during a long holiday. As for the Facility and breakfast, they felt average—neither particularly good nor bad.

We stayed for a Multiple Night Stay to climb Mt. Norikura and visit Kamikochi. The location was excellent—just a short walk to the bus terminal—so we’d like to stay here again for our next hike to Nishiho Maruyama! The Hida beef teppanyaki dinner was absolutely delicious. Thank you for your hospitality.

We stayed here after visiting Togakushi Shrine. With only 12 Rooms, we were able to use the bath with hardly anyone else around. The open-air bath was pleasantly warm, so we could soak slowly and relax—it felt wonderful. Both dinner and breakfast were very delicious. The rice in particular was outstanding—soft, slightly sticky, and naturally sweet—and we enjoyed it until we were completely full.

We stayed as a family of three and were very satisfied with the sophisticated soba-based creative cuisine and excellent service. The facility is simple, making the price reasonable, and it was impeccably clean. This is an accommodation we would love to visit again and again.

I always think the Onsen is wonderful. I sometimes wish the Room had a bed, but the atmosphere is quite nice. The meals are a bit too large for elderly guests, and I feel bad leaving food. It’s an Onsen I’d like to visit again.

The facility has a vintage charm, and the bath exudes a sense of history with impressive views from the open-air bath. The staff are friendly, making for a comfortable stay.

Considering the balance with the price, the cost performance is excellent. However, while the hot spring source is hot, the bath is a bit lukewarm. It might be fine in summer, but I thought it should be a bit hotter in winter.

Enjoy the great nature of Nasu with a sauna & Onsen. The Facility was highly satisfying. We look forward to visiting again next year.

Hirayu Onsen has milky-white, iron-rich waters. After a day of hiking, it warmed us up wonderfully. The open-air bath was especially nice. The meals focused on local specialties, and we were able to enjoy a full range of Gifu delicacies such as Hida beef shabu-shabu, hoba miso, and salmon sashimi. It was supposed to be the standard meal plan, but for us—a couple in our mid-50s—it was more than luxurious enough and very satisfying. As for hospitality, the woman at the front desk, the woman who served our meals, and the man were all friendly and warm. It’s also convenient—about a 5-minute walk to the Hirayu Bus Terminal for buses to Kamikochi. We had a wonderful trip.

We enjoyed a lot at the Hotel, playing mini-golf and swimming in the pool. If we had more time, it seemed fun to take the lift to enjoy the scenery and go hiking. I thought it was a good Hotel to stay with children and spend time leisurely. The bath was also nice, and the buffet restaurant was delicious and good.

The cheerful greetings from the Accommodation staff made for a wonderfully pleasant welcome. The biggest highlight was the two types of free-flowing open-air Onsen baths! By alternating between the deep low-temperature and high-temperature baths, even I—who tends to overheat easily—was able to soak for a long time and fully enjoy the Onsen. I highly recommend trying it. It would be even better if there were welcome drinks or coffee available. Just as the Accommodation name suggests, there was a lucky bell on the chopstick sleeve—a thoughtful touch that made me happy.

The area is surrounded by a few houses and lots of trees, creating a very relaxing space where you can forget about your daily life. Highly recommended for those who want to spend time leisurely in nature. The kitchen utensils are sufficiently equipped, so you won't have trouble cooking. The hand soap provided was from diptyque, allowing us to enjoy its fragrance. As for the sauna and Onsen, we were extremely satisfied. Turning off the lights revealed a starry sky, which was truly moving. Since there were no fences, you could sit comfortably, and the nearby trees allowed us to feel close to nature. The disappointing aspects were the limited cooking ingredients, the towels having a damp smell, which was slightly unpleasant, and the showerhead being broken, making it difficult to use. It would be better if the amenities were more well-prepared. Nonetheless, I would love to visit again! Regarding the price, it was a bit disappointing that despite making an early Reservation, there was a last-minute discount on the official website, making it about 5,000 yen cheaper.

More and more Accommodations that welcome dogs have been appearing in recent years, and I stay at various private rental homes around Japan a few times a year. Among them, JADE GROUP’s Accommodation is outstanding in every way (this was my third stay including other JADE properties). The stylish exterior, interior design, and furnishings; the more-than-generous space and openness; and the spacious bathroom were all clean and made for a very comfortable bath time. I loved the overall simple yet luxurious atmosphere. The kitchen appliances were fully equipped, and having a Dyson vacuum cleaner plus a washer-dryer permanently installed was extremely helpful for someone like me who is a bit particular about cleanliness. With such excellent Facilities, I did wish there were at least basic amenities provided as well. From the large living-room windows, you can enjoy views of mountains and rural scenery. In this quiet setting with complete privacy from others, we were able to relax at our own pace—and it still didn’t feel like enough time—so if possible, I recommend a Multiple Night Stay.

We stayed here to celebrate our dog’s birthday. 2 adults and 2 dogs. The Room was very nice, and we were able to enjoy the Onsen comfortably. However, dinner was shabu-shabu with high-quality international beef and it was delicious, but there was only one plate of sashimi. Even though the Room and Onsen were wonderful, we felt a bit disappointed with the meals. I think one plate of meat is fine, but it would be better if condiments and sashimi were prepared individually for each person. Breakfast was supposed to be delivered in a box, but there were no details about the explanation or where it would be placed, so we ended up searching all over the Room and the food got cold. Also, we felt the seasoning was a little strong. It was nice to relax with minimal staff interaction, but we also felt there was too much self-service for what you pay. At least for meals, it would be better if they could deliver them and set them up for us. We’re not sure about staying again next time. We were very satisfied with the Room and Onsen. We think this Accommodation is great for larger groups of friends who want to have fun together.

The Japanese-style room was relaxing and pleasant.

We stayed as a family of four. The open-air bath on the rooftop was a natural hot spring, and it was very pleasant. Since there were fewer reservations, we were able to use the private bath twice. The dinner course used local ingredients and was very delicious, and we were full after ordering additional cheese fondue. The master's explanation of the cuisine and onsen was very detailed, which doubled our enjoyment. There is a footbath in front of the hotel, and it is also close to the famous open-air bath "Sunayu," so we were able to enjoy it at a leisurely pace. Also, there are three cute cats inside the nearby Onsen Museum. It's a must-see for cat lovers.

Since I visit Madarao Kogen 2–3 times every year, I always book this Room for a Multiple Night Stay whenever it is available. The Facility is understandably a bit dated, but the Room is thoroughly cleaned, and I truly appreciate how kindly they take care of me even when I arrive late each time.

Red Snow Crab Course: Sashimi, grilled, boiled, tempura, and hot pot—so much food that you'll be completely full. It's amazing how much volume 2.5 crabs provide. Very satisfying. The bath is an Onsen and feels great, though the slight chlorine smell was a bit noticeable. The Room was a spacious 5-person room used by just 2 people. However, being on the first floor meant poor views, and the lack of a refrigerator in the room was slightly disappointing.
