This was my first stay here, and I was satisfied with everything. Since I came after Tamagawa Onsen, I was especially delighted with the meals. I had originally planned to stay two nights, but after watching YouTube, I felt the food there seemed to decline over time, so I changed my mind and canceled one night to try a designer Hotel in Osawa Onsen for a tuna-cutting show. However, I regretted it—it was too late afterward. This place is excellent. Thank you very much for your hospitality; it became a wonderful memory.

For dinner, my spouse and I ordered shabu-shabu and a Hida beef steak, and both were melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The birthday surprise plate was adorable, and I got to celebrate my birthday for the first time in a while. The Onsen left my skin feeling silky smooth. For breakfast, the hoba miso had a pleasant sweetness and was so tasty that I ended up eating too much rice. Thank you for the wonderful meals and the happy time.

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.

Tucked away in a tranquil mountain setting that’s hard to believe is only about a 15-minute drive from central Odate, the view from the open-air bath was wonderfully calming. The building itself feels older, but the guest room was very clean and seemed to have been renovated.

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.

The cuisine, room, Onsen, and hospitality were all wonderful at this Ryokan. The price was also very reasonable. It is located about a 5-minute walk from Echigo-Yuzawa Station, and I loved the location as well. I would like to stay here again if I have the chance.

We stayed on September 10 and 11. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy and rainy, and my husband and I stayed with his parents. My father-in-law suffered a stroke 15 years ago and cannot move the right side of his body well. We brought a wheelchair, which was challenging, but as soon as we arrived, the staff at Yamaboshi came out and helped us with everything together with us. We are truly very grateful. Each dish was carefully prepared, and we enjoyed it not only for the taste but also for how it looked. If we have another opportunity, we would love to visit again. With the autumn foliage season coming up, I’m sure you will be busy—please take care of yourselves and keep up the great work. Thank you very much to everyone at Yamaboshi for your wonderful hospitality. Thank you

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.

We were very satisfied with the views, the meals, and the staff’s service. Cold water was available before and after bathing, and the Room was kept very clean. There were some insects floating in the open-air bath, but that is to be expected at an Accommodation in the mountains; anyone who complains about it has forgotten that they are in nature. We would like to stay again.

This was my second visit to Kamiyamada Onsen, and this time I was able to relax while reminiscing about my previous stay around 10 years ago. We stayed in a Room with an open-air bath, and thanks to the rotation of the large public baths, we were able to fully enjoy both. The sulfur Onsen felt light and gentle on the skin. The meals were delicious with seasonal ingredients, and the tableware was lovely as well. It is a traditional, charming place that makes me want to visit again.

You can enjoy a 24-hour onsen with natural hot spring water flowing directly from the source! The room was a renovated twin room, and the sunken kotatsu was an interesting feature. The beds were fluffy and very comfortable, making for a pleasant stay! For dinner, we had the famous Kiritanpo hot pot served individually in small pots, along with shabu-shabu featuring Kazuno beef and Hachimantai pork—everything was delicious! As mentioned in reviews, there were plenty of options, leaving us fully satisfied. There was also a wide selection of local sake available for tasting. After check-out, I realized I had forgotten something, but they contacted me immediately so I could retrieve it. I truly appreciate their kind assistance! Thank you very much.

Stayed at a reasonable price. The staff were friendly and provided attentive service. The room was clean and comfortable. Meals were delicious and served in a semi-private dining area. The open-air bath had excellent water quality. I would love to stay again if I have the chance.

Nozawa Onsen has few accommodations that allow pets. Among them, we had an excellent stay in a spacious log house room, enjoying a relaxing onsen experience. They provided a parking pass for visiting the public baths in town and even allowed us to use the onsen after the trail race the next day. The attentive service was truly appreciated. We look forward to staying here again when we participate in the race next year.

Dinner was carefully prepared down to each dish. Breakfast was also delicious, just like a classic Ryokan breakfast. The bath was spacious, and I could relax and take my time. This is an Accommodation I’m very satisfied with and would recommend.

I stayed here on a weekday getaway, and in a word: it was amazing! I definitely want to stay again. First of all, I was impressed by the Room—it’s two-story (I’d never stayed in one before, so it felt really special). It was great that the dining area and the place to relax were clearly separated. The entrance is set up so you don’t run into other guests, you can park where you can see your car, and you can even see Mt. Fuji. The meals—from dinner all the way to a late-night snack—were carefully prepared, and I kept thinking, “How full are they trying to make me?” while happily finishing everything (lol). There were other things that impressed me too, but I’ll leave them out. I just wished checkout could be 11:00 so I could relax a little longer. Thank you very much!

This Onsen Accommodation is tucked away in the mountains, a short distance from the center of Shima Onsen. Although I hadn’t made a Reservation, they kindly provided Shuttle Service, which was a big help since walking in the extreme heat would have been tough. There are three private-use baths on the first floor. You can use them anytime if available, and you can also check availability online, which is very convenient. The refrigerator had chilled water inside—a nice touch. Drinks can be purchased from the refrigerator on the first floor. There is also one massage chair. The bath amenities were exceptionally well stocked—possibly the best I’ve ever seen—not only shampoo and conditioner, but also shaving foam and facial cleanser, with a wide variety of options. With three baths for a relatively small number of rooms, it felt like they were available whenever I wanted. Because it’s free-flowing natural hot spring water (kakenagashi), I could even bathe late at night. Being able to soak without worrying about others was wonderful. Compared to the Ryokan’s exterior, the dining area was chic, clean, and newly built. The food was delicious and I was very satisfied. I traveled by train and bus, so limited service frequency is a drawback—but aside from that, this is an outstanding Accommodation.

I had previously visited for a day trip to the Onsen and loved both the Onsen and the scenery, so I decided to stay overnight. The meals were excellent, the view from the Room was wonderful, and my stay was very comfortable. Unfortunately, the outdoor bath in the morning was so cold that it hardly felt like an Onsen.\n\nAs it is currently off-season, there was no shuttle bus on weekdays, which made things difficult. Even one round-trip Shuttle Service would be very helpful.

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.

We booked this Accommodation because there was a residents’ discount, so we decided to stay somewhere nicer than usual. When we stayed before, it wasn’t all-inclusive, so we were really looking forward to it this time. The dango grilling was available until 4:00 p.m. We arrived just in time at 4:00 p.m., but we were glad we still got to do it. The amazake was delicious as well. The Onsen was empty, so it felt like a private bath and was wonderful. After the bath, I went to the alcohol corner for a drink, but the room was hot. When I opened the entrance door for ventilation, it was closed again. I also couldn’t find the air conditioner switch. There was a TV installed, but no remote control, so I couldn’t turn it on. Unfortunately, I went back to our Room right away. It said free Wi-Fi was available; it worked in the lobby but not in our Room, which was disappointing. We were very satisfied with both dinner and breakfast. At breakfast there were many different side dishes for rice, and I ended up running out of rice. There were a few disappointing points, but all of the staff were kind and very pleasant. The Onsen and meals were great as well, so it turned into a wonderful wedding anniversary trip.

Initially, I made a Reservation without dinner to attend a live concert at Kawaguchiko Stella Theater, but the Accommodation kindly provided a Shuttle Service to the theater. This allowed me to have dinner at the Accommodation as well, and I was very satisfied. It was extremely disappointing that Mt. Fuji was not visible at all due to the rain.
