Around Shizukuishi Golf Course × Stays Popular For Snow-View BathsHighly rated facilities at Hotel·Ryokan

It was a truly relaxing experience. The view from the room was spectacular. The bath was an open-air bath surrounded by the forest, offering a heavenly experience. You can enjoy different types of baths with unique atmospheres. At night, you can marvel at the star-filled sky. Meals featured an abundance of local ingredients from the prefecture, and drinks were reasonably priced. I had an amazing time and would love to visit this accommodation again. Iwate is vast, and there are still so many places I want to explore!

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.

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.
