Kusatsu Hotel was established during the Taisho era as a Western-style "Hotel." During the Meiji period, Dr. Bertz, a German medical scientist, praised Kusatsu Onsen, attracting many foreign visitors to Kusatsu. Later, around Showa 27, the hotel was renovated into the current traditional Japanese-style Ryokan, but the name "Hotel" remained. The charm and spirit of hospitality from the Taisho era have been preserved to this day.

A property that welcomes guests with the elegance and joy reminiscent of cherry blossoms. We strive to bring happiness to our valued guests who travel from afar to visit Kusatsu Onsen. With this sentiment, we are committed to providing warm, cheerful, and elegant hospitality.
