Manza Kogen Hotel

We stayed as a couple.The open-air bath was outstanding—easily the best among all the Onsen Accommodations we’ve stayed at. The water quality was excellent, and we were able to fully enjoy Manza Onsen’s signature milky, cloudy waters to our heart’s content.It was our first time trying a mixed-gender open-air bath, but we decided to go in together “since we were here and wanted to make a memory.” We were a little nervous at first, but it turned into a truly fun experience and an unforgettable memory for us as a couple.When I asked a staff member who was cleaning the washing area by the open-air bath, they responded very politely, and I really appreciated the kind service.The meals were more than satisfying, and the Room was spacious and comfortable—there wasn’t anything to complain about.Before staying, I thought, “At this price point, it’ll probably be about what you’d expect,” but after actually staying here, it far exceeded our expectations. It honestly felt like twice the value for money—we’re extremely satisfied.Next time, we’d love to visit in another season and enjoy these wonderful hot springs again.

I stayed one night at Rindokan.The Room was very spacious, and I was able to relax comfortably.However, I noticed some stains on the carpet in the Room, which made me hesitate to walk barefoot. If there is an opportunity for renovation in the future, I think converting it to a Japanese-style room would make it even nicer.As for the baths, I was looking forward to the famous rock garden open-air bath, but in the women-only open-air bath there seemed to be sand or small pebbles on the bottom of the tub, which concerned me a little.On the other hand, Hyakusen-no-Yu had a clean changing area and the Onsen was very pleasant—I was very satisfied with this one.I would like to stay again.Thank you.
