Hotel Daisen Shirogane

It may not be flashy, but this Accommodation offers great meals, excellent cleanliness, and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The building itself is probably old, but it is kept very clean. You lay out your own futon, but since you can do it whenever you like, it was actually better that way. And the food was absolutely delicious! At dinner, they timed things perfectly and brought soup just when we were ready to eat rice. They also kindly accommodated our request to change breakfast to a boxed meal for pickup at 4:00 a.m. due to an early departure. The front desk staff were very kind and pleasant. They let us leave our luggage in a large hall while we went hiking, and after coming down we could bathe and then sort our bags and rest there, which was a huge help. When climbing Mt. Oyama, I would definitely like to stay here again.

We stayed here in September during Silver Week for our first hike of Mt. Daisen, as a couple with our son. There were other options, but we chose this Hotel because it’s close to the trailhead. The Hotel itself feels a bit dated, but the room was clean and we had no particular complaints. If anything, the large public bath felt slightly lukewarm. The weather was bad and we postponed our hiking day by one day, so we ended up being one night short and had to quickly make a Reservation at another Hotel—this was the only hectic part. Overall, the Hotel had a warm, homey atmosphere, and all the staff were polite and very pleasant.
