Magi Onsen

I had read the information in advance, but the road to the Accommodation was quite narrow, which made me a little uneasy. Since there are two routes, if you’re concerned, it might be a good idea to contact the Accommodation beforehand and ask. However, from the moment I arrived and saw the entrance gate, I was truly impressed by its charming atmosphere. At reception, I was happy to be greeted so politely. It was rainy and chilly, but they warmed up my Room and even provided a hanten jacket—such warm hospitality. Both dinner and breakfast were very delicious, and I finished everything. After breakfast, I enjoyed the coffee service across the bridge on foot. The Onsen was great—not only in the Room but also with private baths that we could enjoy. Thank you very much.

Because I live in Kanagawa and this area is so close, I had never looked for Accommodation around here before. Thanks to IKYU, I was able to discover such a wonderful Accommodation so nearby. Although I had seen some comments from other guests complaining about the staff’s service, every member of the team provided warm, hospitality-filled service without exception, and I truly enjoyed my stay in the best possible mood. This is a very quiet Accommodation with only 16 Rooms, and there are Onsen not only in the Rooms but also private baths and a large public bath. The meals were plentiful and well balanced; we were delighted to enjoy grilled char (iwana) with salt and Koshu beef as well. The road leading to the Accommodation is narrow, but as it is the only property there, it felt like a hidden hot spring retreat—absolutely wonderful. Even in this time of labor shortages, an elderly staff member kindly took care of us attentively until the very end. Knowing how demanding it must be late at night and early in the morning left me deeply impressed. They even saw us off until we were completely out of sight. I would love to visit again; however, we were told that only 8 of the 16 Rooms are currently in operation, making Reservations difficult to secure. I am truly grateful for an unforgettable trip accompanied by the soothing sound of the river flowing throughout the night.
