오제 호수 주변 × 웰컴 라운지에서 쉴 수 있는 숙소만족도 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

This was my first stay. The forest road to Kawamata Onsen is narrow and quite long, and it really felt like heading to a hidden hot spring. I kept driving, wondering if there was really a Hotel ahead, but arrived safely in the end. The building is old, but the Onsen has been thoroughly renovated into a very comfortable Facility. The open-air bath beside the powerful mountain stream was dynamic and wonderful. The meals were also luxurious, with salmon roe, fresh sashimi, sukiyaki hot pot, and steak from the live kitchen. I would definitely like to stay again.

Excellent value for money! The meals were especially good.

The Onsen temperature and water quality were excellent, and we were very satisfied. There were many types of shampoo available, so we could try different ones—an amazing idea and a first-time experience for us! However, it was disappointing that only one towel was provided and reusing it was expected (additional towels cost extra). We’d like there to be no limit for overnight guests. The guest Room is old, but it’s a satisfying size. As for the air conditioning, there was no heating/cooling switch in each Room—only fan strength adjustment. After the Onsen it felt hot, so we opened the windows fully to cool down with outside air. The meals were delicious and the portions were just right—we finished everything (both of us are women in our 50s). Rice doesn’t come unless you ask for it, but there weren’t many staff members so it was hard to find the right timing. Amenities are available at the front desk, so you take what you need; I think that’s good because it avoids waste. There are yukata and samue as loungewear; we chose samue and that was the right choice. We usually bring our own loungewear when traveling, so we appreciated having less luggage. Overall, it was excellent! Also, we were happy with the welcome drink service (alcohol)—whisky or wine is fine—but we’d appreciate it even more if beer were available.
