생명과 성 박물관 주변 × 자연 체험 숙소평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

On the day of my stay, I decided on a whim, got the Accommodation’s approval, and arrived after 8:00 p.m. When I told a man at the front desk that I was heading to a nearby izakaya for dinner, he cheerfully said, “Then please take this,” and gave me drink coupons for the place, lent me an umbrella, and even showed me a shortcut—always with a smile. It really put me at ease. The private bath was available until 11:00 p.m., so even though I arrived late I could relax and enjoy it. I also appreciated having a beer vending machine in the building. The property is old, but clean in an unpretentious way. The Room, futon bedding, and amenities all felt safe and comfortable to use. The other guests also seemed very considerate. Breakfast was great too—the main dish (grilled pork? hot pot?) went perfectly with rice and egg over rice. These days it’s rare, but everyone on staff I met appeared to be Japanese—maybe just by chance? Everyone provided such wonderful service that more than made up for the age of the building, and it was very comfortable throughout my stay. To be honest (and no offense meant), I only made a Reservation because there happened to be availability and didn’t expect much—maybe that’s why it felt even better. Next time I’d like to visit with dinner included. Thank you very much.

On the second day, heading from Nasu Highlands to Gunma Prefecture, we stayed at Route Inn Shibukawa. Upon arrival, several cars and motorcycles had already arrived, but we were lucky to park under the covered entrance. The next morning, I happened to look at the backyard and saw nearly 30 motorcycles parked, realizing its popularity. The room was neatly arranged, the large public bath was able to relieve the fatigue of the day, and the breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious. Also, from arrival to departure, the staff who served us with smiles throughout, thank you very much for your hospitality. m(_ _)m

From arrival onward, everything was pleasant! They kindly accommodated all of our requests. The Room was clean, and with the toilet and bath separate, it felt spacious and relaxing overall. Having parking right in front of the Accommodation is rare in Ikaho, so that was a big plus. There wasn’t one particular standout dish, but everything was tasty and we ate until we were full. For this price, being able to stay so comfortably felt like an excellent value. Next time, I’d love to come again with my whole family.

We stayed here while visiting Gunma Flower Park, Tonton Plaza, and Mt. Akagi. Unlike Ikaho, the area is not crowded and is quiet, right in front of the Tone River. Dinner was plentiful; after a drink we were full and slept soundly. The bath was also great.

We stayed to celebrate a birthday. It was raining outside, so the indoor play area in the Hotel was a huge help. We arrived at 2:00 p.m., and since we could use the play area before check-in, the kids were thrilled. Since we booked two Rooms, we were able to enjoy each Room as well. The Frozen-themed Room in particular had a swing and a slide, so they played without getting bored. The BBQ ingredients were high quality and delicious. However, there was only sauce, so it would be nice to have salt as well. Also, we ran out of rice, and it took a while for additional rice to be brought out, which was inconvenient. The kids could keep playing in the play area until around 10:00 p.m., and they seemed happy that they could do what they wanted without being scolded like usual.
