모리미야노하라역 × 가을의 미각을 즐기는 숙소만족도 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

I stayed here to relax at an Onsen Accommodation. The homemade, heartfelt dishes were truly delicious. Dinner was great, but breakfast was especially memorable—the simmered royal fern, Tochio fried tofu and bamboo shoots, and simmered potatoes were outstanding. The potato salad was also excellent; the woman next to me had finished hers and asked for seconds, so I requested an extra serving as well. After bathing, I opened the Room window and enjoyed the pleasant night breeze from the satoyama countryside, soothed by a chorus of frogs. I was very satisfied!

Mr./Ms. Chitose stayed with us for the third time this year. One of this Accommodation’s highlights is the meals, but above all, it’s the quality of the hot spring water. We look forward to visiting again.

We stayed here for a family trip combined with our annual visit to the graves in Niigata. The building is old, and there was an unpleasant smell outside the room, possibly due to an out-of-service restroom nearby. However, the room was clean, and the Onsen was very relaxing. The Hotel staff were very kind, and we would like to stay here again on our next visit.

Although I stayed for only one night, I was completely satisfied with everything. All of the staff were very pleasant, and the Room was clean and comfortable—I immediately wanted to come back and stay again. The dinner and breakfast at the counter were especially outstanding! You can watch the cooking right in front of you, and you can really feel the care that goes into each dish. I’ve already recommended it to my friends.

This time, I stayed for a one-night trip with a friend after not traveling together for a while. I had previously stayed here for my mother’s birthday, and although it was my first visit in four years, the baths were still wonderful. Above all, I love the location right in the heart of the Onsen town, and I fully enjoyed the Onsen—visiting Oyu twice as well. We booked a breakfast-only Plan, and we were very satisfied with the hearty breakfast; my friend then headed back to Osaka.

After 25 years of visiting Nozawa Onsen just for skiing without staying overnight, this was my first stay. The Onsen was incredibly relaxing, and since it’s available all night, I went in from around 5 a.m.! Every dish was delicious; being in season, we had bamboo shoot rice. The attendant’s hospitality was wonderful, and we had a great conversation about visiting Togakushi Okusha the next day. Breakfast the following morning was also very enjoyable. I’m grateful to have stayed at such a lovely Accommodation and to all the staff. I’d love to stay again!

I stayed at another Accommodation in the same group not long ago, but this was my first return to Tamakiya in 10 years. Last time, discovering Abe Shuzo through the sake pairing was a real highlight, so I did it again this time. Since it was a special occasion, I decided to pay the extra fee and choose the optional premium sake course. It more than lived up to expectations—I truly enjoyed a wide range of excellent sakes, including some with a playful twist. The sommelier’s stories were fascinating, and I wished I could have listened even longer. I was traveling solo, but the staff were consistently courteous and attentive, no different from how they treated larger groups, which I really appreciated. The food was also outstanding: a course featuring plenty of local Niigata ingredients, with every dish delicious from appetizers to dessert. Next time, I’d love to stay in midwinter when there’s deep snow.

I stayed at Naraya Ryokan before moving overseas in November. I won’t be back for a while, but I’m glad I had the chance to stay at such a wonderful Ryokan. The Room, meals, and Onsen were all excellent.

This was my first stay. The Onsen is hot, but it warms you up wonderfully. The meals were beautifully presented, and even the simple dishes served in small bowls were delicious. I was completely satisfied with every dish. The Facility has many stairs, so it’s a good workout for your legs, and the hallways are lined with one painting after another—making even the long corridors enjoyable!! All of the staff were very kind as well. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us!!

This was my second time staying in Nozawa Onsen, and I wanted to try a different accommodation from last time. After reading various reviews online, I decided on this place. There are many public onsen baths near the accommodation, and I enjoyed visiting several of them. The large bath at the accommodation alternates between night and morning use, and since the autumn leaves were beautiful at the time, soaking in the bath while enjoying the view was amazing! The provided amenities were from POLA, which was excellent. Both dinner and breakfast were incredibly delicious—I even had three bowls of rice! The staff members were very kind; it felt almost unfair to pay such a reasonable price for such great service. If I had to mention one downside, as noted in other reviews as well, it would be that the futon mattress was thin with just one layer, making it slightly uncomfortable to sleep on. However, overall, I was extremely satisfied! I'd love to stay here again!

Nozawa Onsen has few accommodations that allow pets. Among them, we had an excellent stay in a spacious log house room, enjoying a relaxing onsen experience. They provided a parking pass for visiting the public baths in town and even allowed us to use the onsen after the trail race the next day. The attentive service was truly appreciated. We look forward to staying here again when we participate in the race next year.

The place had a warm and homely atmosphere, perfect for a relaxing stay. As we had heard from reviews, the meals were made with local ingredients, offering a variety of dishes that were delicious and highly satisfying. The location was also excellent, with a public Onsen just nearby.

The accommodation has been renovated and is very beautiful. The dining area is also very clean and atmospheric, and the food was absolutely delicious, making it a highly satisfying experience. Above all, the staff were incredibly kind, making it a very comfortable place to stay. I would love to visit again. Thank you in advance!

The Facility is a bit dated, but it is well maintained and thoroughly cleaned, so we were able to stay comfortably. The indoor bath is also fed directly from the hot spring source, and we enjoyed it several times both morning and night. Both dinner and breakfast were beautifully presented and delicately seasoned, featuring mountain ingredients and local specialties, and we left feeling very full. Thank you very much.

I returned to Kawazuya again for the delicious food and the Onsen. Soaking in the dimly lit cave bath, I find myself becoming completely empty-minded... it’s a precious time when I can clear my head for a while. After the bath, enjoying the many delicious dinner dishes with Iwanashi sake was the best. The myoga (Japanese ginger) in fried tofu was especially outstanding. Breakfast was also very tasty, enjoyed while looking at the Akiyama-go scenery from the window, and the lightly sweet tamagoyaki made me want more rice. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality from the owner and his wife.

The building exudes a sense of history, though the stairs may not be ideal for those with mobility concerns, the atmosphere is exceptional. Located next to the public bath "Oyu," it is perfect for visiting all 13 public baths in the area. The meals were excellent, and the hospitality from the hostess and accommodation staff was kind and appreciated. This is an accommodation I would love to visit again during a different season.

Although there is only one type of spring source—our favorite sulfur Onsen—we enjoyed how the water color differed between the indoor bath and the open-air bath. The open-air bath also offered beautiful fresh green maple leaves, and we would love to visit again during the autumn foliage season. The meals were a satisfying amount for enjoying drinks, with seasonal items as well. The asparagus tempura in particular was outstanding. The building is old, but the Room had been renovated and was clean. From the Room, we enjoyed the garden flowers and fresh greenery.

The service was attentive and excellent from check-in to dining. Detailed explanations were provided throughout the accommodation, offering a sense of history everywhere. The quality of the hot spring water was exceptional and rare to find elsewhere. I would love to visit again in a different season.

Fireflies might have been gone by mid-July, but we spotted over 10 of them nearby and were deeply moved. The resident cat is very friendly and adorable. The meals were abundant, so much so that we regretted not being able to finish them all. The old building retains the charm of a traditional hot spring retreat from the early Showa era. While some may find it inconvenient, it’s perfect for those who enjoy the sound of flowing rivers, birdsong, and insects. The natural and straightforward hostess adds to the pleasant experience. The surrounding area must be beautiful in autumn as well!
