키리하라역 (니가타현) × 가을의 미각을 즐기는 숙소고객 서비스 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

We avoid peak seasons and, every year in late August after the Obon holidays, my spouse and I visit a nearby Onsen to relax. We have stayed at this Accommodation once before, and the views from both the Room and the baths were excellent, and we were very satisfied with both breakfast and dinner. Dinner in particular was an abundant spread—crab, abalone, lobster, beef steak, simmered nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch), and sashimi including fatty tuna—so many dishes that we couldn’t finish them all.

Teradomari offers a wide range of Hotels and Ryokan along its long coastline, making it hard to choose, but I was drawn to Hokushinkan, nestled in the mountains a little away from the shore. This renovated former therapeutic Accommodation features two types of lukewarm baths and only seven Rooms, which sounded perfect for a quiet stay, so I chose a Room with a private bath. The Room we stayed in had tasteful, refined interiors, and from the window we enjoyed fresh greenery in the mountains and garden as well as small birds. No slippers are needed inside the building. Both breakfast and dinner were beautifully presented and delicious, allowing us to relax and spend our time peacefully. We would love to return as a couple for a Multiple Night Stay next time. (We were so full that we couldn’t finish the rice and miso soup, so we’d like to try again.)

We ended up staying an extra two nights after the Nagaoka Fireworks. The location is very convenient for street food in Teradomari, fishing at the fishing port, and nearby beaches. The Facility itself is new and clean. The parking instructions were a bit hard to understand, but there is also parking in front of the Facility, and it seems fine to park there. The bath is not an Onsen, but if you look around, there are plenty of hot springs nearby. Highly recommended for international guests as well. We would love to stay again!
