Sekitar White World Oze Iwakura × Penginapan Menikmati Cita Rasa Musim LuruhMakanan di Hotel·penginapan gaya Jepun dinilai tinggi

It was located in a wonderfully nature-rich setting. The meals were also very delicious. The private open-air bath in the detached annex was a truly special, escape-from-the-everyday experience. I’d love to visit again.

If you love Onsen, this place is truly heaven—there are 18 private baths. This was my third stay, and I still haven’t managed to try them all. The detached cottage “Aoi” has its own open-air bath, which is absolutely wonderful. I always end up completely satisfied just using the bath in the Room. The spring quality is a simple Onsen (slightly alkaline, hypotonic, high-temperature) with a pH of 8.3. It feels gentle on the skin and is easy to enjoy in a different way from more distinctive springs like sulfur Onsen. It’s comfortable for longer soaks, and being able to enjoy it many times during your stay is part of the appeal. Many of the open-air baths have a rustic, DIY-like feel. Numerous private baths are scattered across the vast grounds, and I can only imagine how much work it must be to maintain and manage so many. Because this Accommodation is surrounded by nature, things like insects and fallen leaves are somewhat unavoidable. In July there were quite a few insects, and when I visited last September I also had trouble with biting gnats. Even so, this Accommodation has more than enough charm to make up for it. The source spring has an abundant flow rate, and the source temperature is very high at 76.1°C. To bring it down to a comfortable temperature, adding water may sometimes be necessary. As an Onsen lover, I’d ideally like to enjoy pure free-flowing water without dilution—but with such a high-temperature source spring, I understand that temperature control can be challenging. Many of the staff are from overseas, but everyone speaks Japanese well and I’ve never felt inconvenienced. They are always polite and attentive. And despite being such a secluded hot-spring retreat, it’s great that the meals are genuinely delicious as well. This time we ordered sukiyaki as an extra dish; it was excellent and very satisfying. In winter this area apparently gets extremely heavy snowfall. Next time I’d love to visit in winter and enjoy an outdoor bath while admiring snowy scenery.

My husband grew up in a ranch in Hokkaido, while I was raised in the city. Drawn to this thatched-roof Accommodation, we stayed here for the first time. From the view at the entrance, we were amazed by the extraordinary, nostalgic buildings and the rice fields spreading out in front of them! We both fell completely in love with it. The Onsen is also wonderful—the free-flowing natural spring water is slightly lukewarm, perfect for a long soak. It leaves your skin feeling soft and moisturized. What’s especially impressive about this Accommodation is the many furnishings and antiques placed throughout, delighting the eyes everywhere you look! It feels like visiting an art museum. Truly amazing! My husband can be quite particular, but he absolutely loved it and says he definitely wants to come again in autumn. Getting to the annex using the cart and monorail was also fun and brought back childhood memories. Thank you so much for such a wonderful place.

The Onsen was wonderful. We couldn’t finish all the meals. We’d like to stay again.

Thank you very much for your hospitality. I stayed here on a trip with my father. Because there was a family with children next door, we were slightly bothered by the sound of running inside, and it was also difficult to use the bath with the blinds open. I found myself wondering whether it might be visible from the road across from the property. Also, since there is no hedge or barrier between neighboring terraces, I thought a low fence might be helpful. As it was the season for stink bugs, there were quite a few indoors, so additional measures would make it even better. However, the food was exceptionally delicious, so overall we were very satisfied. We would love to stay again someday.

Both dinner and breakfast included warm dishes, and everything was very delicious. The portions were generous. We could use the bath as a private reservation, which made us feel at ease. The Room was clean and comfortable with no issues. There are no amenities provided, so bringing your own towels, bath towels, and toothbrush is essential. I would like to stay again.

We stayed here as a family of five on a family trip! The host was incredibly warm and welcoming, and we had a wonderful time. Due to our schedule, we only had dinner, but the food was so delicious that we wished we had tried breakfast as well. Everything was tasty, the portions were generous, and we were very satisfied. After the fish main course, we were also served a meat dish, and with the delicious rice, we couldn’t stop going back for seconds. The bath is an Onsen with great water quality, and it helped us relax and recover from our fatigue.

Excellent value for money! The meals were especially good.

I was a little uneasy when I arrived because the Accommodation’s exterior has quite bold colors, but there was no need to worry. The Room was a 6-tatami Japanese-style room, and it was nicely cleaned. Both dinner and breakfast were generous portions and delicious. I wonder if most of the ingredients were local? The tomatoes and corn were sweet and tasty. The bath isn’t an Onsen, but the water was pleasantly warm and I could relax. The surrounding nature is refreshing, and the river water is so clear you can see all the way to the riverbed. There are no shops nearby, but that inconvenience might actually be part of the charm. You may want to bring your own towel, hair dryer, toothbrush, etc. It feels more like a dormitory than a Hotel. With the beautiful nature around it and how pleasant all the Hotel staff were, I think it’s a great Hotel that makes you want to come back.

We stayed for 3 nights and 4 days for a tournament. The staff kindly prepared an early breakfast just for us to match the ski resort's opening at 8 AM. Each meal had a different menu, which was very satisfying. The bath was almost private, allowing us to relax and recover, with the temperature being perfect even for my husband who usually doesn't enjoy Onsen. We will definitely stay here again when we participate in next year's tournament.

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.
