ชิมะ ออนเซ็น × ที่พักสัมผัสธรรมชาติมีคะแนนอาหารสูงโรงแรม·เรียวกัง

It was the best trip. This was a wonderful Ryokan in every respect—Japan’s oldest bath, the cuisine, the service, and the Onsen. I stayed at Kashotei with in-room dining, and every dish of the carefully prepared kaiseki meal was outstanding. The staff were perfect—always smiling and considerate—and the tour was also educational, helping me learn about the hot-spring cure area and the history of the Accommodation. After enjoying the open-air bath, family bath, and Japan’s oldest bath, my skin and hair felt silky smooth. The lounge is great too. Please do visit.

It was a wonderful Ryokan in every respect—hospitality, open-air bath, and meals. I would stay here again.

The Room, baths, and meals were all wonderful. Both the in-room bath and the private Kashinoki-no-Yu Onsen were excellent. When I mentioned that the handle on the bath basket had come off, they responded immediately. As for the food, when I told them I have gout and can’t eat pork, they adjusted part of the meal. Every dish was delicious, and you could really tell how carefully everything was prepared. The soba was also great. All of the staff we spoke with in various situations were very pleasant, and it truly became a memorable trip. The view from the Room was amazing as well. There was a light mist over the mountains, and we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. It rained at night, but that actually made it even more relaxing with the sound of rain—I didn’t feel disappointed at all even though it rained. The American who traveled with me was impressed by everything and happily said they will definitely come again! I rarely write a Review no matter how much I travel, but Tsuruya was truly outstanding. If you’re considering a trip to Gunma, this is an Accommodation I would highly recommend—so I decided to write this Review. Next time, I’d love to enjoy the winter scenery along with the Onsen and meals. We will definitely visit again! Thank you very much.

Although the exterior looks a bit old, once you step inside it is wonderful, and the front desk staff were very pleasant. The open-air bath in the Room was extremely relaxing, and I ended up using it many times.\nUnfortunately, we ran into a typhoon on the way back and had to leave without seeing anything, but I would like to visit again when the weather is good.

The staff were kind and attentive, and I truly appreciated their support. Not only at the front desk, but also when we brought dishes back they promptly collected them, quickly disposed of used slippers and bags, and returned everything neatly. Their greetings in the dining area were also courteous and consistent. Overall, it felt like they paid close attention to guests and provided thoughtful service. The guest room had well-maintained Facility features, and cleaning was thorough down to every corner. One point for improvement: while using the Onsen in the open-air bath attached to the room, bees and longhorn beetles sometimes flew in or came close. I think it would be helpful to install a movable insect screen (even just during summer). For meals, semi-private seating was available, so we could dine calmly. Also, when items ran out at the buffet, they were replenished quickly, which was great.

The spacious hinoki bathtub in the onsen was amazing, with plenty of room to stretch out. As advertised, the BBQ hamburger at dinner was the most delicious. We stayed in a room called "Island Blue," and the wood stove provided a warm and relaxing atmosphere. The autumn leaves from the room and the view of Hosen Gorge within the property were stunning. This time, we used our trial Diamond membership, so late check-out went smoothly; however, it was slightly disappointing that we had to confirm during dinner to receive the Chivas Regal benefit. It seems improvements have been made compared to reviews from a few years ago, so there’s still potential for further growth.

These days, it’s rare to find an Accommodation without foreign staff, and the meals here are very carefully prepared using local ingredients. There are many baths, and they will even let you reserve a large open-air bath that was apparently once used as a mixed-gender bath. It’s an excellent open-air bath and highly recommended. There is also an open-air bath a short walk from the Accommodation, but I was told it can only be used during daylight hours because bears have been seen in the area. The building has the feel of an old Ryokan and shows some wear in places, but it is kept clean and well maintained. The resident cat has changed over time; when I asked the proprietress, she brought her out on a leash. Perhaps because she is well loved, she likes people and will purr even when meeting you for the first time.

It was a wonderfully attentive Accommodation. The food was delicious—above all, the rice was outstanding. The grilled fish was cooked perfectly, and the sashimi was fresh and very tasty. I was also very happy with the late-night rice ball and message. Breakfast had a great variety and was exciting as well. Personally, I especially appreciated having rice porridge. It was raining when we left, but thank you for carrying our luggage to the car. You also lent us an umbrella, so we were able to get to the car without getting wet. I forgot something behind, but I can only be grateful for your kind and careful assistance. I would definitely like to stay again. Thank you for letting us relax and enjoy our time there.
