This is my favorite Hotel, which I visit about twice a year. You can relax and unwind surrounded by nature. At night, if the sky is clear, you can see countless stars from the parking lot. The Onsen also has an open-air bath, and it was wonderfully relaxing. Meals are served buffet-style, and dinner in particular features many local ingredients. I enjoyed freshly prepared roast beef and tempura. The cold noodles were also delicious; I asked where they were sold and stopped by on the way home to buy some. For breakfast, I especially loved the yogurt—when I learned it was from a farm in Iwate, I visited there as well. Although our Room was assigned for us, it was spacious, which was great since we had a lot of luggage this time. Overall, it exceeded my expectations for the price.

The room was spacious and comfortable. Although it was a type without an indoor bath, amenities were well-prepared, and the basket bag provided for going to the bath was convenient. It was also nice to be able to choose the size of the yukata. The facility wasn’t brand new but had a clean and pleasant atmosphere. I prefer Onsen water to be slightly hotter, so I deducted one star for that. Meals were served in a large hall, and each dish—whether warm or cold—was served at the right temperature and tasted delicious. There was no coffee in the room, but freshly brewed coffee with free refills was available in the lobby, which was great. The staff created a warm and welcoming atmosphere, which I appreciated. Being able to settle payment before check-out was also convenient.

On August 26, we stayed for one night for two people on a great-value Plan (JPY 4,800) through a Yahoo Travel promotion, including both breakfast and dinner. The Room was a 10-tatami space with an enclosed veranda area furnished with a table and chairs. The wallpaper was new, everything was spotless, and it felt very comfortable. The Onsen we had been looking forward to did not disappoint—the large public bath was spacious and relaxing. The open-air rock bath was also very large and truly soothing. And then dinner—the buffet we had been waiting for! There was a wide selection of Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes, all delicious. In particular, the high-quality beef could be enjoyed as sukiyaki or teppanyaki-style grilled on an iron plate—and seconds were unlimited, making it the best dinner ever. Soft drinks, ice cream, desserts, fruit, and more were also plentiful; considering how inexpensive this Plan was, we honestly felt almost sorry to receive so much. Breakfast was equally impressive: all-you-can-eat salmon roe along with tuna and squid for luxurious seafood bowls. There were so many other options that we couldn’t possibly try everything. Items were replenished immediately when they ran low—truly attentive service in every way. We were simply amazed throughout our stay. Every staff member worked efficiently and professionally; it was a pleasure to see. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us.
