สถานีต้าเกิง × ที่พักสัมผัสธรรมชาติโรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

From spring through late autumn, you can stay with peace of mind without worrying about road conditions. As a compact Accommodation, it offers reliable service, an Onsen, meals, and great value overall. The private bath is free to use with no Reservation required—if the key is in the designated place, you can use it right away—making it an easy-to-understand and fair system for guests. The public bath is not very large but includes a sauna, and you can relax in the silky Onsen at your leisure, making this an Accommodation you can count on anytime.

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.

This was our fourth stay, visiting at the end of summer with our two dogs. We love how delicious the course dinner is. The Room is clean, and we’re very satisfied with the private bath as well! It seems to be run by brothers, and they are calm, kind, and very pleasant to talk with. We come once a year, and we’d love to visit again.

Stayed for business. The Room is spacious enough and fully equipped with a two-door refrigerator, an IH kitchen, a drink server (coffee, water, and green tea), and an in-room washing machine (powder detergent provided). Shampoo options include Tsubaki and LUX, and the bed with a Sealy mattress is very comfortable. I would like to stay again if I have work in the area.

I stayed again last week. I was planning to ski in Appi, but I gave up on Saturday because of the rain, and on Sunday the lifts stopped operating at 11:00 due to strong winds. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t great. In that sense it was disappointing, but there’s nothing you can do about the weather… Still, Step’s meals are consistently great value for money. I especially love the soups. The turnip soup from a few weeks ago was excellent, and I think it was porcini mushroom soup? The mushroom soup was delicious too. The grilled chicken is also very good. A woman who stayed for the first time last week was impressed as well and said it was delicious. She seems to have become a big fan—“the only choice in Appi!” Even if some of the Facility feels a bit old, that’s part of its charm. The bath temperature might be a little low at times? It feels just right for women. If you like it really hot, it might not be enough. That’s about all if you look closely. I’m satisfied. I’ll stay again.

I had a relaxing stay at this locally-run accommodation. Since I visited Matsukawa Onsen beforehand, I didn’t use the bus. Thank you for accommodating me as a solo traveler. It was my first time at Appi Kogen, and it’s truly an amazing resort area. The atmosphere of the accommodation was also very pleasant. I didn’t get a chance to talk with the host this time, so please chat with me during my next stay!

Thank you for taking care of us on our ski trip. It had been a while since we last stayed at this Accommodation, and we found the charming Western-style building very relaxing, especially with the fireplace in the restaurant. The building is a bit old, but the Room and bathrooms were kept very clean. The hamburger steak dinner was delicious, and on the second night of our Multiple Night Stay we had roast beef. The portions were a little small, so on the second night we bought a late-night snack at a convenience store. On New Year’s Eve, we could also see the countdown fireworks from our Room. It’s quite far from Tokyo so we can’t visit often, but we’d like to stay here again when we go to Appi.

The staff were very kind, and we had a pleasant stay. They were also friendly to our dog, and there was a larger toilet suitable for male dogs. Please note that dogs are not allowed on the human beds, so it’s recommended to bring your own bedding for your pet. Next time, I’d like to try the sauna as well.
