The location is simply outstanding. From anywhere on the property, I could see Mt. Bandai beyond Yairoku Pond, and I was moved again and again. In addition, the service, dinner and breakfast, open-air bath, cleanliness, and the lounge’s ease of use were all excellent and comfortable. I’m glad I chose Urabandai Kogen Hotel for my commemorative trip. The nature that changes with each season must be wonderful as well, so next time I’d love to visit in a different season. Thank you very much.

The Onsen water was excellent, and the meals were more than satisfying. Although this is a long-established Ryokan, it doesn’t feel overly formal, and the check-in guidance was efficient and pleasant. With a good balance between service, Facility quality, and price, I think this Accommodation can satisfy most types of guests. There are three main bathing areas, each offering different spring qualities with free-flowing hot spring water. I especially liked the bath called “Saru-no-Yu.” It’s a large Ryokan, but the Onsen is so good that even hot-spring enthusiasts should be satisfied. The dining area is also very spacious; we were told all 96 rooms were fully booked on our stay, but at the times we went for dinner and breakfast it felt relaxed, with only about half of the tables in use. There is also a wide selection of alcoholic drinks, so guests who enjoy alcohol should have plenty to choose from.

The service exceeded the price, and we were very satisfied with the meals. The evening events—Aibase! and Odoransho—were interactive and a lot of fun. We’d love to visit again in a different season. They also offer a great selection of local Fukushima sake, which is wonderful for anyone who enjoys Japanese sake.

The attentive service truly lived up to its reputation as a “guesthouse.” The view from the main building’s open-air bath overlooking Lake Hibara was outstanding. The open-air bath exclusively for Nekoma Rikyu guests also had a calm atmosphere and was equally wonderful. There are many thoughtful services, including a shuttle bus you can board without a reservation, complimentary drinks in the lounge, a bar where you can enjoy darts and billiards, and the Lake Hibara View Room. The corridor leading to the open-air bath was dark and felt unsafe for my elderly mother’s footing, so I mentioned it at the front desk; the next day they turned on the lights from early in the evening. The staff were kind, and we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. I would definitely like to stay again.

The Onsen was incredibly relaxing, and I was able to unwind and enjoy a peaceful stay. I also appreciated that it is free-flowing from the source and available 24 hours a day. The water temperature was just right, and it left my skin feeling silky smooth. We had dinner on a riverside dining platform, and it was wonderful to enjoy the scenery and the sound of the flowing river while eating. The meal was delicious and had a great seasonal feel. The staff were courteous, which made the stay very comfortable. I would love to return if I have the chance.

Although the building is old, it was clean, and it was a comfortable Hotel where you can use the bath at any time. The downside is that Wi‑Fi cannot be used in the Room. Since it is in the mountains, mobile reception is weak and the connection is poor. The road to the Hotel is poorly paved, and I felt it could be a bit dangerous after dark.

We enjoyed delicious cuisine and the Onsen, making for a fun and wonderful summer vacation. The 30-tatami Room we used for the first time was also impressive. We also enjoyed Aizu’s local specialties, including Kozuyu and dried cod (bo-dara).

It was busy because it was during the summer vacation season, but the bath was spacious, so it didn’t feel too crowded. The food was delicious, but I felt our table was a little far away. Overall, it was good!

The Room was assigned at the property’s discretion, but it was a perfectly nice Room. I felt very satisfied for such a reasonable price. They walked around serving freshly grilled food, and they also took a family photo for us at the table. There was a manga corner, so we enjoyed ourselves without getting bored.

The breakfast is delicious and satisfying.

My daughter, who lives far away, was able to come home during the holiday weekend, so we stayed on 9/20 during Silver Week. We originally had another hotel booked and planned to go grape picking in Fukushima and then head to Morioka, but with the typhoon making the weather uncertain, we kept looking until the last minute for something closer. When a room with a private open-air bath became available, we quickly booked here. Since our family travels everywhere by car, changing our plans gave us extra time. We arrived early and were about to take a walk nearby when the parking staff recommended some spots for us. The footbath was wonderful. The private open-air bath in the room doesn’t have a washing area, but it wasn’t an issue at all—just wash first at the large public bath or in the indoor bath in the room. Dinner and breakfast are buffet-style. When traveling as a family of four, we usually choose buffet hotels, so we really appreciate Itoen Hotel for its reasonable pricing. Some people have various opinions about the food, but if you search under the same conditions (a room with a private open-air bath), most places cost about twice as much or more than Itoen Hotel. If you’re unhappy, you simply need to increase your budget. The Tsukimi fair set dishes and—during Silver Week—the bluefin tuna and roast beef sushi were especially popular. The ramen was also delicious; since this is Fukushima, maybe it had a Kitakata-style soup? Our family was very satisfied. Because of the typhoon we decided to relax at the hotel: soaking in the hot springs many times, eating until we were full, winning prizes in the game corner, and having fun playing table tennis. We had a great time. Since I booked in such a rush, I caused trouble due to my own mistake—I’m sorry about that. Also after checking out and leaving, we realized my daughter’s important item was missing. When we turned back and returned to the hotel, you immediately found it (it was at the shop), which truly helped us so much. Thank you very much for your support. Lastly, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone at this hotel—the person who assisted us by phone regarding my reservation mistake; as well as staff at reception/front desk; parking; restaurant; shop; housekeeping; and all other team members. Thank you very much.

It was a very nice Room, and we enjoyed the meals as well. However, there was one thing that concerned us: when the toilet paper ran out, we tried to replace it with a spare roll but couldn’t. We were very disappointed, perhaps because some guests take it home.

As a travel-loving couple, we’ve recently been taking trips where we stay at a Hotel and eat at local restaurants, so this was our first Ryokan stay in a while. We were completely satisfied with everything—the Room, the bath, and the food—and were able to relax and take our time. The Room was honestly too spacious for just two of us, but every space—the Japanese-style room, Western-style room, and bedroom—had its own charm and was wonderful. The bed was also extremely comfortable, and we slept soundly. We also enjoyed the Bluetooth speaker in the Western-style room; it had great sound quality and created an atmosphere that felt like being in a bar. The open-air bath in the Room had continuously flowing natural hot spring water, so we could soak right away after arriving and truly unwind. Dinner featured locally produced Aizu cuisine, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The recommended sake was delicious as well, and it was nice to be able to ask casually for suggestions while choosing. The pricing also felt very reasonable overall. If I had to mention one thing, breakfast was slightly disappointing: refills of rice or tea had to be requested via the in-room phone, and they took quite a while to arrive—so it would have been better if tea had been left in a pot. We were happy with the service too, and would love to visit again if we have the chance.

We were very satisfied with our stay, enjoying delicious local cuisine and locally brewed sake. The staff were all warm and welcoming, and their service was excellent.

It was quiet and relaxing! Thank you very much. The kitchenware was well-equipped, which was very helpful! It would have been nice to have some plastic wrap, though! I should have brought some myself. Thank you for your hospitality.

This stay became a truly memorable experience. The staff welcomed us with warm smiles, guided us around the Accommodation with great care, and showed thoughtful attention to every detail—service that naturally made us want to return. We felt comfortable throughout our stay. The Onsen was, simply put, outstanding. Our Room had a private open-air bath that we could enjoy all to ourselves. The water temperature was perfect, and from the moment we stepped in, it felt as if all the tension left our body. Soaking slowly while looking out over the beautiful forest was pure bliss, and we enjoyed it many times during our stay. The amenities also had a wonderful fragrance and quickly became a favorite. We chose the sake tasting Plan, and each selection had its own character and was fun to compare. As a sake lover, I was especially happy to be able to order Hiroki Aiyama separately—an exceptionally rare bottle—so finding it on the menu genuinely thrilled me. It paired perfectly with Aizu dishes such as herring marinated with Japanese pepper leaves. Being able to enjoy such precious sake while traveling is a truly luxurious memory, and it felt like something unique to an Accommodation in Aizu. They also lend inflatable rings for the Onsen. At first I thought, “An inflatable ring in an Onsen?” but after trying it, I was honestly amazed by how comfortable it was. Floating effortlessly while soaking lets you relax even more deeply than usual. It made me appreciate both their creativity and their playful desire for guests to fully enjoy the Onsen experience. The inflatable ring left a strong impression—I could soak almost face-down in complete relaxation. The cuisine, Onsen, and service were all excellent; this wasn’t an Accommodation where only one aspect stood out—the entire experience was consistently high quality. Thoughtful care could be felt everywhere, and the whole place overflowed with genuine hospitality. People say travel is defined by where you stay, and this visit truly proved that saying right. From the superb Onsen and heartwarming service to the eye-opening inflatable ring experience, it became a wonderful trip filled with great memories. We would love to visit again in another season—thank you very much.”

Stayed for one night with breakfast included. The room was a traditional Japanese-style Room, showing some age but overall clean. There were many stink bugs, but it seemed unavoidable due to the season. The Onsen had thick, smooth water and also offered private baths, which were fantastic. Breakfast included several small side dishes that were lightly seasoned and healthy. We enjoyed it, though preferences may vary. Overall, it was a great place, and we would love to stay again if given the chance.

We stayed here during Golden Week. The price was not a special rate, yet it included two meals for one night at this cost. We arrived without high expectations, but although the building is old, it was well cleaned, and all the staff were polite with excellent service. The food was also very delicious. If we have the opportunity, we would like to stay again.
