สถานีŌnohara × โรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

This was my second stay, following last year. The lobby, Room, and large public bath are clean, spacious, and comfortable. The large public bath is excellent. The Onsen leaves your skin feeling smooth, and I especially liked the open-air bath with a very hot option. Breakfast featured many Chichibu specialties and was healthy, so I could eat plenty without feeling heavy—while still offering hearty options for those who want a more filling meal. I’d love to stay here again when I visit Chichibu.

I stayed in Room 103. The Room was very spacious, and the original traditional materials have been preserved, creating a wonderful, out-of-the-ordinary space where I could relax and unwind. The bath was also a hinoki cypress bath with a gentle cypress fragrance that was incredibly soothing. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, and the staff kindly explained the carefully selected Chichibu ingredients, which made the meal even more enjoyable. This is a Hotel I definitely want to stay at again!

All of the staff were truly kind and very helpful. After we arrived, they quickly carried our luggage, and the person who served our meals was genuinely wonderful. We received excellent service in a beautiful natural setting. Next time, I’d like to visit during the colder season. Thank you very much for everything.

This Business Hotel offers covered parking for motorcycles. The location is excellent—Seibu-Chichibu Station is truly just a short walk away, and you can also walk to JR Chichibu Station. The breakfast buffet staff were very kind, which was great. This time, I stayed here while touring Chichibu by motorcycle for the pilgrimage and to see the Kawase Festival, and thanks to that I had a wonderful trip.

Located in the heart of a retro streetscape shopping arcade. After checking in at the main building, you walk for a short while and unlock the security yourself to enter this annex. The interior was surprisingly spacious, and having the bath and toilet separate made it very comfortable. Both Rooms were clean, and it felt so comfortable you wouldn’t think it had been renovated. Check-out was also easy, so we could head out into town early in the morning. Chichibu Shrine is also very close by, making it an ideal location for sightseeing. The main building is great as well, but this annex is highly recommended too.

Although it’s a bit far from the station, the surrounding area is residential, so it’s very quiet. The Room was even more spacious than it looked in the photos, and having a balcony made it very comfortable. Some Reviews mention that the bathroom is small, and it is indeed smaller than in a typical Business Hotel. However, I’m not very tall, so it didn’t bother me. Rather, I liked that the toilet and bath are separate, so it felt like using them at home. At check-in, I asked a few questions such as whether my luggage could be stored after check-in, and the front desk staff answered everything politely, which left a good impression. Overall, this is a Hotel with high satisfaction, and if I stay in Chichibu again next time, I would like to use it.

This was my first stay. The views of the Chichibu townscape from both the Room and the dining area were wonderful. In the main building, Rooms on the 2nd floor have a roof below that reduces the sense of openness, so I recommend choosing the 3rd or 4th floor if you stay in the main building. For dinner, I had a Japanese-Western kaiseki-style course; since the price difference is minimal, I personally preferred it over the buffet. Overall, it’s a Hotel with great value for money.

One night, two days, for one person. I was picked up from Yokoze Station by the Shuttle Service on a rainy evening. With a typhoon forecast (it turned out to be just normal rain), the Accommodation was quiet. I headed straight to the bath, and from the open-air bath the trees felt close; the gentle sound of rain was beautiful. It was a wonderful soak surrounded by nature. At dinner, I enjoyed warm sake along with beautifully prepared appetizers and warm river fish dishes. The carrot tofu and sobagaki tempura were unlike anything I’d had before—truly delicious. The vegetable tempura and wild boar were also outstanding. I was completely full after the mountain-vegetable mixed rice and handmade udon, and then dessert left me even more satisfied. Even so, I ordered late-night snacks in my Room—miso potatoes, grilled rice balls, and fruit liqueur. Strangely enough, despite being so full, I woke up hungry in the morning. Another rainy open-air bath before breakfast made it an amazing one-night stay. Thank you very much. If possible, it would be even better if non-smoking Rooms were available for solo guests as well—I wouldn’t mind paying an additional fee. Everyone at the Accommodation was very kind; thank you for such a wonderful time.

The room was beautifully renovated, preserving the charm of a traditional old house while adding modern comforts.

When traveling for business, I usually stay at a Business Hotel, but this time I chose a Ryokan. The environment was more than sufficient for solo business use, with a relaxing bath and room atmosphere. What surprised me the most was the breakfast—it exceeded my expectations and left me completely satisfied. Everything I ate was delightful, and it made me feel like I stayed at an excellent Accommodation after a long time. Since it’s not a large Ryokan, I highly recommend it to those who want to spend their time quietly. If there’s one thing to note, it would be that the TV could be slightly larger... I’ll definitely visit again if I have another chance to go to Chichibu!

I stayed in early March. The Accommodation had a wonderful atmosphere, and the Room was very lovely. Amenities and services (usage guidance, drinks, breakfast, etc.) were well provided, so I didn’t need to bring much luggage. The walls were thin and I could hear things like sneezing from the floor above (it was very windy and the pollen was intense), but I had read the notes at the time of Reservation, so it didn’t bother me. However, because the walls and windows are thin, I personally felt quite cold. Blankets were available at the Accommodation, but if you are sensitive to cold, it may be best to dress warmly. The location is also convenient—close to Seibu-Chichibu Station and Ohanabatake Station—and you can enjoy street food along Banya Street, so I recommend staying here if you plan to explore the area. I would like to stay again if I have another opportunity.

Thank you for your hospitality. I stayed for one night because I was drawn by the promise of “delicious food.” With meat, fish, and vegetables, it wasn’t flashy, but I was very satisfied with the simple flavors and generous portions! Since it was a Room with an open-air bath, I could soak anytime—I ended up going in four times. It was a shame the stars weren’t very visible. It would be amazing to watch the stars from a warm open-air bath on a cold winter day. I’d like to stay again.

The place was very spacious, and the kids could relax and play freely. It’s an older house, but it was thoroughly cleaned—everything was spotless, comfortable, and pleasant. The amenities were well stocked, and I was surprised they even had phone chargers. There were lots of board games, which the kids absolutely loved. Because it’s a large house, it felt chilly in the mornings and evenings, but a fan heater was provided so we had no trouble. The kitchen had everything from cooking utensils to tableware, and we could use the drum-style washing machine as much as we wanted (detergent provided). It was an Accommodation with truly thoughtful touches throughout. We’d love to stay again.

We visited to see the moss phlox at Hitsujiyama Park. The Accommodation offered a free stargazing tour, and we had a wonderful time. Every staff member was truly hospitable. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

After a quick check-in, I was able to enter the Room smoothly. The Room and shared areas were clean, so I felt comfortable and at ease. The shared space had card games and playing cards available to borrow, and I enjoyed playing with friends. There were three shower rooms, so I didn’t have to wait, which was great. I’m glad I could stay comfortably at an affordable price.

I stayed during the May holiday period. There were many day-use bath visitors, so it was crowded and I couldn’t relax. It would have been better if I could have used the baths at night and in the morning.
