Kinasanoyu Hotel&Cottage

The location is quite difficult to reach by public transportation. We visited by rental car, but the winding mountain roads made me carsick (I’m prone to motion sickness). Even so, it was an Accommodation that I’m glad we chose. Dinner came with many small side dishes—perfect as snacks with drinks. The complimentary tempura was delicious, too. Alcohol was inexpensive; I believe a medium draft beer was around 500 yen. The portions were generous, and it felt very fair to find alcohol priced this reasonably at an Accommodation these days. The Room was spacious and relaxing. The bath has neither a sauna nor an open-air bath, so it’s not really a place you can soak for a long time (you may get bored). The staff were kind and pleasant, and I’d like to visit again if I have the chance.

Nestled in a quiet mountain setting, we were able to relax at a leisurely pace surrounded by nature. The soothing hot spring water felt wonderful on the skin, and the breakfast we requested to add at check-in was simple yet very delicious. The room was clean and calming, making for a truly refreshing stay both physically and mentally.
