Forest Resort Yugawara Manyoso

Before I knew it, I’ve stayed here for a Multiple Night Stay in December, June, and September (lol).Within walking distance from Yugawara Station (Shuttle Service also available).There are also Rooms where smoking is allowed.I use this place casually when I just want to relax and refresh in the Onsen.About the 4-star rating:Regarding the amenity tabi socks, even on a Multiple Night Stay, receiving only one pair per person makes me think, “Huh?” the next day. It might be worth considering providing them for each night of a Multiple Night Stay, or clearly stating that it’s one pair per person.As for meals and the rice tubs (ohitsu), isn’t there food waste? Staff do serve the meals, but I think rice could be handled like tea—self-serve would be fine. This could likely be solved by investing in one or two rice cookers (10-cup capacity): cook with a gas cooker, transfer to warmers, and set them out. Then you could serve an ohitsu only to guests who request it.

There was a wide variety of dishes, and I enjoyed all of them.The beef in particular was tender even when it cooled, and it was delicious without being overly fatty.I was also impressed by the cheerful and courteous service from the international staff.The bath was at just the right temperature.One disappointing point was that the teacup in the Room had a crack, and the drink slowly seeped out.I wasn’t injured, but I would appreciate it if you could check items like that as well.Also, it would be helpful if you could add body lotion to the amenities.This Accommodation is one I would definitely like to stay at again.Thank you very much.
