I visited on a weekday in October, just before the autumn leaves. The inside of the building was relatively empty, and we were able to use the large communal bath almost exclusively. All the employees were very kind and I had a comfortable stay. The food was described as New Japanese cuisine, and although I had never tried it before, the quality of the food was very high, and everything from appetizers to desserts was delicious.Alcohol can be ordered as a mariage plan, a select plan, or as a single item, but if you don't like alcohol, we recommend ordering a select or single item.I stayed in a room on the second floor without an open-air bath, but at night you can enjoy the beautiful view of the illuminated garden.The bed in the room was soft and fluffy, perfect for relaxing from the fatigue of the trip.The refrigerator is stocked with water, tea, and canned beer, all of which are available free of charge.The hot springs are fed directly from the source with added water, so they don't have the chlorine smell of hot springs that are circulated and disinfected, and the slightly alkaline nature of the hot springs leaves your skin feeling smooth after bathing.Personally, I was happy that the shower had a large amount of hot water, so I was able to take a comfortable shower.Face towels, bath towels, pots of cold water, and other amenities are provided in the changing room of the public bath, and all you need to do is bring a change of clothes such as underwear from your room. There was no limit to the number of towels used.There was a drink bar just outside the public bath, so I was very happy to be able to enjoy drinks freely.This is an inn where you can be very satisfied with everything from the customer service, rooms, meals, and hot springs.I would like to visit you again.

The food is pleasing to the eye and serves delicious food little by little, but for some reason the sashimi doesn't taste very good. The open-air bath is nice, but unfortunately there was a smell of cigarettes coming from the room next door. The temperature of a private bath is the same, but you can enjoy the difference between the indoor bath and the bathtub. Enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring and the autumn leaves in autumn.

I used it during my late summer vacation. This was my third visit, and it had been quite a while since the last time. However, the date is close to the previous date, and the last time was a birthday plan. This time I made a normal reservation, but thanks to the hotel's clever arrangement, I received a birthday plate as a surprise. I was really surprised. I was happy.The baths and rooms are nice, but above all, the food is the best. Everything was delicious. The beauty of the utensils and the beauty of the food is also captivating. This is a recommended inn.

I was really impressed by how delicious all the food was! I think it's worth going just to try this dish. At night, the reflection of the garden in the pond was so beautiful that I could stare at it forever.The baths were wonderful, especially the private baths♨️I definitely want to go again!

I thoroughly enjoyed all three reservation-only private baths.I booked a retro room and was very satisfied with the atmosphere.The food was very delicious, and the person I went with had a birthday, so I was grateful that they prepared a plate for me.The parking lot is along the road, but it is large enough to be easily parked, and as soon as you park, someone from the inn will come to carry your luggage.I would like to go again if I have a chance.

There's nothing around. Anyway, a trip to enjoy the accommodation.I think people who like hot springs might like them because they don't have a slimy feel.Are the meals distinctive? However, I thought it was delicious.This is a relaxing inn.
