Mt. Yotei is right in front of you and the scenery is beautiful! The room is clean, spacious and comfortable!

I think the pricing is reasonable given the rise in hotel prices. The main building was full, but we stayed at "Rokuno Yado" across the street. The room is small, but air conditioned, simple and clean. Within 10 minutes walk to the station and downtown area. There is also a convenience store across the national highway. If meals are included, you will have them at the restaurant in the main building. Dissatisfied with the pillows being too soft and the lack of towels and nowhere to hang them. But overall I'm satisfied.

I went in March 2024. It's about a 10 minute walk from Kutchan Station. The building and rooms are old. The lights in the room are also dark. I can't watch TV while sleeping because the bed and TV aren't in the same position. I think it would be better to have it in a separate building. There is a supermarket nearby.

Although it's a little far from the station and the city center, Gosetsu Udon is extremely delicious.It's basically a hotel, but there's a Gosetsu udon restaurant on the first floor, so it's quite crowded at lunchtime.There is a small souvenir corner in front of the hotel reception, where you can buy goosetsu udon to take home or give as a gift.It was also possible to have a business meal in the room on the second floor.It was also a good place to spend time with important customers.There aren't many places to have dinner in the Kutchan area, so Daiichi Kaikan is recommended.

I had chicken breast udon and mini tempura bowl♪I'm a little disappointed that the Sasame Udon didn't have ice as shown in the photo, but the taste was very delicious♪The paprika tempura in the mini tempura bowl was sweet and delicious♪The price was a little high, but I'd like to go there again if I'm nearby!My companion ate Inaka Udon, and he praised it as well (^^) The pickled plums inside were especially good.

I suddenly had to stay overnight due to work. The room is in an annex, 1 minute walk away. The room is fully equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, and wife, so you can stay without any physical inconvenience. Business hotel. However, perhaps because it is a rural area, the language and customer service attitude of the front desk staff is quite negative. I feel like I'm just doing it out of inertia.

The first hall of a long-established hotel in Kutchan. It is a very convenient hotel with restaurants, banquet halls, and shops.The nearby Morideai is also affiliated with the group. This is also recommended because you can eat delicious bread.This time it's Goisetsu Udon, which is sold at the shop.I've had dried noodles before, but this was my first time having fresh noodles.The transparent and chewy noodles are unique to Gosetsu Udon. It's delicious and has a lot of waist to it.The tsuyu that comes with it is very well made and can be used as a dipping sauce or as a side dish.It's a little thick and has a generous amount, so if you have any leftover, it's a good idea to use it for cooking.I haven't eaten raw ramen. I'm looking forward to eating it now.

Used at check-in and breakfast.When I took my temperature, I finally heard that sound coming from deep inside.The staff.The breakfast card was placed on the carton in a messy manner that had not been collected.He was led to a place with randomly placed side dishes and disappeared into the back while grunting.They didn't even notice me entering the store, and I wasn't cleaning up after them, so the customers who came after me didn't notice me at all and didn't give me any explanation, so I read the atmosphere and ate my breakfast.The same goes for the front desk, but it was basically customer service that involved hospitality...I felt like it was a waste of labor costs because there was a man at breakfast, so I think it would be better to have it all done unmanned or by an AI robot.The cleaning staff were the nicest and greeted me properly.It was a shame because the taste was delicious.

The day I stayed there, it was snowing heavily and my car got stuck in the parking lot. When I called the front desk staff, they couldn't help me and I had to ask another customer to help me. When I returned to the front desk, I was told that they were helping me and that everything was fine. I tried.Owner? It was also shocking that as soon as someone who looked like her boss arrived, she changed her attitude and stopped returning to the front desk.In the end, someone who appeared to be my boss pulled it out with a snowplow, but in the end, it took nearly an hour and a half from the time they arrived to the time I went into the room, and I was exhausted.I didn't want to stay there again.

On the way back from Yoichi Distillery sightseeing, I missed a place to eat, so I was looking for it on Google Maps and this place came up, so I went in just to eat.The staff was very responsive, and the rice was very carefully prepared and had a delicate taste. Honestly, I'm honestly impressed that I can eat food of this quality.
