I've stayed there a couple of times, and there were two insane female guests who sat on the bench in front of the private bath and talked loudly enough to be heard even into the bathtub while waiting for their turn.When I tried to use the washing area in the public bath, there was Since I was using it, there was an old woman who asked me to use another place, which made me uncomfortable. I stayed there thinking it would be a relaxing stay as there were only a few rooms, but I was disappointed to find that there were some unfriendly guests. I feel like Yamafuki has a better customer base.When I tried to ask for a free drink after taking a bath, an older employee asked me if I had taken a bath, which made me uncomfortable. Was it because your hair wasn't wet? It's better to stop judging things based on your own preconceptions...

The cuisine is creative and full of originality. Very satisfied! Alcohol is also delicious. They will tell you what goes well with your meal. Hot water is also good. It's also a residential area, so it may be difficult for elderly people to climb up and down the stairs as there are no elevators. Everything else 💮The staff are attentive. The freshly baked bread you receive as a souvenir on your way home is also delicious.

The information about the accommodation that was left in the room said, ``Please don't expect a view.Instead, we will treat you with food, hot springs, and service.'' ” was written.A tasteful fusion of Japanese and Western elements that gives off a "cool adult" feel throughout.There are 10 guest rooms, so we had a quiet time during our stay.There are 3 private baths where you can fully enjoy the hot spring water.The food is perfectly delicious, so it's a totally satisfying stay.

●I usually go in the winter, but this time I stayed in July. Each person came with a piece of gaze sea urchin.The dishes change depending on the season, so this time I was very satisfied and refreshed.●I stayed here for the first time in 5 years around mid-December.A small inn with 10 rooms, very relaxing.Check in at the lobby, and the entire building has tatami flooring, with flowers, paintings, furniture, indirect lighting, and other soothing spaces here and there.I'm very happy that it's all-inclusive.

Good hot water! Good room! Good food! Staff Mr. Yamazaki and Mr. Agatsuma. He is someone I would like to meet as a relative. All in one. 2 hours of free drinks at dinner 🆓. Cooking and marriage. And this price (about 25,000 yen). There are more expensive inns in Togatta Onsen, but we have been staying here and Bettei Yamafuki for the past 10 years. There is no doubt about it ❗ Please come and try it m(_ _)mAh, Auntie, I’ll be there in the morning and evening (￣ー￣) grinning.This is so delicious that I can't resist it (lol) Seriously.

My husband and I used it last week and were very satisfied.Although it is a small and old hot spring inn with only 10 rooms, it is not an exaggeration and the satisfaction level was the highest ever.The building is old, but the rooms have been renovated and are clean. The free draft beer arrived deliciously.I had 3 beers after the bath, and the staff became my conversation partner and we had a great time.There are 3 private baths and a total of 5 baths for men and women that can be swapped, and since there were not many guests staying, I felt like I could take a bath whenever I wanted.The ingredients for dinner and breakfast were carefully selected and really delicious.Although some portions were buffet style, I think the balance was just right.I don't like buffet style because I can't balance the amount of food I choose, but Mr. Daichu was good.Although it is far away, I would like to use it again.

I have used it several times.Here at Daichu, the rooms and facilities are renovated from old inns, so it can be hot in the summer and cold in the winter. However, the hot springs are murky hot springs that are characteristic of Togatta Onsen (private baths are ) And since the meals are served with seasonal standard dishes, we also visited each season.It seems like the dining room, guest rooms, and toilet facilities have been renovated since the start of the pandemic, so I got the impression that they have become even more beautiful.This time (December 2023) I was looking forward to the Sendai seri hotpot, a seasonal dish, but although the standard wrapped fried dish was available, the seri hotpot disappeared from the menu list, and the menu was similar to the one served at other inns. It had changed toAlso, at breakfast, I no longer compared the rice dishes, and the morning curry had changed from the previous soup-based style to being eaten over rice, and the kuzu-kake that I was looking forward to was replaced with a heavy pork soup, which was disappointing. . .I wasn't dissatisfied with the food itself because it tasted delicious, but I wonder if Daichu's selling point has disappeared because the seasonal staple dishes and dishes that always existed have disappeared. Am I the only one who thought that?I don't know if it's because the manager of the inn has changed or the manager has changed, or if the concept has changed with the times, but as a repeat customer, I feel disappointed. I was in the way, but I ended up visiting thinking that from now on, I might be able to choose another ryokan as an option.

Small inn located in the town. It’s mainly Japanese style but with a few western touches eg beds in tatami room and some fusion food items. …
