Day trip hot spring use〇 Large open-air bath, sauna available, private reservations available. The quality of the spring water doesn't change much around here. It's a little higher up, but the view isn't that great.△ The price is high at 1000 yen. Usage time is limited to 2 hours. There are no free water coolers or cups near the changing room or reception area. Hot tea is available at the rest area. It's easy to get dehydrated in hot springs, and I think you can drink water almost anywhere, but it's not available here, which is unfriendly. The lady at the reception is late.If you don't want to rent a private room or take a sauna, I think you should go somewhere else.

The hospitality from beginning to end is wonderful.Everyone was very kind and made me feel comfortable and I have wonderful memories.Both dinner and breakfast were so delicious that I couldn't finish them all.The dining room is also a private room, so I was able to enjoy it slowly.There were kokeshi dolls and kappa ornaments and pictures displayed inside the building, so it was fun to explore them.It was a little difficult to go down the hill from the parking lot to the hotel entrance.Also, if I have a chance to go here, I would definitely like to use it.

I was happy to see the sign with the name and welcome letters in front of the entrance.The room was spacious and calm, and dinner and breakfast were both delicious and relaxing in a private room.We also had tea before breakfast, and thank you for teaching us how to make delicious tea and how to choose a teacup.There were so many things I couldn't write about, such as storing charcoal deodorizers in my shoes, but the pleasant hospitality was wonderful.

The Wi-Fi connection was not very good because the room was on the edge (other rooms were probably fine), but the employees were all very nice people and it was great! The hot water was smooth and very nice!

The place we booked for the night was Ryokan Sanjiro in Togatta Onsen. After descending from the Zao Echo Line towards the Miyagi side from the summit of Mt. Zao, we arrived at Togatta Onsen Village. …
