Great accommodation experience. Yamagata beef is delicious. It takes about 5 minutes to walk to Ginzan Street.Although I went there in the summer, the streets of Yinshan are really beautiful, especially when the lights are turned on at night.If I have a chance, I’ll go see the snowy Yinshan Mountain again in winter.

It has become a bit of a tourist destination, and the prices are generally too high. I hope the hot spring village has a good atmosphere.

I wanted to go to Ginzan Onsen, so I visited Ginzanso, an inn in Senkyo.I was surprised that draft beer was free as a welcome drink *\(^o^)/*After I checked in, I brought a beer to my room and drank it while looking outside.After that, it's the main hot spring scenic spot, which is extremely popular with many people from overseas on SNS.Turn around and go to the innSurprisingly, you can drink as much alcohol as you like at dinner*\(^o^)/*The food was delicious and the soup was so delicious that I thought it was Yamagata soup.

Available in August. Thank you for taking care of my daughter and I. The room was a Japanese style room on the top floor. The rooms were a good size and the location was great because you could only see the mountains and river, but you could feel the nature. I think all rooms are probably similar in location. The person at the front desk said that bears sometimes appear, so my daughter was looking outside without getting bored.After much deliberation about meal plans, I decided on the Shirogane Shokudo plan, and I was very satisfied. Each person comes with a meal ticket of 5,500 yen, so I was able to eat quite a bit and even order two take-out items. We started eating when it got dark and took a walk on the way home, enjoying the night view of Ginzan Onsen. It was great.I took a bath at the inn three times, and perhaps because the timing was good, all three times it was reserved for one person. On one of those occasions, I took advantage of the optional late checkout and arrived an hour before checkout after taking a walk in the morning. Late check-out is recommended.The bath is a good size and the location from the open-air bath is almost the same as the guest room. I felt very good because there were no man-made objects other than the mountain in front of me and the river below. The only downside is that there are a lot of insects in the bath. I was bitten by horseflies in several places, and the swelling and itching didn't go away for about a week. However, I think this can't be helped because Ginzan Onsen is located in the mountains. I was attacked while walking around the hot spring town, so I think the open-air baths at all inns are in a similar situation. People who are easily bitten by mosquitoes should be careful. Inns often prepare cream for people who have been bitten by horseflies.A pleasant surprise at this inn was that soft drinks and beer were free! I think it was low-malt beer, and it was in the lobby right after leaving the bathroom, which was great!Overall, it was a very good and satisfying stay, but even with the negative aspects of the insects, it was a very satisfying stay and trip. I would like to use it again if I have a chance.
