Norikura Onsen is something I've always wanted to visit.I was finally able to go!The inside of the building is clean, but the building seems a little old.The room is on the 2nd floor, so please be careful if you have difficulty walking.The toilet is shared.There is also a Japanese-style toilet, but is it necessary these days? (lol)We also confirmed that the washlet was malfunctioning.The tap water in the bathroom is cloudy.I had it out for a while, but it kept getting cloudy.That's quite a negative point.There are 4 baths (indoor bath x 2, outdoor bath x 2), which can be reserved for 45 minutes at a time.Make a reservation by pasting a tag on the board with the time written on it.A guest staying overnight who is not there? I'm confused about the time that I have already reserved.Aside from that, I was greeted by the milky white cloudy water I was looking forward to.Although it is acidic with a pH of 3.3, it is easier to soak in compared to Kusatsu Onsen's tingling hot water, which has a pH of around 2.The sulfur scent isn't too strong, so even people who don't like that smell might like it.The food was more voluminous than the price.The freshly grilled rock fish was especially delicious.The breakfast was delicious, but the hoba miso doesn't go well with onions or radish...The sink and toilet are a minus, but the bath, meals, room, customer service, etc. are pretty good.I would like to stay there again if I have a chance.

That's 12,000 yen! ? Great satisfaction!The appearance and construction are completely Showa era. The doors to the rooms have button-type locks, the shared toilet and sink, and the plumbing discolored from the hot spring water... However, with renovations, thorough cleaning, and a variety of other innovations, these outdated features have been completely wiped out. On the contrary, it was a tasteful accommodation that gave me more satisfaction than I expected.I was particularly impressed by the following points:・A stylish dining room with partitions and downlights・Dinner that is visually pleasing with rich ingredients and colors. I was surprised by the matsutake mushroom soup!・A cypress bath full of flavor.・Large room with new tatami mats and wallpaperThe beauty is not only the building, but also the polite and kind staff.If I had to pick a corner of Jubako, it would be the hard and high pillows. I would be very happy if you could prepare something lower.Overall, it provided more value and joy than the price. I will use it again!

Thank you for your help.The place had a great atmosphere and the food and baths were perfect!The tempura was a little heavy, but the rest was delicious!The bath has a 100% hot spring source, so it smelled like sulfur and was the best open-air bath!It was even better with the private rental system!Also, the futon was hard, so if you are particular about it, you might want to bring your own mattress!Still, it was a perfect place!Thank you m(_ _)m

Used on 8/10The building is old, but has been cleaned.There is no toilet in the room, so it is shared, but there are about 6 large rooms for men, including Japanese and Western rooms, and the Western-style room has a washlet and was kept clean considering it was old.All of the baths were reserved for private use (reservations were made with two room name tags on the whiteboard), but they were fully booked, but we were able to take two open-air baths and one indoor bath the next morning.Is it because it's full? It was a nice service that the front desk made a reservation for the open-air bath at the time of our arrival.It is a sulfur spring with 2 open-air baths (1 shower) and 2 indoor baths (3 showers).The temperature is lukewarm, but the white cloudy water is the best.Although the amount of food was small, additional grilled fish and tempura were served later (the tempura wasn't very good), so if you eat slowly, you'll be full. I would like to come again during the winter season.

The food was very delicious.The bath is reserved for private use by the hour, so it's nice to be able to relax and not worry about it.The room was clean, but there was no toilet and it was shared. A washlet was included.There was a mirror in the room, so it's okay if you don't want to put on makeup in the bathroom.The open-air bath was a little lukewarm.

The hot spring had an indoor bath and an open-air bath, and it was nice that they were all reserved for private use.The food was very elaborate and delicious, including tempura and salt-grilled rockfish. The homemade plum sake was also good.This is an inn I would definitely like to visit again if I have the chance.

Visited as a solo traveler.I'm really happy that there's a one-person plan, and you can use the private hot springs as much as you want as long as you don't overlap.Recommended if you want to indulge in hot springs.2 outdoor baths, 2 indoor baths.The open air is large enough that even the whole family can enjoy it, and the view is beautiful and you can relax.There's not much rice, and it's not too little, and the meal progresses (lol)There isn't anything special in the surrounding area, but it's a recommended inn for people who want to relax.

I used it for Golden Week.As everyone's comments have said, the building is old but clean.The food was very delicious and the drinks were reasonably priced.The toilet and washroom are shared, but I knew this in advance so I didn't feel any inconvenience.The way to reserve a bath is also easy to understand and good.Both my wife and I were very satisfied. I would like to use it again.
