Stayed during the holidays in October 2024. All the other accommodations were full. I think a hot spring hotel costing less than 50,000 yen for a family of three is reasonable. Check-in begins at 3:00 pm after one automatic machine.The room is old, but it is clean and has futon beds from the beginning. 2 liters of water in the fridge free of charge. Although some of the staff are foreign nationals, we are working hard with a small number of people. There are a total of 3 baths: an indoor bath and an open-air bath on the upper floor, and an indoor bath on the lower floor.On this day, the open-air bath and the lower floor were the men's bath, and the indoor bath on the upper floor was the women's bath, which was changed at 4am. It's a shame that you can't see the view from the indoor bath at night. There is a sauna in the bath on the lower floor. The meal was a buffet, but the banquet hall was also in use, so there were no foreign groups, so it was quiet and nice. Hot pots, Genghis Khan, and cooked rice that use solid fuel are good. It was definitely better than the demonstration version. And we could drink sake for free. Kamikawa Junmai was delicious.

The location is quite close to the cable car station. It is an old hotel. The equipment can be expected to be old, but the cleanliness is acceptable.The meals are unexpectedly amazing. There are a variety of choices, allowing travelers to cook by themselves, such as kamameshi, Ishikari hot pot, and barbecue.The roast beef is soft and tender, which is also highly praised by the familyAlthough there isn’t a lot of sashimi for the raw food, the freshness of the scallops adds a lot of points.For dessert, ice cream is recommended. If it wasn't written, you wouldn't know it was soy sauce flavored.

The lobby and restaurant are spacious and comfortable. The "Shanchui Hall" dining environment is very good, and the food is diverse and delicious.You can drink all kinds of sake in small cups. I really want to stand there and drink cup after cup before leaving.There are many food utensils and ingredients provided, and DIY is also an alternative experience.There is a coffee machine for coffee, and a juice machine for drinks ~ I actually found a "miso soup" machine. The shortage of manpower in the suburbs is serious, and the era of AI is fast approaching.The most popular thing tonight is the roast beef. It is so tender, juicy and chewy that you are willing to wait in line.The "soy sauce ice cream" is special enough. I was a bit repelled at first, but I also wanted to try a new flavor that I couldn't miss. In fact, it tastes quite delicious with the addition of milk. It tastes salty and sweet, but the soy sauce flavor is very prominent, which subverts the taste. my thinking
