The staff at the inn greeted me with a smile, guided me to the parking lot, carried my luggage to the lobby, and gave me directions and explanations about the room, all with a smile. I thought I would like to stay there again.

Used on company tripThis is an orthodox inn.The service and the response from the people at the inn were very good.The food was from a banquet menu for a company trip, so I don't know the price or other details, but it was delicious.The open-air bath in the large public bath had just the right amount of hot water, so I ended up taking a long bath.

This is a medium-sized inn located in the deepest part of Kinugawa Onsen.The overall atmosphere is calm.Check in at the spacious lobby and go to your room.The room faced the valley and had a nice view. The size was perfect.We ate our meals in a completely private room without any hesitation. The food was delicious and plentiful.The hot springs were also large considering the number of rooms, so I always had a relaxing time.In particular, the open-air bath was large and nice.All the employees were also very responsive. It was a satisfying stay.

Although it is a famous hot spring area, it is located a little further back, so you can spend a quiet time at this inn. You can see the Kinugawa River from the open-air bath, but you don't have to worry about it even in heavy rain because there is a roof, and the temperature is warm, so it's great to be able to enjoy the high-quality hot water slowly even on hot days! !The food is delicious, especially the salt-grilled sweetfish, which is so delicious that you can eat it all the way down to the bones, so even people who don't like river fish can enjoy it. There is also a free colored yukata service, so I added it to my favorites without any complaints ☆
