The quality of the hot springs, the room, and the service were all good. My family of three was very satisfied. I look forward to hearing from you again.

Although the bath was reserved for private use and there was a 40 minute time limit, it was a special experience. There are also regular baths, including an indoor bath and an open-air bath. It seems like it was recently updated and it was beautiful.The food was also delicious. Personally, I thought the hot spring eggs I had for breakfast were quite delicious.

It was my first time visiting Okushiobara. As you approach the hotel, you can smell the faint scent of sulfur, making you feel like you've arrived at a hot spring. As the name suggests, it stands among the trees on the plateau and has a very atmospheric atmosphere. It looks a bit dated, but it's clean and the employees are foreigners, but I get the impression that they're studying Japanese. The public bath is being renovated and we would like to thank the people working on it in the hot weather. One of the attractions of this event is that you can use four private baths for free instead. The scent of sulfur and the cloudy water are what I love about hot springs. The food was not served at a buffet in the morning or evening, but instead was served individually, beautifully presented, and delicious-looking, with a little effort put into making it delicious. The homemade tofu, homemade hot egg, and salmon fillet for breakfast had all the bones properly removed and were all so delicious that I finished 4 bowls of rice. After the meal, I took a fourth private bath and was able to conquer all the private baths. The public bath is said to open in August, but since there were autumn leaves growing from the window of the room, I'm sure I'll visit again in the fall.

Baths are the best because the hot water is good. When I actually stayed there, the price and service were very good.The reason for the strong disparity in reviews may be due to the large number of ⭐️s (1-2) from day-trippers who only use the baths.Therefore, day trip bathing services will most likely be discontinued in the future. It's a miscellaneous feeling.
