It was a dog-friendly accommodation. There is a play space inside the building, which is helpful even if it rains. It was nice to be able to soak in the hot springs as well.

Right next to Kanetsu Minakami Interchange. A pet-friendly hot spring inn. The parking lot is right in front. You can feel safe even if your dog gets on the bed or futon in the room. Of course, you can bring your own meals as well. There is a large indoor pet room. By the way, there are plenty of smoking rooms for smokers.The environment for walking is quite good, with parks, dog runs, and the headwaters of the Tone River just a few minutes walk away. I also appreciate the check out time of 11am. The guide map is also easy to understand.I would like a smaller meal plan as the meals are too plentiful. .The exterior of the building is showing its age, but the interior is clean and spacious. This hot spring inn has been in business for over 90 years and has been accepting pets for a quarter of a century, so they were very understanding and responsive to bringing pets. The half-board accommodation fee is quite expensive, but it is as fulfilling as a wanpara.

It is recommended for guests who are traveling with 🐕. (2015)However, when I went there this summer (2023) (about the 20th time), the food, service, and bath were lukewarm, and the lodging fee for the dog🐶 was too high, so I got zero compliments, and I won't be visiting again.

A simple pet accommodation where you can feel at home♪just,The buildings and facilities are quite old and it is a hot spring town.Tomodomo!? You can travel back in time to the Showa era (lol) If you are going to a pet hotel in Izu or Hakone,You might be a little surprised...The characteristics are:Outside the building (next to the entrance)There is an “open-air bath exclusively for dogs”.Available anytime during your stay♪There is a private open-air (barrel?) bath on the rooftop for a fee. *Unfortunately, the rooftop open-air bath seems to have been discontinued (lol)This is a bathtub for dogs with hot spring water,You can also bring your dog in.can. It is absolutely prohibited to use it for human use! Although it is a little far away,You can see the rooms of nearby hotels,Women may be a little concerned...You can also sleep on the futon together.However, if you don't have confidence that you won't be rude,Let's stop (gauge rental available)!There is a wonderful dog toilet space next to the inn.Dog meals can be accepted at check-in, butIt is best to inquire in advance.You can eat together at the restaurant♪As mentioned in other people's reviews,It's a shame that there are some parts that smell like pets...It's close to Kanetsu Expressway Minakami Interchange,Accessible by Joetsu Shinkansen, Jomo Kogen Station or Minakami Station - Kanetsu Bus♪However, for cars in winter,Studless or chain required!There is quite a slope in front of the inn (Minakami Interchange side),If you are unsure, please inquire before departing!
