2024.07Limited to 4 groups per day near Dogo Onsen. The best "hospitality"Personally, if I come to Dogo, I feel most at home here, where the food is top-notchDue to its popularity, reservations are essential.2021.11Even during the coronavirus pandemic, there is a sense of security as the number of groups per day is limited.Personally, I like Dogo as it is the most reliable accommodation facility.As always, the service is top notch and the food is top notch.It is the most relaxing space.The spring cherry blossoms seen from the verandah of the inn are spectacular.It has a history, the building has a lot of atmosphere, and the food and atmosphere are exceptional.The private open-air bath is also unique.The service is also great,Minus 1 star is quite expensive.However, it is a place where you can spend some time.

I was treated with extreme suspicion as to whether they were truly customer-oriented. It became a place where I will have negative memories for the rest of my life.

I visited to celebrate my mother's recovery!It's very easy to access, and once you step inside, you feel like you're in a different space. A very quiet, retro yet wonderful space!The orange juice I received was so rich that it permeated my hot body.All the drinks in the fridge were free, so I drank too much beer and sparkling drinks and got tipsy lol.I took a relaxing dip in the hot springs, the food was very elegant and the drinks went well. We had a wonderful time. thank you. The proprietress' smiling face is very unique and charming.

A hidden Japanese-style inn. Retro and full of luxury. This is a valuable inn where the staff will carry your luggage to your room and lay out your futon. All customers are served by female staff, and the young, cheerful female staff and the elegant and lovely proprietress provide heartfelt hospitality.The baths are an indoor bath and an outdoor bath that looks like an arbor in the garden. It's small, but there aren't many guests so it's enough. You can hear the chirping of birds in the morning from the forest of Dogo Park.The food is divinely delicious. The soup stock was exquisite. The dishes were elaborate and I enjoyed it.
