The service, facilities and location are great.Check-in at 13:00 and check-out at 11:00 is very ideal.We were blessed with clear skies both on the day we went and the next day, so we were able to fully enjoy the facilities within the vast grounds.It would be nice if the shops had more taste and sophistication. As it stands now, it's an unappealing image.The one step up in the lobby is dark, so we need to find a way to make people want to spend time there on rainy days.The important dinner was delicious, but the quantity was too small.The appetizer is about twice as large, and the amount is so small that only two bowls are needed.Other than that, I thought it would be a good amount if I increased the amount by a couple more.My partner said that he was still hungry no matter how much he ate, and I agree with him.It's tough for men and foreigners.There was a late-night snack in the room, but I thought it would be better to increase the amount of dinner.You don't want to fill your stomach with a late night snack.I was so hungry that the breakfast was not very large. I thought this would be enough for breakfast if I had enough for dinner.Normally I would not be able to eat lunch, but I was glad that I was able to eat lunch normally.I would like to visit again next time, but this time I will eat more before dinner.I would like to go there again to relax.Compared to other high-end inns, I would like to have something better to eat.And make your breakfast more hearty.Our favorite high-end inn is cheaper than here, and everything including the food is amazing, so I would like to learn more about cooking.Anyway, as I've said many times, the food is disappointing.

My favorite inn in Gunma. The architecture and garden blend in with the foot of the magnificent Mt. Tanigawa. Also great food and hospitality. As expected from Relais & Châteaux.This photo was taken during our second stay.

A ryokan in the middle of the mountains and very integrated with nature. We went in summer and the entire landscape was green and very beautiful.They have very beautiful and complete hot springs, as well as different outdoor corners to enjoy the landscape and harmony with the environment.The restaurant is also a great attraction, since they serve very complete breakfast and dinner and authentic Japanese food.The rooms have a bathtub and private bliss, as well as a kitchen and a living room. They turn this into a sleeping room by putting some mattresses on the floor.

I went there 3 times in the past.There was a rest area in the annex and the atmosphere was relaxing.However, I can see that the landlady is a tengu.When I said that this was a nice inn, I laughed out loud.He is very friendly towards celebrities and the upper class, and doesn't pay attention to ordinary people.He has an unfamiliar face.During the hot spring bath, the chairs and tub were so slimy that it felt disgusting.

I went in September.It was cool, the bath in the room was large and modern, and the hot spring water was very nice.At that time, bell bugs were placed in a cage in the hallway, and their cries echoed through the glass-walled hallway.Meals are served in a private room, but it wasn't that memorable, but it was enough.It was located on a luxuriously large land and had a great atmosphere.Also, when I told them that it was chilly at night, they immediately prepared a heating device.I also enjoyed the service, which didn't make any requests too complicated.Thank you.I am recommending this to a friend who has the opportunity to travel.The only drawback was that it was far from the city.
