We stayed with two people and one dog, and the circle in the room was a little small for our 10kg dog (the weight limit is 12kg, so there's nothing we can do about it), but we ended up sleeping soundly!Since I was eating in my room, I thought the beer would be bottled beer, but draft beer was also OK! (Thank you for bringing me extra food so many times.) The amount of food was just right, and it was all delicious. And of course the rice is delicious! My morning walk made me hungry, so I had a refill for breakfast.It's a pity that there is no open-air bath, but there are hot baths, warm baths, cold baths, and saunas, so I was able to soothe my tired body from running around with my dog.There is a dog run, and there are also waterfalls in the area, so we recommend taking a walk there as well.Also, there were little happy (four-leafed) flowers blooming in the parking lot, so it's fun to look for happiness.I will stay again.

@Aug.28,2024I used it for the first time in 2 yearsBook the most luxurious kaiseki courseDespite it being a kaiseki meal, it's so hearty that you'll feel like your stomach will burst.I have visited in the summer for three consecutive years until 2022.This summer (2023), we have changed to Suwakoso. We are sorry.Used on 22/7/24Use the top-level “Yukigu Kaiseki” planApparently the head chef has changed, so there are more creative dishes and fewer standard dishes.Excuse me, but the previous head chef Keizo Honda's cooking was more palatable.However, the breakfast was very elaborate and delicious.Even though we had so much trouble last year, this year we were able to easily get a membership discount.My claim was proven correct.21/9/5I wrote the same thing in the Jalan review.It seems that critical posts will be ignored.Not listed in Jalan reviewsI wrote it hereI made a reservation from Jalan.Due to a lack of employee awareness, it was difficult for union members to receive legitimate discounts, leading to disputes.I was told that if I use Jalan coupons and points, I cannot get a member discount.A female employee assured me that the explanation was also listed on the Jalan page, but...The following text is written on Jalan:[Note] When using online payment or GoTo Travel, member discounts cannot be applied. ”The content had nothing to do with Jalan coupons and points.I'm a heavy KKR user, so I don't even pay online.I know everything about how to use coupons and points.All I can say is that if you don't want your Jalan coupons and points to be used, you should not post it on Jalan.Chef Keizo Honda's kaiseki cuisine and hot springs with sauna are great, but they are ruined by the quality of the staff at the front desk.I would like to ask for proper employee training.20/7/25 I stayed here for the first time in 5 years.I was surprised to see so many kaiseki dishes at Yukigu.Free all-you-can-drink draft beer and sake are also great.Use at member priceThe kaiseki meal was delicious.

I visited with my dog. It wasn't a dog-only accommodation, so I didn't have high expectations, but I had a great time. The temperature of the bath was just right, and although I didn't take a bath, there was also a sauna and cold bath. The changing rooms are also clean.The room was a Japanese-style room and was spacious and I was able to relax. As for the food, the white rice is extremely delicious! ️The side dishes were delicious, but if they had sold salt musubi, I would have bought it. There was a rice ball shop in front of the station, so I bought some and ate it, but the white rice I ate there was the best.
