I went there from 7 years ago to the year before last, and there's a good reason why I stayed here without meals lol.Eating rice by the hearth is the best! The hot springs are also great! The hospitality of the staff is also great!It's a perfect inn. ⊂(ฅ・・ฅ)⊃

Although the inn faces the ski resort, it is a little far from the lift ticket office. For dinner, I was satisfied with the variety of dishes, including skewered rockfish and Yakiniku Shinshu beef. …

Used as a ski resort accommodation.The inn has the scent of the Showa era.It feels old, but I think that's part of the taste.The food could be arranged by hearth cooking, grilled rice balls dipped in miso, or grilled rice balls.The taste is not strong and it is easy to eat.I think the best part of the inn is the abundance of local products such as Shinshu beef, horse sashimi, grilled fish in the hearth, and apple tempura.The bath looks old, but the water is milk green and smells like sulfur. I went there three times during my private stay, and in the morning, unlike at night, the morning sun was shining through the ceiling, creating an indescribably wonderful atmosphere.I'm rooting for you.

I've been visiting you almost every year for about 15 years. The facilities are old and inconvenient, but the food is very satisfying. Horse sashimi, char, Shinshu beef, etc. by the hearth.Unfortunately, Wasabisawa Onsen has disappeared this year, leaving us with only Norikura Onsen.
