I stayed for one night during a three-day weekend in October.I should have made a reservation earlier, but I was a little late and only the Royal Suite room was available, so I stayed there.It was a bit pricey as it included one night and two meals, but it was the same plan as the hotel in the nearby Yubara Onsen, and I was able to spend a relaxing time in a spacious room, so it was actually a good deal.We checked in around 3:30 pm, enjoyed the hot spring ♨️sauna, relaxed in a room that was too big for two people, and went to dinner.For dinner, you can choose from shabu-shabu, sukiyaki, or steak kaiseki, but there is no choice when making a reservation on an online travel site, and I thought I would have to specify it at check-in on the day, but the reservation plan said that dinner was shabu-shabu. When I told them that I would prefer sukiyaki, they happily changed it.Breakfast is a buffet with a wide selection of Japanese and Western food.I think this is a resort facility from the bubble period, so the facilities are quite old.It has been repaired in some places and there are no inconveniences, but the bathing facilities are on the basement floor and there is no elevator in the two-story building, so you can only get around by stairs.This is not a problem for able-bodied people, but it may be difficult for people with weak legs.The staff were very kind and helpful, and we had a very pleasant time.If I have a chance, I would definitely like to go again.The bathing facilities for boys and girls are quite different in size, but they are swapped in the morning.I couldn't finish the inari sushi that was served at dinner, so I asked if I could take it back to my room, and they happily wrapped it for me.Also, wrap it in bamboo skin and attach chopsticks.I was very impressed with their concern.

I thoroughly enjoyed the sukiyaki dinner.I was surprised at how good the Japanese beef was. You can enjoy hot springs and local beer. On the second day, we enjoyed an outdoor barbecue. Enjoy lots of meat while watching the illuminations ♥ It seems that there is also a tower where you can stay with your dog at the cottage. enjoy natureIn the morning, I caught a stag beetle. The staff were also kind. I want to come again.
