It's about a 10 minute walk to the entrance (visitor center) of Goshikinuma. There are fireflies in the nearby waterhole. The room was clean and the bedding was fluffy. The rice was also delicious.I used it a few times before the coronavirus pandemic, and it seems like it's still in business, which is great. The guest rooms are on the second floor. Since I have to go up and down the stairs, I cannot use it with my mother (89 years old) at the moment. This is the same for other pensions.Maybe next time I'll go stay alone. The price is for two people, but since you can eat two people's worth of rice, isn't that good? .

This is a well-located pension with Goshikinuma and Mt. Bandai in the background. The lobby is open and has a spacious staircase. The owner and his wife were friendly, very kind, attentive, and made us feel comfortable. The meals were quite substantial for a pension that costs about 10,000 yen. Above all, the restaurant was built in a protruding area and was surrounded by the nature of Urabandai, giving it a nice atmosphere and allowing us to thoroughly enjoy our meal. The bath was a relaxing rock bath with natural hot spring water, which is rare in pensions. I was a little concerned about the stains on the carpet in the hallways and the damage to the wallpaper, but the hotel had charm that more than made up for it, and I liked it on my first stay, so when I checked out, I asked to make a reservation for next month.

A wonderful pension near Goshikinuma✨The room has two single beds and a TV.There is a clean toilet and sink right outside the room, so there is no inconvenience.Both dinner and breakfast are homemade Western food and delicious!Especially the steak for dinner and the bread for breakfast were delicious.The bath is a hot spring fed directly from the source♨️It's spacious enough and the quality of the spring water is good, giving it a high score♪It was great to go and cycle around Goshikinuma during the autumn leaves season.

You can see lots of mountain wild birds from your room window!Dinner is an elegant French full course, and breakfast bread is delicious!The heated hot spring baths for men and women in the rock bath are also the best.

The dinner course meal was very delicious. It was a full-course meal that included soup, salad, fish dishes, meat dishes, and dessert, but all of them were delicious and I thought it was at the level of a popular restaurant.The breakfast was delicious with freshly baked bread.The pension has a Western-style but warm atmosphere and is very comfortable.The bath is a hot spring.The entire pension is Western-style, and there are many Western-style guest rooms, but I chose a Japanese-style room. Comfortable and large Japanese-style room. It smelled like tatami, so I think the tatami have been changed frequently.

A place where you can go to find yourself in silence. Hot springs make your skin smooth. During breakfast, a ladybug landed on the window sill next door. It's still snowing outside, and it's winter.The clock moves slowly.

I visited my father on October 31st. Although it was a private stay, the natural hot springs were amazing and made my body feel warm, and the course dinner was very delicious. My father asked me to take him again, so I would like to go again next year.Just the other day, on the 19th, I stayed with my wife and took care of her. Thank you for your help twice in one month. I will be looking forward to working with you again if I have a chance. Thank you very much.

Although it is a simple pension, the food is very delicious. Tama's Western food is also good. The view of the autumn leaves from the window and Mt. Bandai in the background was beautiful and relaxing.

When I checked to see if there was a refrigerator in the room, they said there wasn't, but they kept it in the back for me. The owner was kind and courteous. thank you very much!And to top it off, the food was very delicious!If it was close, I would like to go there just for dinner.If I have a chance to go to Fukushima again, I will definitely use it again.

The perfect location for walking around the Goshikinuma nature trail. As others have said, the inside of the hotel is clean and good value for money. The most enjoyable experience for me was when, after finishing a delicious dinner, I consulted with him about the next day's walking plan, and he kindly agreed to give me some advice, and even though it was early in the morning, I was given a ride to and from Urabandai Kogen Station. Thanks to this, I was able to enjoy a refreshing morning walk through Goshikinuma, return to the pension, sweat in the hot springs, and have breakfast, which was a luxurious experience. I will be visiting again in a different season. thank you very much.

Stayed here in June 2022.Toilets and baths are shared. It was a simple pension with no refrigerator in the room, so at first I had the impression that I had gotten away with it. (Sorry)However, the 100% source hot springs feel nice on the skin, and above all, the food is delicious.Dinner was a course meal with each item carefully prepared, and the bread that was served for breakfast was of such quality that I would have bought it to take home if it were on sale.The accommodation cost was just over 10,000 yen per person, but it was around the time when the prefectural resident discount was being offered, so after discounts and coupons, it was only 3,000 yen, which was way too expensive.Considering the quality of the food, this is an inn I would stay at again even when there are no discounts like this.Goshikinuma is nearby, so it's a good idea to wake up early in the morning and go for a walk.The owner is also very friendly, and I would definitely like to stay here again in a different season.

The hot spring is a calcium-sodium-chloride spring with a pH of 8.9, and is fed directly by water. When you enter, your skin repels the water. I think the hot water is good for the skin, as it probably coats the skin. There is a limit of 3 or 4 people in the bath, but we recommend taking a short time when no one else is around. You can enter until 11:00 at night and from 5:00 in the morning. It will feel warm after taking a bath. The meal is a Western course meal, which may not be enough for young people, but for middle-aged people, it's just right for a glass of wine. The breakfast bread is homemade danish, fluffy and very delicious. The coffee was also very delicious and I ordered a second helping. The inside of the building is clean, spacious, and a very relaxing pension. The location is good as you can walk to Goshikinuma early in the morning. Prices are also reasonable. This is a pension that I would definitely like to visit again.

The food was good.There are no crowds of people gathering in the lobby or common spaces, so après-ski is recommended for those who want to stay indoors.I wish the changing rooms, toilets, and lobby were a little warmer, but it was so cold overall that I didn't feel like leaving the room.
