I stayed there in early August. Perhaps due to the small number of rooms, it was very quiet and I was able to relax. In addition, the staff members served customers at just the right distance, so I was able to spend my time comfortably without having to worry. The food is colorful and each dish is stylish. And delicious. There's nothing to say. There are two baths, a rock bath and a cypress bath, but the men's and women's baths change daily. I took a bath at night and in the morning and enjoyed both. It's not that big, but since I was at a different time with other guests, I was lucky to be able to use it completely privately. What's more, across the road is the day-trip hot spring called Chosei-no-Yu, which you can use at no additional charge if you stay at Chosei-an.

I checked in at the end of July 2024. I stayed in the Shirahama area for three nights and stayed in three different hot spring hotels. Jangshengan was the one that impressed our family the most and had the best experience. There are not many rooms in this hotel, and the service manpower is also very streamlined. However, from the moment we arrived and checked in, we constantly felt the attentive and exquisite service and ingenuity. The dinner was even more amazing. Luxurious ingredients are not the main focus of Jangshengan. We experienced I've been to many hot spring hotel kaiseki restaurants, and many of the appetizers that looked bright and eye-catching actually tasted ordinary or even difficult to eat. However, the appetizer platter for dinner at Chosei-an was the first time I finished all of it. The quality of the hot springs and the maintenance of the bathing grounds are very good. If I have the opportunity to come to Shirahama again, I will visit again without thinking.

It's right in front of Kogaura bus stop. It was a small inn, and the hospitality of the staff was heartwarming. All the dishes were delicious and I was full. The separate bath was also excellent in terms of spring quality and atmosphere. It is not an inn where many guests stay at once, so it is perfect for a quiet and relaxing stay.

Although it is an old inn, it is well-maintained and has a nice atmosphere.Although the food is quite large, each dish has a delicate flavor that makes you feel satisfied.I felt a little lonely, as the people who took care of me had retired.

I used it for my child's birthday.Special room OsmanthusThe size of the room is perfect for families with childrenMoreover, the room was separated from other rooms so I felt safe even if my child cried at night.Best of all is the open-air bath attached to the room.You can put it in anytime and your kids will appreciate it....It was my first time using this restaurant, but the food was delicious and relaxing, and my wife and I said we would definitely come back here again.I would be happy to introduce you to those around you.I am very happy to receive your requests and various services!

The food is great! ! All d(￣ ￣)It was a dish that touched my heart.It's restaurant level!Breakfast is also fulfilling,As expected, dried fish is a specialty of Wakayama!It was fluffy and delicious.And the Nakai-san who was in charge of it was a wonderful person.My one and a half year old grandson accompanied me and caused a lot of trouble to the waiter during the meal.I am grateful to you for responding without making me look uncomfortable.It's not something that can be done easily.He is a very kind and excellent Nakai.The whole family was grateful.To achieve that level in another country,My heart warms as I realize that he must have gone through great hardships.After checking out, I went to Adventure World, but it was raining heavily😭However, I had a pleasant time at Chosei-an, so I decided to give it a try! Let's say ♪This is an inn that you will want to visit again.Thank you very much ^ ^
