All the dishes were carefully prepared and very delicious. The rice was smooth and smooth. I'm picky about rice, but it's really delicious. The room looks a bit like a love hotel, which is a bit disappointing. The sofa was so small that it could barely accommodate two adults. When I tried to wipe up the water I spilled on the floor with a towel, the towel turned brown, so I hope they clean it properly. It said that you could order alcohol from your room until 9:00 pm, but at 8:45 pm there was no one there, so I was told that they could only serve bottled beer or sake. If they were giving a time, I wish they would have given the time properly. I was surprised that the washing area in the room was so small, but I guess it can't be helped. Only one adult can enter. The quality of the spring water was not listed, so I don't know, but it smelled like sulfur. Is it lukewarm? I felt that way, but once I soaked in the hot water, it was just right and I felt like my body warmed up quickly and lasted for a long time. Thank you.

My husband and I stayed with our one-year-old son at Sakuratenjo for one night.I wanted to soak in a hot spring slowly without worrying about time, so I searched for a private room with an open-air bath and ended up here.There were no meals for infants, but they could warm up retort baby food in the microwave.The hot springs are smooth and pleasant, and the temperature can be adjusted, so even people who don't like being too hot can take a bath.It seemed like there was hot spring water in the shower and washroom as well.The food was also delicious.The vending machine has free canned juice that you can get by simply pressing a button.There were Haagen-Dazs for the number of adults in the room.There were cup noodles and chicken ramen in the room if you were hungry.Only drinks were available, but room service was also available, including a 12 year old Macallan, which my husband happily drank.I want to stay here again.

When I requested accommodation on the same day, the waitress who answered the phone was extremely responsive and very nice.I called around 4pm, and the food was delicious and the room was spacious with an open-air bath. I don't know about the other rooms, but it would be nice to have an indoor bath.Of course the hot water is from Hirayama Onsen, so it's the best!Even at Hirayama Onsen, this inn is on the river front side, so the water is often slippery.I think the wait staff at the hotel felt at home and were very responsive.This Uedaya is recommended!I want to go again with my family! thank you for helping me.

On January 14, 2024, my husband and I stayed in Choo's room. Although it was a same-day reservation, I received breakfast and dinner included.The open-air bath is wide and open! The water is so simmering that your skin feels soft even after you get out of the bath.The room also has a water server and a Haagen-Dazs refrigerator, which is a nice service.The evening meal was kaiseki, and each dish was very elaborate and colorful, and everything I ate was delicious. I can't say enough about the volume. The breakfast had a lot of variety and was delicious, just like the dinner. In particular, the miso soup with clams is highly praised. The clams are big and plumpIt was served in a large pot with a stove, so I was able to eat the second bowl piping hot, which was great.The morning and evening desserts are also very elaborate and are sure to please people of all ages.The head chef, Osamu Kawamoto, is the best!It was delicious! I will definitely use them again.We would like to thank the landlady and all the staff for their courteous and kind response. I booked this hotel on a whim, but I never expected it to be such a good trip.It was a very good trip.thank you very much.
