Oarai Onsen is the best! Convenient and close to the golf course. It was a stay-only plan. Next time I would like to ask for breakfast included!

I came here for the first time after searching online, and the service was excellent. Although the building is not new, it is well kept, they allowed us to change the breakfast time, and the location is convenient as it is close to the Oarai Aquarium and the market. I'll come back later.

A wonderful inn that you will definitely stay in when you come to Oarai.A bath that you can take freely until morning.Pleasant response.Comes with a drink bar.It takes about 5 minutes by car to Oarai Isosaki Shrine.There's also a washing machine, so it's the perfect place to stay between trips.thank you very much!

I used it for the first time.This is an inn that cannot be found even if you search on Rakuten Travel etc.The edge of Oarai. This is a ryokan located near Kaimon Bridge.The toilet is shared, but it's a washlet and it's clean, so there's no problem at all.The bath is like a hot spring and is a little slippery. The large public bath feels nice.There is a drink bar next to the bathroom, which guests can use free of charge.With the recent rise in business hotel rates, I think 5,500 yen for a room without meals on weekdays and 7,500 yen on Saturdays is a pretty unbeatable price.I would like to use this place again.

I visited by car. The parking lot is right in front. The facility was clean, the rooms were comfortable, and all the usual amenities were available.The bathroom is not special, but since it is a hot spring, I am very satisfied. The other guests left without taking a long bath, so I guess there weren't many people looking for the hot springs.I was a little worried that the walls were thin, but the guests were able to maintain their civility and I was able to rest without any problems.

I visited you on a pilgrimage to the Garupan sacred place.You can enjoy reading manga and watching Blu-ray in the Garupan room! ! The inside of the hotel is clean, there is Wi-Fi, and there is a refrigerator in the room. The bathroom is clean and spacious, and there are plenty of towels available. Moreover,I was surprised that there was even a drink bar ///I didn't use it this time as I was only staying for one night, but I think it would be very convenient for long-term stays as there is also a washer/dryer. It was a very satisfying stay, with so much attention to detail and a reasonable price!

I stayed here during my trip to Oarai.Access was a problem, but other than that I was very satisfied.The guest room was a beautiful Japanese-style room with 8 tatami mats.There is a refrigerator, a TV, and hot spring facilities that allow you to take a bath even late at night.The spring quality is also good.There is a drink bar in the hot spring bath where you can drink as much as you like.It was well-cleaned, had plenty of amenities, and had a high level of livability.It was also an accommodation I wanted to stay at.
