Anyway, hot water is good. It's reasonably priced for a ryokan, and it might be a little different for those who like luxurious ryokan, but it's quiet and good for those who want to enjoy the hot spring itself. There is a river under the window, so you will be surrounded by the sound of the murmuring stream. If you prefer quiet sleep, you may want to bring earplugs. It is said that if you are lucky, you can meet a squirrel.

This is a very quiet inn surrounded by nature. Unfortunately, everything for dinner except sukiyaki was cold.

For dinner, the large hall is divided into individual rooms, allowing you to enjoy your privacy and relax. I upgraded to sukiyaki, but it was just as delicious.The hot springs weren't 100% fed directly from the source, so it wasn't great, but overall it was reasonably priced so I was satisfied.

I used it in late July. There is nothing around the inn. The only cooling equipment is a fan, but the temperature was about 10℃ lower than in Tokyo, so I had no problems. Dinner is like an old-fashioned treat. There is only an indoor bath, but the hot water is good. Breakfast is buffet style and there are not many items, which is disappointing.

This is a hot spring inn located in a quiet location deep in the mountains.The hot springs were gentle on the skin, and the food was satisfying.I won't be driving a private car starting next year, so I'd appreciate it if you could give me a ride.It's not called Ueda Station, so I'd be happy if there was one from Maruko too!

It's deeper in the mountain than I expected, and it's not as steep, but it's about an 8km climb. 5 degrees lower than the lower bound. I was nervous because there were no cars passing by, but at the perfect moment a sign saying "how many kilometers left" appeared.You can take a day trip to the bath at this small inn. 600 yen.There is no open air.
