The plan I used was for small portions, but the amount of food was so large that I wanted to ask, "Where is the small amount?"The taste was delicious and I had no leftovers.I was very satisfied with the breakfast.To be honest, the inside of the slippers were coming off and it was a little difficult to walk in, but other than that I'm very satisfied.

5 minutes by taxi from Tamana Station or Shin-Tamana Station.Buses are infrequent and inconvenient.A very rare free-flowing radon hot spring.I was told that it would cost ¥300 to reserve a taxi, so I should call them tomorrow.Stayed for one night with dinner and breakfast included.I'm pretty full from dinner. I thought it would be greasy since it was pork belly sukiyaki, but the 🍅 removed it.I had 4 more nights left and I had bought too much and it would be a lot of luggage, so I stuffed the clothes I didn't use into the box the hotel gave me and packed it up.The room is a normal large Japanese room. There weren't enough outlets, so I turned off the sink and air purifier to charge my smartphone.There is hot spring water in the room as well. It's a little salty.2 indoor baths, 2 outdoor baths. Naturally flowing from the source. It was empty and no one was inside, so I had it all to myself. The one near the source of the indoor bath is hot, reaching over 46 degrees Celsius.I managed to get the temperature to 48 degrees Celsius at Kusatsu Onsen, but that's not possible as there are no hot springs here.One more time by 24 hours. I'm planning to go in again tomorrow morning.The men's open-air bath is Ariake no Yu. The women's bath is Shiranui no Yu. It feels good to see a little blue sky. I have it all to myself today.Challenge the hottest indoor bath to over 46℃. I managed to put it in.It seems that there were many people who stayed on plans that included breakfast, and the number of people gathered was comparable to yesterday. Ordinary Japanese food.

It's quiet and the staff are friendly.It seems like an old building, but it's clean.The natural hot spring bath is a bit small. It's clean though.The room didn't have a bed, but it was very clean.I had breakfast twice and it was good except the side dishes were salty.

This is a ryokan with private open-air baths in each room.Secluded and quiet atmosphere.The hot spring water is fresh from the source and has not been watered down. It is supplied cooled to the optimal temperature, making it the best for bathing.The location is far enough from the city center to have a quiet and secluded atmosphere, so it can be satisfactory depending on the purpose, but there are no nearby amenities.The kaiseki was satisfactory, and I recommend ordering additional dishes.You can reserve a private outdoor bath. Can be used for approximately 50 minutes. However, even though I completed the reservation in advance and confirmed it at check-in, I did not receive the key from the front desk when I went to use it at the reservation time. I was only able to receive the key after talking to the guide on the phone. There were no towels provided in the open-air bath and the heating was not turned on in advance, so it felt like it was not ready to receive guests. So why are you accepting reservation requests?
