Nice outdoor areas and onset.

This was our second time staying at the Kowakien Tenyu, and once again it did not disappoint. The main draw for us is the two large hot spring baths which alternate between men and women every other day. One is in a natural setting with a beautiful waterfall and the other is a sleek modern bath with an infinity edge overlooking the mountains. The water is very hot but soothing once you get used to it and minerals in the water is great for arthritis and other aches and pains. The other draw is the fantastic half-board which includes breakfast and dinner. The dinner is a multi course feast for both the eyes and the pallet. This time the breakfast was a buffet which we didn’t like as much as the a la carte offering last time. The rooms are spacious and beautiful with western style beds and tatami mats. They are very clean and well maintained. There’s a bus stop down the hill as well as up the hill. Apparently the hotel provides a free shuttle from Gora station which we didn’t know about in advance. Highly recommend!
