ゆったりとすごせました。

チェックインの際にはソファでお茶を出していただきながらゆったりと丁寧にしていただき気持ちよかったです。帰りが夜遅かったのですが、丁寧に迎えていただきました。お部屋もきれいに掃除されてましたが、やはり古い建物なのか、そこそこカビのにおいがしたりしましたが、お風呂も脱衣場もきれいにされていました。朝食もとてもおいしくいただき、温泉粥、ラジウム卵、芋煮と名物をいただけて、朝からリフレッシュさせていただきました。また利用したいと思います、お世話になりました。

また行きたくなるお宿

時間ができた時にのんびりさせてもらっております。 ボリュームのある食事で大学生の息子が喜んでおりました。 朝食も温泉場にありがちな地味な朝食ではなくて、デザートやジュース、コーヒーがあり大変満足しました。 お風呂も清潔で良いお湯でした。

Schönes Hotel mit heissen Quellen

Es war echt schön, vor allem die heissen Quellen mit ihren 80° waren sehr schön. Wir sind sogar einen Tag länger da geblieben als geplant. Man kann die Stadt Yonezawa sehr entspannt zu Fuß erreichen und man hat genug zum anschauen und fotografieren. Man kann aber auch einfach ein bisschen in der Gegend spazieren gehen ist eine sehr schöne und ruhige Lage. Das Hotel Personal war auch sehr zuvorkommend und sehr freundlich. Das Hotel ist sehr leicht zu erreichen. Einfach beim Bahnhof Yonezawa in den Bus und losfahren. Ich würde da auf jeden Fall gerne wieder hin.
