歴史を感じるお宿

歴史あるお宿ですので、年季ははいってます。不便も歴史・ 環境を感じる要素。 1つ改善されるといいと思ったのは浴場の明るさです。滑る等注意書きがされているにも関わらず、かなり近寄らないと読めないほど暗いのはどうかな、と。注意書きが読みやすいものに変わればいいのかもしれないですが。

静かな山の中での憩い

酸ヶ湯、蔦温泉の間に挟まれた温泉。秘湯との触れ込みに惹かれて宿泊。温泉と言い、食事(夕食・朝食)も良く、アルコール類も揃っており満足。 登山客が利用するだけでは勿体無い。 前夜宿泊した何とかの宿より、断然この宿を お勧めします。なお木造なので床が軋んだりする のは承知の上で(注意書きあり、流石)。 布団でなくベッド。 機会があれば(秋の紅葉、新緑)又泊まってみたい。 夜空に星が輝くと見事...らしいが、この晩は残念ながら見ること能わず。

隱蔽在深山裏的日本秘湯, 據說開湯400年, 很難想像住過的屋浸過的泉在400年前已經是這樣, 毫無變動, 來這裏就是享受這傳統的懷舊風韻. 溫泉很好, 浸得相當舒服. 晚餐尤其做得出色, 十幾度菜式廚師都是用心製作. 我誠意推介這酒店.

温泉の風情は素晴らしい。 お食事も美味しかったです。イワナの骨酒も最高でした。 ただ、秘湯だけあって、お部屋はとても古くて狭く、共同トイレ、共同洗面所、携帯もWifiも通じない環境でしたので、家族の女性陣には不評。私はお風呂の湯質と、いかにも青森の自家源泉のムードに大満足でした。 立ち寄り湯と食事の組み合わせがベストかな？

Historic simple hot spring hotel in Towada area

This is a 400 year old hotel in a very remote area. Bathrooms are at the end of the hall, rooms are simple, and you are a bus ride away from the sites of the area of Towada BUT this is a lovely spot with simple hikes and a regular bus to Towada and the Orirase Gourge. Guests need to be aware that there are no restaurants or other hotels in the area, so you must plan carefully and be prepared. The food at this restaurant is very good and fresh, with the fish taken from the stream just outside the building. The onsend itself is very simple but the natural hot spring is so nice for the body and so uncrowned - it was a great experience.
