Beautiful hotel and fabulous view from the room. Delicious breakfast and dinner buffet. The entire hotel is pretty accessible, I guess, because of the ageing population? Onsen facilities really need some updates as that was what I was most looking forward to but unfortunately. I wonder if the jet spa was designed for disabled guests as you either have to kneel or squat to use it. There’s no sauna in Onsen, which is my thing, and a couple of areas are not in use. I wonder if they used to be sauna or steam room.

Nice buffet dinner and breakfast

It provides a good Japanese hospitality as usual. The buffet breakfast and dinner are good (we shouldn't book them for both nights as we were just too full after the first night). The hotel could invest in renewing some of its facility but it was still a pleasant stay. My only complaint is that the breakfast finishes at 9am which is far too early for European guests.

Hotel sits on lovely grounds, with the mountain ranges as a back drop. Parking is a breeze. The rooms are really basic and the in-room bathroom is tired and not well maintained. Availability of games, grounds makes it more suitable for young families

Fantastic stay at hotel kamenoi with the panoramic view of the mount aso greeting us every morning and star gazing at night. My kids absolutely love the huge grass patch and the myriad of toys, sports equipment like baseball, curve ball and soccer balls to keep them occupied. The outdoor onsen is a must try.

Very pretty area in the mountains; quite a walk from the train station, but there's a shuttle with a very good, kind, and informative driver. Unfortunately there aren't many trains at the station, and the shuttle starts after the first train leaves (the next leaves several hours later). Breakfast was good, dinner was good but the same every night and very very expensive (8000 Y per person for a buffet). Not much in the way of directions to local attractions like the volcano hikes etc. although they do have a book telling you about local attractions (in Japanese; the staff also don't speak English, which isn't an issue really but it would be nice to have written guides in English). A car would be very helpful if you're staying here.
