The food was delicious and fresh, and the hot springs were very relaxing. The surrounding environment was peaceful, with beautiful scenery. It is truly a highly recommended hot spring hotel.

온천에 대한 낭만을 모두 이룬 곳

버스 도착시간에 맞춰서 픽업도 와주시고 가방도 옮겨주시고 다들 엄청 친절하셨어요! 석식, 조식 신청해서 갔었는데 일본 가정식을 경험할 수 있어서 좋았어요! 일본식이 취향에 맞지 않으신 분들은 마을 도착 전에 도시락 등을 준비해가시는게 좋을 것 같아요. 사워장에도 탕이 있고, 그 뒤에도 여성 전용탕이 있어서 어느시간에도 마음 편하게 사용할 수 있었고, 프라이빗탕도 너무 좋았어요! 혼탕인 곳은 여성전용시간에 사용했는데 3개의 탕 모두 분위기가 다르고 너무 좋았습니다. 혼탕시간이어도 새벽에는 사람이 없는 것 같았어요. 잘 묵고 떠났습니다. 배가 부르지 않다면 바깥쪾에 온센타마고도 도전해보세요

본관 트레디셔널 룸을 2박 연박했습니다. 탕이 많은듯 했으나, 실제로는 거의 같은 탕이라고 봐야될 듯 싶은데, 경관은 정말정말 뛰어납니다. 남성이 이용할 수 있는 노천탕이 거의 모든 시간이 혼욕탕으로 운영되는데, 그 부분에 대해서는 호불호가 있을 수 있을듯 싶습니다. 투숙객이 많았음에도 프라이빗탕을 쓰는데 있어 불편함을 못 느꼈습니다. 친절한 응대가 좋았고, 인원변동으로 인한 환불도 잘 처리해주셔서 너무 감사했습니다.

外国人観光客向け旅館の印象

食事の提供スタイルなどは、外国人観光客向け旅館という感じ。事実お客さんも海外の方が多く、スタッフの方も半分は日本人ではない。その方達は一所懸命に働かれており好感が持てるが、日本の旅館のサービスを期待することはできないかと。 温泉などは申し分なし。

閑静な佇まいで、落ち着いた雰囲気。川側の和洋室を選んだので、川のせせらぎを聞きながら、ゆったり過ごせました。 フロントも食事処の方もとても、明るく親切！お食事は、少しずつ盛られていたのが良かったし、一つ一つの味に丹精込めれていて、とても美味しく頂きました。朝食に、ジャージー牛乳やヨーグルト、コーヒーが付いていたのも嬉しかったし、お味噌汁も美味しかったです。 お掃除も行き届いていて、お風呂も色々あり120%満足です！ ただ残念だったのは、和風ベッドのマットレスが少し硬かったのと、露天風呂を楽しみに行ったのに、大浴場が混浴。女性専用は夜8時〜10時で、明るい時間に入れなかったことです。 またぜひ行きたいので、時間等改善されていることを期待します。 本当にお世話になりました。
