朝晩の食事がとても美味しくボリュームがあり大変満足です。大きな宿と違い毎食部屋で食べることができるので、とてもリラックスできます。お湯はとっても滑らかで、宿のすぐ脇に重要文化財の薬師堂と、御夢想の湯(入浴料無料)があります。 川のせせらぎと小鳥の囀り、時々遠くに鹿の鳴き声も聞こえました。日々の喧騒から離れてのんびりしたい方にはおすすめです。

식사가 맛있어요

방에 화장실이 없는방이 있어요 당황스러웠지만 공용화장실은 여러개고 편안하게 사용가능해서 괜찮았어요. 너무 친절하시고 정성스럽게 방에 차려주는 저녁과 아침식사는 너무 맛있고좋았어요 작지만 시마의 원탕 바로옆에 있는 료칸이라 물도 깨끗하고 편히사용할수 있어요. 쿠사츠 만자 시마 등 군마온천을 돌면서 갔었던 여러곳 중 시골집에 온 것 같은 색다른 경험이었어요.

夫婦で行くならおすすめ

全体的に〇 食事:朝夕ともに部屋食。高級ではないがおいしく、量も十分 風呂:内風呂は少し古さが目立つが特に問題無。貸し切り露天風呂は露天というには少し寂しい、かつ狭い。家族というより夫婦2人まで。 部屋・寝具:和室の平均的な部屋。年寄りにはベッドとソファの方が楽。 気さくなご主人に大変お世話になりました。 C/Pは最高。また来たいと思う宿でした。

手打ちそばが絶品の隠れ宿

とてもこじんまりとした旅館ですが、主人の丁寧なおもてなしと夕食の手打ちそばが絶品です!周りが温泉街であるわけでもなく、本当に静かなところ。温泉の温度は熱め。脱衣所に扇風機が欲しいと思いました。近くに無料の温泉と足湯もあります。散歩がてらにいいかも。
