The owner is so nice, has good English The onsen in the hotel is very good and hot Comfortable rooms and great hospitality, the location is just a few minutes walk from the center

It’s located on a hill so just be aware, but not that difficult

The room was comfortable and service was wonderful. We enjoyed the breakfast in the morning, simple and delicious. You can borrow yukata and woven bamboo bags from the lobby and wear them out into town to visit the different onsens. Close walking distance to the centre of the town. Just to note, the building is up quite a steep road and there are no elevators in the hotel, so if you would struggle walking or going up stairs, this is probably not the place for you. However, if you are able bodied, the walk up is quite relaxing and if you follow the stairs up to the shrine and along the forest area, the cherry blossoms are truly beautiful. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly and we loved the traditional decor and atmosphere. We noticed the kyudo decor but didn't ask until the day we were leaving and found out that the back of building used to be a Kyudo Jo. The private onsen was also very relaxing and the "burning bottom" hotspring was a interesting experience. Would definitely love to visit again! A wonderful place to stay.

Authentic Japan experience. Kind staff and great breakfast

the staff and owner was nice and accommodating

there is no elevator for old people and having a hard time using stairs and the breakfast is not worth the value no choices and can’t ask for an extra rice or no coffee it’s only tea and no water to drink on the table
