Perfect hotel. Location was next to the train station which is a must in this hilly town. Property nice and clean. Food was excellent. Kaiseki dinner with meat was tasty and filling. Breakfast was very good. Unfortunately the outdoor onsen was closed. Indoor onsen was large and had a variety of pools. Overall a memorable stay and I highly recommend this hotel.

Check in was quick and staff was friendly. The room was clean. My only complaint would be the noise. The walls were thin and I could hear the people talking in the next room. The towels in the bathroom were a bit small, as well. Everything else was good.

Mid-budget hotel right next to the Station
It was a simple one night stay to check out the place and enjoy a bit of me-time. The only thing I am not happy about was the fact I need to pay 150 yen for the use of the onsen which should have been complimentary for hotel guests. Yes the amount is small but the shock of being presented with a bill at the end of the stay when it is not expected is not welcomed.

Very close to train station and popular hotsprings
It was a good place for the price. Doesn't have as many amenities as some of the other hotels, however, the others costs a heck of a lot more money. The staff was very friendly and accomodating (except late check out is not allowed without a fee). The hot springs/ bathing area is nothing big, but is good. Rooms do not have wifi. Only available in the lobby. Besides that, there really isn't much else the hotel offers.

温泉ぬるめ、駅近、コスパよし。
温泉が10時までで、30分前までに入らなければならないのがちょいと残念。サクッと入ってすぐ出るのに10分かからない。 スタッフの挨拶は良く気持ちが良い。 駅からすぐで、坂もキツくなく電車で来る人にはオススメ。

房間內沒有瓶裝水供應,也沒有如別的温泉酒店般送上迎賓小吃。野外浴場跟大浴場分開很不方便,讓人不能同時享用。浴場內沒有提供毛巾。晚餐內容可以作一些變化,如果我們訂了吃神戶牛,住兩晚的可以用不同方式烹調.
