Spacious and Cozy

“During my stay, I experienced the Beautiful room which offered an incredibly spacious layout of approximately 30m2. The room was immaculately clean and featured a traditional tatami mat setup, creating a cozy atmosphere perfect for relaxation. It also included a private Onsen tub which allowed for a peaceful and rejuvenating soak in complete privacy.” view full review

Delicious Culinary Experience

“The dining experience was a highlight of my visit, as I opted for half-board meals. The breakfast and dinner were both served in a private dining room, and each meal was a work of art. The flavors were really good—every dish was beautifully presented and fresh. I particularly appreciated how the hotel offered a variety of dishes that accommodated dietary preferences, making every meal enjoyable.” view full review

Relaxing Onsen Experience

“The onsen facilities were a significant part of my stay. There were multiple onsens available, and the crowd management ensured a serene atmosphere where only a few guests were present at any given time. Each soak was refreshing and soothing, allowing me to fully unwind after a day of activities. The quality of the onsen made my first experience so nice.” view full review

“The bathroom facilities in my room were thoughtfully designed, featuring modern touches while still honoring traditional Japanese aesthetics. The cleanliness and functionality of the space made it an inviting area for a relaxing wash after a long day.
