The room is spacious. Very close to the JR station. The bathroom is spacious too. Staff is very nice. They arranged me on the same floor with the washing machine, i am so happy with that.

Highly recommended. The staff are standout super efficient, always available and friendly. The hotel is spotlessly clean and newly refurbished (especially the rooms). The Japanese breakfast was an amazing experience. If we had to do this northwest region again we'd definitely repeat this as our base.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The bedroom was spacious and comfortable. We tried the private onsen and it was also an amazing experience. We ordered to have dinner and breakfast in our room and it was an amazing feast! They even catered vegetarian for us which is a huge bonus in Japan.

Extremely beautiful hotel, very friendly and accomodating staff, great onsen, sake bar, library, and you get your steps in as it‘s fairly big. Next time I‘d like to try the in-room massage service. We have stayed at a Shigeru Ban designed place in Karuizawa before, but at around three or four times the price of what we paid here. While that one felt very secluded, this one had a bit of a communal feel to it. Breakfast was nice (not too many vegetarian options, but clearly labeled), and the breakfast area was gorgeous.

The private onsen in the room is amazing! The window can be fully opened and we enjoy the mountain view and fresh air so much. Tachibahana location is great too. We can take a pleasant walk along the Atsui river and experience the mountain village life.

For the price I paid, the quality of food exceeds expectation so were the hot springs. My only grouse is the pillows were not the traditional buck wheat pillows I expected. Meals were served in the room which has a separate sitting and dining area from the bed room. The Yonezawa beef came with a price but it is well worth paying for. A very nice 2-day stay.

Location was within Onogawa, which was a quaint little town perfect to walk around in spring weather. A bit difficult to access Yonezawa city, but good if you only want to experience Onogawa. Staff was extremely thorough in explaining the facilities and things to do around the area.

Loved the public bath, the outdoors bath was particularly nice. The style of the hotel is traditional and its very pretty. The staff was very very nice and kaminoyama is a great location to explore and visit for a day. The food was very nice, the meals are well served. Overall a great Onsen experience. They even gave us a present from the gift shop when we said we were on honeymoon. Thank you!
