I visited this hotel in 2019 and came back now, in 2024, since I really liked it. It was up to my memory and expectations. The owners prepared breakfast for me and that was lovely.

The place is magical, like taken from a movie. We fell in love with the onsen experience. Everything was clean and organized. The dinner and the breakfast were wonderful. And don't miss hiking around the town and forest.

It is an experience not to be missed. The service and meals are deserving of a Hatted restaurant Highly recommended for an Onsen/Ryokan stay

I think it’s the most beautiful and charming hotel we stayed at so far! The rooms and onsen are just stunning, traditional looking but extremely clean and well maintained. The women’s bath is incredible, very high ceiling and you get the impression to go back in time a few centuries. The staff was exceptional, making us feel very welcome and comfortable, so friendly and helpful. The food was michelin standard, and the ryokan is basically in the middle of a beautiful forest - everything was perfect!! Thank you so much!

Great Ryokan as it was authentic old wooden building attached to other buildings which was a maze to reach the dining room and onsen

The staff was very helpful and with excellent English. I had a room in traditional Japanese style, it was huge and comfortable (unless you don't like sleeping on futon). I couldn't go to onsen , but it seemed really nice. And they have really good cosmetics in the bathroom.

Excellent Dinner and Breakfast. All inclusive drinks. Private Onsen/Hot spring was amazing. Staff were very accommodating and the Cherry blossom in full bloom along the nearby river was a huge bonus. Excellent artworks throughout the property

The property is situated just beside lake Tazawa which is delightful. The rooms are spacious and we had a separate dining area opposite our room. It is a traditional Japanese hotel with futon beds and kaiseki dinner plus a Japanese breakfast. It also has a ladies, mens and private onsen.

Five star service in a five star ryokan. Worth the price. Free yukata with different sizes and design available for guests. Very peaceful ryokan. Wish we could stay longer to explore the surrounding nature. Kaiseki dinner and breakfast was amazing. Staff was so attentive to our requests and took the time asking about our dietary requirements. Massage chairs available for guests to use. Loved the Indoor and outdoor public bath. Highly recommended for those who wants a luxury ryokan experience.

Very beautiful traditional ryokan, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Had a blast snowboarding for the first time and enjoyed the onsen after a whole day out in the cold. Breakfast and dinner are delicious and very large portions.
