"What stood out for me was the onsen and the ryokan room we booked. Loved the touch of traditional and modern."

"Highlight was definitely the onsen. This is the best onsen I have ever used in any area of Japan. It's huge, there are so many different options for baths, and the women's open air bath was so beautiful and picturesque in the middle of winter, right next to a snow covered mountain. It was spotless clean and they provide so many amenities. We stayed in a Japanese style room and it was lovely. The different wings weren't actually as spread out as it seemed so nothing was too far away. Buffet dinner and breakfast were great, lots of variety and lots of vegetarian options which I was worried about! Hands down the best spot for Jigokudani and the boardwalk and park trails (most of the trails were closed for winter though). An easy short stroll to the valley and in the other direction cute souvenir shops. Definitely recommend :)"

"Super view! "

"The onsen was the best I’ve ever been in. The outdoor “wood spas” with about 10 different minerals and essential oils was absolutely fantastic. My only gripe is that the half board meals are identical day to day. I only stayed 2 days, so I’m not sure how frequently the food items change. I will say the selection is giant. Because I’m used to places that change the food options daily.. I tried to eat through the whole buffet on the first day, trying little bits of everything. Had I realized it didn’t change, I would have just had larger portions of some items and tried other stuff the next day. "

"Lovely staff and a quaint little place, but at the time of booking I didn’t realise it was one shared toilet down very narrow stairs, which isn’t great in the middle of the night. Of course this isn’t the fault of the hotel, just be aware of this when booking. "

"Everything was great the food, the onsen"

"We had the most gorgeous time at this beautiful ryokan/onsen/resort. The setting is so calm and luxurious – I’ll never forget sitting in the (huge) window of our room in the evening and morning, watching the birdlife over the pond and river, with the snowy mountains in the distance. The outdoor onsen is especially spectacular in the early mornings and late nights, and we appreciated that even at 'busy' times during our stay there were only a handful of other people at most in the onsen. It was also lovely to have information for those new to onsen, so everyone felt welcome and comfortable, and a recommended 'itinerary' for a one-night stay, acknowledging that many (like us) would only have a short time here. Dinner and breakfast were both stunning in the traditional ryokan style, with lovely sake and wine on offer in the evening. The hotel is clearly able to accomodate a large number of guests but is cleverly laid out (as is the dining room) to make it feel very intimate and private for each guest. It’s such a special and calm place, and one I’ll always think of very fondly! (PS. You can access the National Ainu Museum by foot via the hotel car park, or it’s a very quick drive next door. We visited after checking out — not to be missed!)"

"The room was very spacious and clean, but one thing I didn't enjoy was the smel of bug killer spray. I think I wasn't lucky. I'm sure the room usually doesn't smel. The food was amazing. "

"Property need to go through some upgrades. Stay at room 346 for 3 nights. Room ceiling has dust and moulds around washing sink. It is also noisy in the middle of the night can hear noise , push/dragging if furniture sound coming from the dining area cause room is directly above it. Bed sheets has holes too , lol. Onsen is nice however the drying/ beauty area has 2 hair dryer not in working condition. May not be worth the $ . "
