Book a hotel near Mount Kita, Minami-Alps

"The room was spacious, and the breakfast was delicious, though mainly Japanese with just some bread rolls, which may be limiting for those who prefer the Western style breakfast. There were separate onsen areas, one open to public and the other just for the hotel guests. The public bath was open only for limited times, and the amenities were minimal."

"Good spa. Room is typical small size . "

"The staff at this hotel were exceptionally polite, and both dinner and breakfast were absolutely fantastic. The hotel itself is obviously old and could use some serious renovations. Overall, I enjoyed the stay, but I probably wouldn't return unless they upgrade a few things."

"Onsen felt like it wasn't real onsen and all the baths were lukewarm and not hot. Room was non smoking but smelt like cigarettes real bad like somebody was just here a day ago chain smoking. Actually bought room deodorizer for cigarettes and left it there. Parking was infested with weeds that sticks to your clothes took me 20 min to remove. Meal was part of the reservation but that wasnt communicated clearly to me. They ended up calling me asking me if im coming down for dinner twice even when i told them i dont need meal since already had plans. Not a big deal but stay tax could only be paid in cash. Out of all the hotels i stayed at japan this place is the only place that said cash only. I wonder what they would have said if i told them i dont have cash. With that in mind i dont think they were being truthful and was just being lazy. The hotel seems like it has some history but the proper investment is not being made. Could be better if they have the right mindset. "

"It is too overpriced, very old and cleaning room is lazy! Two day night stays for 350000 yen with no breakfast? However, it is Dec 27 and 28 ! I expected better! "

"Very typical Japanese small establishment onsen with a commune bathroom. Definitely need a car to explore what the area has to offer. They serve traditional Japanese breakfast and dinner, you need to book in advance. Very delicious and worth a try. Enjoyed our stay and recommend it. "
