We had a pleasant stay, largely thanks to the excellent onsen facilities. The room was standard and met our needs, though the dining experience varied. We found the dinner buffet to be average in terms of quality and variety, whereas the breakfast was a step up and much more satisfying.

Hotel as a whole was clean and well kept, although the decor was rather dated that gave you an ‘80s vibe (in a good way). Dinner buffet was nice and have a decent variety of dishes. I will highly recommend future guests to opt for it. Staff was courteous and professional. Both checking in and checking out was efficient despite being in high season.

First, the pictures on expedia or even the hotels website did not do this place justice. This is a gorgeous hotel with lots to do and see. We were checked in by "Lucky" who spoke really great english. He spent about an hour with us checking us in, walking us to our rooms, showing us everything in our rooms and helping with luggage. Both the dinner and breakfast were buffet with lots of options. I think we were the only foreigners there but they did not treat us any different. The shuttle down to the town square is very convenient. We did not use the hot springs but we did use the open air bath in our room which was amazing. The beds were reasonable comfortable. Enjoyed the plethora of amenities and open space in the room.

The wear and tear is kind of showing throughout the establishment but it was nice overall. I was a little underwhelmed with the dinner buffet but the breakfast buffet was fantastic. I felt like I could’ve eaten something nicer down in the Yubataki area. Also the shower in the room barely had hot water. But the showers in the onsen area were perfect.

Great stay. I booked a room with open air bath and it came with the access to the executive lounge for afternoon snacks and drinks. Snacks, beers and wine. The snacks there was amazing. Coz I booked two consecutive nites, they gave us access to the exclusive public bath, less ppl and with more privacy. The room was so clean and the staff were excellent. I was impressed by a staff Jaing, she was so helpful and always so enthusiastic and ready to help all the time when I saw her at the reception - check in and check out and when she was working at the executive lounge. The cleaning team was doing an excellent job. All of these made my stay so wonderful.
