Clean and quiet, good sized room, comfortable bedding, good common room facilities, varied and generous breakfasts, and host(s) with good English, many suggestions for touring and localities, and a great sense of humour.

The hotel entrance, common area, room, onsen, and kitchen all are exceptionally very nice. The public onsen water was very hot and had all the things. I could enjoy it. If you go late in the night or the morning not many people will be there and you can get the feeling of a private bath.

Loved the quirky friendly feel of the place. The owner Re was super accomodating, generous and fun. Hot spring was also a bonus

Glorious onsen and large room. I loved the yoghurt drink they had in the fridge and the host was absolutely wonderful. He took us to the base of the monkey onsen and was very accommodating and friendly. Definitely coming back again!

Michael Australia

The staff were very helpful, and will drive you to snow monkey park upon request. He also opened the onsen earlier for us to accommodate our schedule.

Jason Singapur

Welcoming staff that went out of his way to accommodate our needs. Fantastic and fun common area which was great for families.

We absolutely loved staying here! The staff were so accommodating and lovely, it has a private onsen which was fantastic if you have little ones who want the experience (we were lucky to have it to ourselves) and the rooms were huge and comfortable.

Loved this hotel - the hotel manager was funny & completely engaging… our kids thought he was hilarious. The location was great, we were picked up from the train station & also a free transfer to The Monkey Park.. rock music & games in the common area, along with a kitchen for guest use were wonderful additions to this eclectic, extremely well preserved time capsule right down to it’s 1970’s decor. We loved the onsite onsen at the end of a long, cold day.

This place must have been something in its prime, but that seems like a while ago. However staff were perfectly friendly and spoke decent English. The rooms were large with a large sitting area. Beds comfortable. Plenty of parking spaces, but then again we seemed to be the only guests that night ( kind of between tourist seasons, mid October). We only stayed one night to visit the Monkey Park in the morning and continue our road trip. Jigokudani is a short drive away. Plenty of restaurants withing walking distance. Breakfast is a Japanese set menu served in a breakfast room at a time of your chosing. Unfortunately we didnt try the onsen so can't comment on that.

We had a great time staying here. The service provided was beyond our expectations with help with our luggage upstairs, restaurant recommendations and being driven to the train station on our departure. Our rooms were spacious and comfortable and there is a lovely common space with games to play. We were able to enjoy an onsen (which was a pleasant surprise as I have tattoos) and was a great way to wind down after walking to the snow monkey park.
