“A wonderful stay and experience”
The accommodation looked absolutely beautiful; it had that traditional Japanese atmosphere and four types of onsen—an outdoor bath, an indoor bath, a private bath, and a foot bath. The room was very spacious with plenty of storage space. We also had a free breakfast and could make tea, soup, or coffee in the lobby downstairs at any time. We were also given the option to choose and borrow a yukata for the duration of our stay.

“Wish we could have stayed longer”
It has a very calm and homely atmosphere. We loved the private baths, yukatas and the very lovely staff. You get a small but good breakfast. The room was large and it's very quiet at night. So we slept very well.

The place was clean,, ryokan style excellent wifi, and different types of Onsen, private as well as for family and for females/ males only. The owner provided towels and clothing to go around to other onsens. It took about 10 min walking to the center of town

Very nice, traditional Ryokan. Great selection of indoor and outdoor onsen as well as private onsen, very close to town, approx 5-10 mins walk and only 2 mins to a convenience store. Highly recommended.

Our first time in a Japanese Ryokan, and the experience was lovely. This place is a little bit out of the way, away from the Centre of Kusatsu, but we were driving so it was accessible. A parking spot was made available for us for free. The check in time is only till 6pm. We missed this fact and were running 1.5 hours behind, but they graciously waited for us when we called to let them know. Also we forgot some items in the safe when we left but they kindly helped courier it to our next destination.

“Best place in kusatsu”
Like no other. Hot water spots all over. Great breakfast. The owners were so sweet, they even offer us a ride to the bus stop when it was raining. The confort of the room and bed is like no other.

“Authentic onsen guesthouse experience at an affordable price.”
It was a homely guesthouse in a traditional style. The staff were so lovely and kind - they really made our stay great. The futon were comfortable and the view from the room was stunning. We didn’t know a simple breakfast was included so that was a nice surprise. Yummy bread and egg and salad. The outdoor onsen (private and shared) were very nice and we loved the yukata available in many sizes and colours. Also, it wasn’t clear in our booking but we did get our own toilet so shared bathroom just means for bathing. We liked staying 10 minute walk from the center of town so it was extra peaceful. We felt like we had an authentic experience and would love to stay again.

Very nice old fashioned ryokan, with authentic Japanese style Rooms was big enough and clean, without any disturbing smells. It’s old ryokan so be aware, you can hear when people talk in room nearby

“Fantastic and beatiful onsen”
Fantastic Ryokan with extremely nice and hot onsen inside and out. Magical in the snow. I couldnt have felt more relaxed after just 2 nights. Aparently Studio Ghiblhi staff came to the hotel for inspiration while making spirited away.
