Amazing Japanese style hotel

It is a wonderful Japanese style hotel with very friendly staff and nice facilities such as indoor and open air baths. Since we only stayed one night, we almost felt like there was not enough time to enjoy it! Would love to come back. It is conveniently located in the town.

The room was incredible and spacious. Hotel staff were very nice and made me feel very welcome. The onsen was such a pleasure to use as it has an indoor and outdoor section. In my room I loved the chair at the window. You sink right in and just take a moment to relax while having a beverage. If I ever return to Kusatsu onsen I will definitely wish to stay here again.

I would highly recommend staying here, shuttle to bus station is a bonus.

The traditional Japanese hotel is 100 years old yet very clean and modern.

It is a very classic and elegant hotel. The property is extremely clean and the atmosphere feels both luxurious and comfortable. The private booking onsen was very clean and enjoyable. Although the food was decent, it was relatively ordinary compared to the rest of the experience. Overall, I was very satisfied and would definitely consider staying here again when visiting Kusatsu.

Beautiful, fells like a lovely country village. Highly recommend

We stayed in the annex. It was fabulous. So much room and close to the natural springs. The staff went above and beyond, when I injured my ankle snowboarding.

Will stay again, fuss free and overall comfortable!

Next to Sainokawara Park, and walkable distance to Yubatake. Bus Terminal is also nearby. Clean and comfortable room with private onsen bath. Staff service is prompt and efficient. Awesome that you can select no meal option which benefits guests who would like to have their meals outside.

Magical historical hotel in Kusatsu! Right next to the hot springs park and situated on a slope overlooking the mountains and town. We were a bit afraid to book because the photos of the rooms didn’t look too appealing, but in reality both the rooms and the hotel itself is beautiful, modernised and comfortable inside, while maintaining a lovely period vibe! The public bath was also nice, with a relaxing outdoor pool.
