Wonderful onsen hotel near Koyasan.

A beautiful traditional hotel. The meals, both dinner and breakfast, were superb. The onsen fully met the expectation. The room was very charming. The staff professional and helpful. We used the shuttle service to and from Koyasan, all good.

Peaceful rest in an old Onsen hotel

This a humble hotel in an isolated location. If you want to experience what the Japanese experience this is the place. It is older and everything works but it is definately dated. The food was excellent and we had the fixed menu dinner and breakfast for 2 days. We loved hanging about in a yukata and haori for the duration of our stay, and the easy access to the onsen overlooking the river. This is not a fancy place, but it is a genuine experience so suited us perfectly.

Traditional isolated ryokan

This was an isolated ryokan by a river with traditional indoor onset and Japanese only meals. About 15km from Koyasan it was the closest to the expensive alternatives in Koyasan that we could find, though the very narrow mountain roads take about 40mins to cover, and are best done during daylight hours.

It is an older h@djotel but the rooms are clean and spacious. All rooms have the river. Room 203 is beside a small waterfall as well. All necessary facilities including a public bath, small shop to purchase snacks and essentials and a restaurant with Japanese food. Only issue is no private shower or bath but there is private sink and toilet. Nice mountain views from observation decks in the area around Nosegawa to view the sea of clouds if you're lucky. Supposed to be good for star gazing. Staff were friendly and helpful. Easy parking Infront of the hotel.

Great views but worn and stuck in time warp.

We drove to this hotel, used google maps and took us on a very narrow road. Don’t take 733, take 371 slightly longer but much better route. Nice onsen. No one in there. Breakfast was included but only Japanese. Had it the first morning but asked to have only coffee in the following morning. Nice river view out of our room.

A great value for money in a friendly retro atmosphere

I stayed in the old bulding and had the pleasure to listen to waterfall and frog sounds from the nearby river all night. Very soothing. The place has a great retro atmosphere, clean and nice onsen and great food. On top of that, when I inquired about public buses to Koyasan from near villages, I was told by the receptionist he will take me there the next morning via car. Free of charge. What a service!

This is in the middle of nowhere, and we were entirely dependent on the hotel staff, for everything. They were terrific, always doing their best to take care of us. The onsen is nice, the view from our windows was great, and the food was very good.
