The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Relaxing Onsen Experience

I had the chance to enjoy the onsen during my stay, and it was an absolute highlight! The variety of bath sizes and temperatures, both indoors and outdoors, provided something for everyone. Lying in the outdoor section while gazing up at the sky was a unique and relaxing experience. The onsen felt like a favorite destination for locals, which speaks volumes about its quality.

Delicious Breakfast Spread

The breakfast offered at the hotel was simply excellent! I enjoyed a wide array of options including various types of rice, soups, fresh vegetables, and even grilled fish. The flavors were authentic and fulfilling, ensuring I started my day on a high note. I must say, it’s a must-try whether you are starting your day or just want to indulge!

Cozy and Well-equipped Room

My room was comfortable and well-equipped with everything I needed for my stay. Despite being smaller by Western standards, it was perfectly functional with a cozy bed, a small refrigerator, and even an electric kettle with tea. The attention to detail made me feel at home, and the clean linens topped it all off beautifully.

Functional and Clean Bathroom

The bathroom was compact yet functional, featuring high-quality amenities such as shampoo, conditioner, and soap. I appreciated the attention to cleanliness and availability of disposables like toothbrushes. The hot shower was invigorating after long days of exploring. I felt refreshed and ready for whatever came next!
