It was very comfortable, beds 10/10, they were very cosy and kept us warm and also include an electric blanket. Two of the 3 of us were from hot and sunny Qld Australia and our son brought us to Kusatsu Onsen at a time when it was very cold and snowing. It was exceptionally wonderful time to visit when it snowed.
The onsens in the hotel were great as well as the ones in the park and town.

First traditional onsen ryokan experience for me and my Aussie partner. We were absolutely stunned by how elegant and detailed of food was. It was lucky that Tokyo snowed few days ago so we get to see snow covering Kusatsu. We bathed in the onsen admiring how unreal the view was with snow. Brilliant service too but the front desk can barely speak English.

Free shuttle bus to and fro the town center. Room is spacious and clean. The relatively rural and tranquil atmosphere made this stay relaxing and enjoyable. Wide spread at breakfast and many amenities available at the hotel itself.
Tennis courts and beautiful natural hot spring baths, Kusatsu Now Resort is a 5-minute drive from Kusatsu Onsen Bus Terminal. Rooms have large windows with nature views.

Love the private onsen. Well designed and spacious of the room. Hotel even provide a small bottle of champagne for us. What we see on the website regarding the room and the hotel surrounding is exactly what we see when we there. 👍
We also love the public onsen where there is indoor and outdoor.
Love the unlimited snow crab dinner buffet.
Hotel also has a lot of nice, comfortable resting area.
Love the hotel able to provide transport to bus terminal and Yabatake town.
Built in 1913, the Kusatsu Hotel exhibits the architectural style of the Japanese Taisho Era.

Good location. On a quiet spot at the end of the main street of the town and right at the entrance of the country park. We took about 15 minutes to walk from the train station. But the ryokan also provided pick up and drop off service. Our room was spacious, comfortable and spotless clean. Excellent indoor and open air bath with spring water from 2 famous origins. Must try them all. The staff who served us were very good and helpful. We loved its relaxation room which provided freshly boil coffee and foot hot spring bath.
Located in the Kusatsu hot-spring area and a 10-minute walk from Kusatsu Bus Terminal, Hotel Takamatsu offers simple Japanese-style rooms and various indoor/outdoor hot-spring baths.

Spacious rooms and great location. The onsen at the hotel was wonderful.
Hanaingen is an adult only accommodation situated in Kusatsu, just a 2-minute walk from Yubatake, or the hot water field in Kusatsu Onsen.

Very convenient. Less than 5 minutes from bus station and central Kusatsu square.
Lovely welcome snack and breakfasts on both days (which they kindly switched up so I didn’t have same thing twice - although I liked the Japanese breakfast more!)

I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel.
I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel. It is nestled in the mountains, a gorgeous drive from Tokyo (If you have the time, drive!) Many places to drop in for a foot soak, lots of little shops and restaurants. Prepare to wait in the busy season (which I believe is the fall and winter). This time we stayed in a traditional Japanese hotel with tatami and only futons for sleeping- being from the US, this made the trip especially fun but make sure you are ok with getting up and down from the floor. There are less people who speak English than in the major cities. But if you are comfortable pointing and smiling and trying google translate, it is a beautiful place to visit. Note that people with limited mobility may find the town difficult to navigate (steps and steep hills). Better for adults, but there is a little tropical zoo nearby and the onsen demonstration is fun.

Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter.
Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter. We went in February and it was snowing. Family love it so much that we’re planning to visit for next winter. A lot of private hot spring and delicious food. We had kaiseki for breakfast and dinner at our ryokan. Definitely worth the trip and ain’t too far from Tokyo. Stay a night if possible.

If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-...
If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-spring town in the mountains then, Kusatsu is the place for you. It takes a while to get there with the train and bus but if you have the time then I would recommend it. The culture surrounding hot-springs is unique to the Japanese and there is no better place to experience it.
Get early there for a day trip because most buses coming down to the train station stop running around 7 PM.

Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings.
Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings. Great Onsen. Its best to go for relaxation purpose and take a dip in the hotsprings. The places to look out for are 1) Yubatake (center of the town) - Please do visit in the evenings as well when the lights turn ON and make it a beautiful view.
2) Sainokawara Park and Open air Onsen. This is a must visit place to spend good walk in the park and then visit Open air Onsen
JR Bus station is very close to center - Yubatake. So it's just a 5mins walk and also there are round trip bus by JR to all sightseeing spots. Most of the resorts offer shuttle bus service also; so I recommend to check with your resort before booking. This really helped us.
The food is next best thing in Kusatsu. However if you are Vegetarian like us you might find difficulty to find good restaurants. However, there are a couple of Italian restaurants that offer good pasta and pizza which is loaded with vegetables.
One major thing to note is the Bus service from Kusatsu Bus station to Nagonahara Kusatsuguchi. The bus service is not regular; so please check it and plan your outbound trip.

The Yubatake area is picturesque and has many nearby shops with Japanese treats you can take out and eat/drink while sitting and enjoying the ambiance of Yubatake. Lots of traditional Japanese buildings, walkable streets with shops selling souvenirs and Japanese treats. Be sure to take the 10min walk from Yubatake thru Sainokawahara Koen (Park) to the large outdoor hot spring bath Sainokawhara Rotenburo.

The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs.
The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs. I have tried various ones, Kusatsu hot springs are relaxing and the the feeling is wonderful.
The food in the town is delicious, I tried Udon with Tempura in some places, it was just delicious.
Don’t forget to try the onsen tamago as a speciality of the town.
Beautiful onsen, wonderful obliging and friendly staff, perfect location close to the Yuba, bus station, supermarket and the open onsen park. A very nice restaurant right next door as well with oishi soba as well a Lawson downstairs. It was snowing and cold when we were there so this convenience was a godsend. Supermarket also had very nice cooked food. A really wonderful stay. Kusatsu is a very beautiful town. I would highly recommend this accommodation and the breakfasts were superb, really special and beautifully presented.
Amazing ryokan/hotel in Kusatsu. Staff were friendly and helpful. There was an initial mix-up with the room reservation, but the staff made sure to take care of it right away. The facilities were great and the room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was hearty and delicious, and again, the staff made us feel very comfortable. And on check-out, they gave us a free coffee coupon to their sister coffeeshop, which was an incredibly nice gesture.
Comfortable bed
Room is beautifully decorated
I booked for a shared bathroom at i still got a toilet in my room
4 beautiful private onsens
Welcome sweets and green tea
Unlimited cofee and even flavored water
Close to the bus station and a short walk to Yubatake and all the center of Kusatsu onsen
They have different shampoos and conditioner and we can use when we go onsen bathing
Bathroom has skin care.
Situated at the end of the road from the yubatake, it's perfect and not noisy. There aren't many rooms, so it means the onsen are less packed!
They also have their own foot bath, so there is no need to wait or find an empty one outside.
It's also close to Sainokawara Park, so you can easily go for a breathtaking walk at night! (Before the hotel door closes, of course)
Dinner was very cool, multiple courses that were all tasty. The room was also very nice with a clean and comprehensive bathroom. The private onsen was incredibly cheap as well and you get it for 40 minutes which is plenty of time. However if you want more than that you can always go to the one public to the rest of the ryokan.
great staff , very helpful and thoughtful, even offered to send us to the kusatsu bus station when we checked out .
breakfast was amazing , love the private onsen
they have 4 private onsens that u can choose from
also had old school games and famicom available for guests to enjoy
Great location right at the heart of town. Big property with duty free store located within its premise. Half board package was affordable and food was good too. Onsen in the hotel was amazing and hot. Hotel also offered pick up service from the station. Great value for money!
The staff is so kind and very approachable, and the food was so healthy and delicious , we choose sora the room was so big and they have our own onsen tub. And we try their 4 kinds of onsen we chosse the big one. Me and hubby was so relax.. i recomended this onsen hotel…
Kind and attentive host, tasteful furnishing, everywhere seems the ownership spirit of the 5 generations (as we learned). English fluently spoken. The famous Kusatsu hot water in the house onsen. 1st class futon beds. Could not choose any better.
Room was spacious and clean, Bed was comfortable to sleep in, the Onsen was great. Was very easy for our family and everyone seem to enjoyed it! My especially loved dressing up in Yukata and exploring around Kusatsu with little lantern.
The hotel was very traditional. Lovely decor and room was very comfortable. There were no showers in the rooms however the onsen facilities were amazing if you didn't mind being naked with strangers.
Very kind hotel manager doing a lot of the work. The room was also very very clean! I liked the cute towel baskets we could take with us to the onsen. The breakfast was very balanced and delicious!
They have quite a few onsen pools, with water sourced differently. The outdoor pools are sizeable too. For those visiting the town for better onsen enjoyment, this is one of the best hotels.
This hotel, room, and location was wonderful! Great to see in the winter time, and close to the little town with restaurants and shops. My husband and I especially loved the private onsen!
The room was very big and clean
The public bath was incredible and relaxing.
Good location, near the main streets of kusatsu onsen.
Also, the pickup service at the bus station is a plus
Easy access to the center of Kusatsu onsen, shuttle service also easy to arrange by approaching tourist information desk at bus stop who quickly help us call the hotel. Room was clean.
Close to centre town Kusatsu and all the onsens, good local suggestions from the owner, and the kotatsu (japanese heated table) was a nice touch in the colder fall weather.
- Onsen at the resort was nice, particularly the outdoor ones.
- Onsen is nearly open 24h
- Japanese traditional room
- Good location, not too far from the centre
