We had a lovely onsen in our private bathroom though it desperately needed painting and lots of mould around the skirting.

Lovely room and fabulous dinner and breakfast

The distance from the town, but it ended up being fine for us because we just liked relaxing at the ryokan the whole time.

We loved our private onsen

For the public onsen, the shower area is situated in the outdoor space so it can get very cold to shower in winter. The water taps are also not easy to turn on so it's challenging to shower before going in onsen in the cold.

The cave onsen is very unique and impressive. Both the breakfast and dinner are great.

while the level of cleanliness of indoor bathroom is very acceptable, we have been to other ryokans where the level was even higher.

both the breakfast and the dinner were excellent - the high quality as expected.

If the stay is more than one night, i.e. need to go out for lunch, many restaurants in the neighbourhood did not open on weekdays and so the ones open are very busy. Even if they open choices are still limited. Have no problem if the stay include meals.

Staff are nice and efficient. Attentive to the needs of small kid.

This Ryokan is great with two amazing outdoor and cave hot bath. Very quiet, peaceful. Our room is very spacious with a private hot bath and little garden. I liked everything of this ryokan except only complain is the toilet has a smell. But, good thing is toilet is far desperate with the other rooms, no big issue with the smell. Only when you are using the toilet. ^^; Our family had good time relax here!

Really good, nice to have your own "pool" in connection to your room. And it was amazing food, both dinner and breakfast.

Abit tricky to get to. Some signposts would have been useful.

Amazing room! Huge! Love the surprisingly big and pretty outdoor onsen! Very peaceful surroundings. Amazing and huge array of food! Very friendly staff! (Especially the lady who served us dinner!). Dinner was also served in private rooms. Thoughtful touches like they actually hung number plates on our room door because we were non Japanese and they were concerned that we.could not recognise our room with the name in Kanji.

We stayed in "Japanese Style Room with Private Bathroom" and had a private small onsen in our room. It was incredible and 100% worth it. Everything was perfect: - the large size of the room - the onsen (both private and public); the public onsens are split into male and female and both have an outside onsen and a cave onsen which is amazing - the food (both dinner and breakfast) is great and a lot - and ofc the super friendly staff Can't recommend this place enough. This was one of the best experiences we had during our long stay in Japan.

Location: This ryokan/onsen is in a quiet area 10 minutes away from much busier onsen town. Nice to visit busier town with shops but stay in relaxing quiet location. Onsens are outdoors in nature and very clean.

Some decorations in the lounge are a bit dated and might be good to refresh with new hanging frames etc.

Traditional tatami rooms good for big family. Kaiseki dinners were delicious and very good service too. Fantastic outdoor onsens. Free coffee and teas in the common lounge. A 5 min drive to the Kurokawa onsen.

Nothing really.

The ryokan has a slightly contemporary feel to it - meals are served in the restaurant area, albeit each group has its own room. There is also a cosy coffee lounge/library where guests can relax outside their rooms. Our room (there were 4 of us) had 2 single beds and 2 futons in the living area. We had an indoor hot spring bath and one on an outdoor terrace, which was lovely. The public bath was great and included a cave bath. The food was excellent. Breakfast, unsurprisingly, is Japanese, which can be a bit of a challenge to those for whom sashimi at 8am would not be their first choice. Staff were unfailingly polite and helpful. The ryokan is about 5 mins by car from Kurokawa Onsen.
