    A very pleasant relaxing onsen heaven that makes you feel outdoors when you are indoors......

    We booked two nights. The first night dinner was exceptionally wonderful, full of gentle spring flavors. The chef is truly great. But the second night dinner was much below expectation, and service level was slow too.

    The private onsen in the room is amazing! The window can be fully opened and we enjoy the mountain view and fresh air so much. Tachibahana location is great too. We can take a pleasant walk along the Atsui river and experience the mountain village life.

    We were staying in one of the suites and it was sensational. We were told the room had been redone about a year ago and the room was luxurious and very spacious. We had our own private onsen which was amazing and so beautiful particularly when it was snowing. The communal area was also quite new (the photos don’t reflect the update). Watching the koi fish from this area was very relaxing. The public baths were also very clean and relaxing. The staff were very professional and kind. There was only one staff member who spoke English but everyone made us feel so welcome and we used a translating app when we needed to. I would definitely recommend staying here. I can’t speak highly enough about how much we enjoyed our time here.

    You have to pay extra (around 3000 yen) for the private onsen

    Really nice and welcoming staff, the room was big and nice, with all the amenities.

    Love the atmosphere and onsen.

    Don't have an email to contact. Finally track it down. But, no one return email because of poor English understanding. Seems like there are only 3 people who can speak English. My concern is how to arrange the pick up from the train station to the hotel. I have to contact my secretary to call them twice. First time was only Japanese speaking front desk workers. In the morning, my secretary finally get through and arranged my pickup.

    The peaceful atmosphere of the whole place. The meals are so coordinate and precise. Very refine. At the arrival and departure, there is such courtesy. It feels like a VIP arriving to the hotel, but when they come out to send me off, it feels like a family member is departing.

    I loved everything

    The staff were all wonderful. I was caught in a snowstorm driving in but they were so understanding about me arriving late. Even with no Japanese speaking they made me feel very welcome and respected. The food was wonderful with so many flavours. I only wish that I had stayed longer

    The fact we had to leave! I could have very happily stayed longer.

    Everything! The hotel is comfortable and attractive. The staff are exceptional and so helpful in all aspects. The onsen facilities are wonderful and the food was heavenly. We were there for three nights as a rest and step back from our hectic holiday. Left feeling refreshed and sad that our stay was over.

    Welcome Baby Program Assures You Will be Surrounded by Young Children and Infants Everywhere

    Property is overrun with infants and toddlers. The hotel has a VERY popular program called 'Welcome Baby' which attracts MANY families with infants and tots. All common areas are overrun with preschoolers and babies. If you like eating, bathing, and lounging with crying and screetching children then this is a great hotel for you. If you like having babies and 2-3 yr olds surround you in the lobby, bar, lounge, garden, hallways, baths, and dining rooms then this is a perfect hotel for you. But if instead you desire a peaceful, quiet, and relaxing adult experience you will not find it here. Welcome baby program = unwelcome adult program. Choose accordingly.

    Annex room was spacious and garden views are nice.

    Nothing!

    The staff were very friendly and professional. The lounge and garden were beautiful. The place is clean and well-maintained. They have tama-konyaku at the lounge for guests to snack on while waiting for the room. The onsen was huge and enjoyable. The food was lovely, just the right portion so there’s no wastage.
