“Dinner was a memorable experience. Lots of dishes were offered, Not all were to my taste, but nevertheless, the food was prepared by experts who take pride in their craft.
The onsen, in particular the outside onsen, was amazing. The mineral rich water is easily 40°C.”
“- excellent location, situated right inside the train station which was close to the bus stop for ZAO Onsen
- again with location, very close to a large shopping centre with konbini inside
- room and bed were very comfortable with a nice view of the city”
“The owner are so friendly. Good hospitality service.”
“Close to station, easy access. Polite friendly staffs.”
“Really nice and atmothpheric hostel in a school building, i liked decorations and a good company of other travellers.”
“Big Room, comfortable beds, good variety of breakfast”
“The breakfast spread was good and we enjoyed our 4 mornings of good breakfast. It is Japanese style mixed with some western, there are juices, tea, coffee and desserts. The staff serving breakfast was very polite and neat.
What we like best is the private room Japanese dinner which we enjoyed for the 3 nights. Very exclusive and different night, different menu. On our last night our dinner was changed from 2nd floor to the 10 floor which allow us to see the night scene of this little town. I highly recommend this for family or honey moon couple. We booked 3 rooms and requested for our rooms to be next to one another and the hotel helped us with this request. The Onsen in this Ryoken was clean and comfortable both indoor and outdoor. Walking from Tendo station to here is about 15 mins. The room is super comfortable, clean, shower and WC separated, well furnished in Japanese style. If I have a chance, will return.”
“Owner very helpful and friendly!”
“Good breakfast. The day I left early the staff prepared an obento for me.
Walking distance from Denkoku no Mori.”
“strategic location”
