    The generosity of the hotel with many special free treats (ice creams, coffee, drinks, Raman). The breakfast and dinner was amazing but remember to book the dinner. The onsen was also great.

    We loved absolutely everything about our stay here from the reception area to the complementary Ramen to the soothing onsens and the beautiful large rooms and comfortable beds was an exceptional experience and would highly recommend to anyone going to this area to stay in this spot. Perfect for families and and there were lots of other families, staying at the same time which made us feel super comfortable with our Littles

    Clean. Amazing view of mountains and lakes. Helpful staff, fluent in English. Private onsen for us who were not comfortable with public onsen yet. Free ramen every night. Free popsicle which was great for after onsen. Food was wide spread, catered to our dietary restrictions too. just that we might not be very used to the Japanese food.

    Luxury ryokan Large room with huge traditional breakfast. The location is further than expect but they do provide shuttle bus. The Onsen is so good the private one no charge and the public one are huge and there are many baths to choose. Amenities are all well prepared. Also provide free ice cream and drinks for relaxation. The noodles on late snack is superb!
