And there’s also a free private indoor hot spring that was very nice too. And I really like that the hot springs are 24/7. Meals were so good and all the staffs were so friendly and helpful.

The location of the hotel is perfect in this little town. The Onsen area are very clean and perfect to relax after the day. But the best part here were the food! We wrote the hotel just one day before we arrive if it's possible to create vegetarian meals for us. And they did a perfect job! We got the best meals we had in whole Japan and this also super spontaneously. Thanks to the whole team!

Japanese Yukata robes and toothbrush sets are provided for all guests, and some rooms come with a private hot-spring bath. Others share bathrooms, while all rooms come with a private toilet.

The beautiful location in the woods (yet close to the city, 4~ mins). The spectacular labyrinth-like structure of the whole hotel that makes you want to explore it entirely (reminded us of The Shining hotel). They even have a gamified "quest" of collecting stamps in different parts of the building to make you visit memorable spots. The surprising victorian furniture of the Karaoke room and its very friendly employees, had a great night singing and drinking in there. The size of the room.

    The private indoor hot spring was a great touch, but the open-air onsen was truly on another level. I want my wife to give birth there but the baby probably wouldn't like that, and neither would the newborn

    EVERYTHING. The dream come true in a ryokan (and affordable). I truly love the private onsen. It was bliss. The room, the yukatas, the ambience, the fact that look like is brand new construction but in a traditional aesthetic. A dream.

    This 93 year old ryoakn was an experience we will never forget! Surrounded by breathtaking nature on the outskirts of Gero, this ryokan provides a very authentic Japanese onsen experience. It was a joy to bathe in the thermal waters in the private bath in our room, as well as the public indoor and outdoor baths. The view from the room was amazing. We booked a traditional Japanese-style tatami room, and it was spacious, with a balcony, and mentioned private bath, an awesome experience.
