Kusatsu onsen Futabaya, hotel in Kusatsu

Kusatsu onsen Futabaya offers accommodation in Kusatsu. Free private parking is available on site.

It was very comfortable, beds 10/10, they were very cosy and kept us warm and also include an electric blanket. Two of the 3 of us were from hot and sunny Qld Australia and our son brought us to Kusatsu Onsen at a time when it was very cold and snowing. It was exceptionally wonderful time to visit when it snowed. The onsens in the hotel were great as well as the ones in the park and town.

Konoha, hotel in Kusatsu

Konoha Hotel offers hot springs facilities and rooms with free internet access. It features a sake bar and a free shuttle bus to the centre of Kusatsu.

First traditional onsen ryokan experience for me and my Aussie partner. We were absolutely stunned by how elegant and detailed of food was. It was lucky that Tokyo snowed few days ago so we get to see snow covering Kusatsu. We bathed in the onsen admiring how unreal the view was with snow. Brilliant service too but the front desk can barely speak English.

Fourtreat Kusatsu, hotel in Kusatsu

Located in Kusatsu, 46 km from Jigokudani Monkey Park, Fourtreat Kusatsu provides accommodation with a restaurant, free private parking and a bar.

The hotel just cancel our booking without contact us personally, they simply email me which I had missed as it ended up in the junk box. We drove 2 hours from Nagano and when we arrived in the dark, they just leave a message at the door saying the the property is closed due water pump issue! It took us a long time to find another accommodation in Kusatsu as nearly all of them require advance booking!

Kusatsu Onsen Kusatsu Hotel1913, hotel in Kusatsu

Built in 1913, the Kusatsu Hotel exhibits the architectural style of the Japanese Taisho Era.

Good location. On a quiet spot at the end of the main street of the town and right at the entrance of the country park. We took about 15 minutes to walk from the train station. But the ryokan also provided pick up and drop off service. Our room was spacious, comfortable and spotless clean. Excellent indoor and open air bath with spring water from 2 famous origins. Must try them all. The staff who served us were very good and helpful. We loved its relaxation room which provided freshly boil coffee and foot hot spring bath.

    I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel.

    I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel. It is nestled in the mountains, a gorgeous drive from Tokyo (If you have the time, drive!) Many places to drop in for a foot soak, lots of little shops and restaurants. Prepare to wait in the busy season (which I believe is the fall and winter). This time we stayed in a traditional Japanese hotel with tatami and only futons for sleeping- being from the US, this made the trip especially fun but make sure you are ok with getting up and down from the floor. There are less people who speak English than in the major cities. But if you are comfortable pointing and smiling and trying google translate, it is a beautiful place to visit. Note that people with limited mobility may find the town difficult to navigate (steps and steep hills). Better for adults, but there is a little tropical zoo nearby and the onsen demonstration is fun.

    Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter.

    Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter. We went in February and it was snowing. Family love it so much that we’re planning to visit for next winter. A lot of private hot spring and delicious food. We had kaiseki for breakfast and dinner at our ryokan. Definitely worth the trip and ain’t too far from Tokyo. Stay a night if possible.

    If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-spring town in the mountains then, Kusatsu is the place for you. It takes a while to get there with the train and bus but if you have the time then I would recommend it. The culture surrounding hot-springs is unique to the Japanese and there is no better place to experience it. Get early there for a day trip because most buses coming down to the train station stop running around 7 PM.

    Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings.

    Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings. Great Onsen. Its best to go for relaxation purpose and take a dip in the hotsprings. The places to look out for are 1) Yubatake (center of the town) - Please do visit in the evenings as well when the lights turn ON and make it a beautiful view. 2) Sainokawara Park and Open air Onsen. This is a must visit place to spend good walk in the park and then visit Open air Onsen JR Bus station is very close to center - Yubatake. So it's just a 5mins walk and also there are round trip bus by JR to all sightseeing spots. Most of the resorts offer shuttle bus service also; so I recommend to check with your resort before booking. This really helped us. The food is next best thing in Kusatsu. However if you are Vegetarian like us you might find difficulty to find good restaurants. However, there are a couple of Italian restaurants that offer good pasta and pizza which is loaded with vegetables. One major thing to note is the Bus service from Kusatsu Bus station to Nagonahara Kusatsuguchi. The bus service is not regular; so please check it and plan your outbound trip.

    The Yubatake area is picturesque and has many nearby shops with Japanese treats you can take out and eat/drink while sitting and enjoying the ambiance of Yubatake. Lots of traditional Japanese buildings, walkable streets with shops selling souvenirs and Japanese treats. Be sure to take the 10min walk from Yubatake thru Sainokawahara Koen (Park) to the large outdoor hot spring bath Sainokawhara Rotenburo.

    The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs. I have tried various ones, Kusatsu hot springs are relaxing and the the feeling is wonderful. The food in the town is delicious, I tried Udon with Tempura in some places, it was just delicious. Don’t forget to try the onsen tamago as a speciality of the town.

    Great place to stay and enjoy an evening after having explored the town of a day at the local ski resort. The rooms are large and comfortable. We had plenty to do at the leisure area in the hotel lobby. There were even a gaming consoles to keep you busy throughout the night in hotel rooms. The owner runs a great coffee shop just down the road which hosts a very skilled barista who makes fantastic coffee just like what you would find in Australia. The hotel has three different onsens to choose from and all the necessary amenities.

    Such a beautiful hidden gem at kusatsu onsen town! Super close to everything & even though there is a road out the front it is really quiet. The host/owner, Hiromi- we loved Hiromi! He is so friendly & accommodating, free beverages is a great touch, unit was very clean & beautiful japanese interior with 3 bedrooms, one with futons on the floor japanese style, and a large double bed in the open studio area. Will definitely stay here again & highly recommend this to anyone going to kusatsu

    Food was excellent. Both breakfast and dinner were buffet with lots of variety and excellent quality. Two chefs at dinner preparing tempura and meats, they were the best very friendly real service with a smile. Beds were very comfortable. Catch a taxi from the bus station to the hotel. The hotel is an easy walk to the centre but don’t be fooled by the distance and try to haul your bags up the hill. The onsens in the town are superb.

    Kaiseki meals in elegant dining room were superb.Good English support in the dining room. Very central location. Futons were OK when double layer of 2 futons was used. Could open the window for fresh air. 30000 yen for Friday night, 39000 yen for Saturday night for 2 people including amazing meals. Room old but clean. Size comfortable but not big. Very quiet. Modest private bathroom and toilet appreciated. Quite nice hotel onsen.

    Location of the hotel is good, at the end of the Sainogawara street and right beside the entrance of Sainogawara park. It is a small hotel with only 10 guestrooms so it is very quiet and peaceful, and the onsen is usually empty. I paid 4,400yen for the dinner and will TOTALLY recommend it - such an amazing spread and experience. Miki is also super friendly and cheerful, and definitely made my stay here very very enjoyable!

    The staff was really nice and helpful even when we had some lost in translation issues. The staff accommodated us when we didn't realize we booked the shuttle for the wrong day and were very understanding. There was a little snow this time of year(Jan 1) so we got a small taste of the snow with the outdoor bath. As a first time onsen experience it was perfect.

    A Ryokan with a homely feel! The gentleman who checked us in spoke really good english and we had no issues with communication whatsoever. He made our stay especially pleasant! The onsen water at Kusatsu is also to the next level! You come with dry and rough skin and leave with silky smooth skin. Highly recommend this onsen town!

    The staff was very nice, the hotel really felt like I was in a traditional Japanese hotel. They had their own private onsen along with walking distance to many other onsens. Their game room was very fun with great options of games. My friends and I would definitely come here again.
