This beautiful, well-run hotel makes you feel very special. We were greeted warmly on arrival, given peach tea and walked through the hotel’s spa protocol. Since they are currently doing work on parts of the spa (this was no problem, and there was no noise).
The onsite onsen is absolutely beautiful— a deep pond in a (part) bamboo forest, relaxing and piping hot.
The dinner and breakfast are extravagant, delicious, and gorgeously presented.
The staff is so very kind and gracious. They go far out of their way to make you feel at home. We speak no Japanese except “good morning” and the staff spoke enough English to help us in every way.
This was my first trip ever to Japan, let alone an onsen, and this hotel made it a delightful experience!
