The free private onsen was a treat. The shared ones as well, we loved being outside. The kaiseki dinner was memorably excellent.

Just be aware that rooms don't have a shower, so you need to be comfortable with the onsen

- the staff were friendly, sincere and helpful - the food was excellent!!! appreciate half of the dishes!!! the egg with lemon peel, the fresh and sweet sashimi, the beef, the dessert... I couldn't help to tell the staff how much I liked the dishes and asked him to share my appreciation and happiness to the chef - the private onsen was a bonus - the washer

"A great experience - great dinner and private onsen."

8.0

The private onsen, a great experience!

The location is a bit far off from other parts of the same town and onsen clusters, especially for those hiking.

"An experience"

8.0

The location is good and the pre set meal was an experience and very well executed. The onsens were relaxing after lots of walking .

All very archaic ! Felt like something from Fawlty Towers on steroids ! See for yourself but I think rather overpriced
