Private hot-spring Villa in Kusatsu

I love everything. Property was really nice, clean, comfortable. So cozy and complete with amenities. Perfect for family travellers with kids. The rooms are very spacious and have exta futons. Town center is 6min away, convenience store and supermarket is close too.

Nothing I didn't like.

What i like about this property is that it’s very spacious, clean and very comfortable.

I just hope they have big bath towels.

This place is set in a lovely green and quiet part of Kusatsu Onsen. We took the taxi up from the bus station, because we had read the hill was quite steep. The taxi was only 600 Yen and well worth it because the entire area is hilly and we would not have been able to push our heavy luggage up. We loved the quiet surroundings, the comfy beds and the spacious kitchen and kitchen table. Sitting on the patio and listening the the rustling leaves and birds was also calming. The onsen was amazing and squeaky clean, but initially very hot. We left the window open at night and it cooled down enough to have a nice soak. The place is huge and can easily fit in a group of friends or two families. There were 4 bedrooms, plus extra tatamis. The living room is spacious and I can see how this could be a great place for a weekend getaway for people looking to escape the hectic pace of Tokyo. There are 2 supermarkets in town, the best one being the one close to the bus station. The centre of Kusatsu onsen is about 10 minutes away on foot. We loved eating at the restaurants there. Some are very down to earth places that only serve a couple of dishes, others are very fancy. Kusatsu is a special place with it's outdoor foot baths, public onsens scattered round town, nature walks, temples and delicious food. Highly recommended!

There is nothing we disliked but, we would have liked to have had a couch in the living room so we could relax after a long day outdoors. There is one, but it's only tiny. I think it's for kids. Also, some outdoor furniture would be lovely. We enjoyed breakfast and pre dinner drinks on the porch, but had to take the chairs from inside. I would have given this place a 9/10, but the kitchen wasn't 100% spotless (it was not dirty- we just found some rice kernels and a few tiny traces of food along the cooker), which is something we need as we travel with children with food allergies.
