7 / 10Good·Oct 2026
Came for the mixed onsen and that one sure was excellent. It’s beautifully located, in nature, with a view on the river. Be aware that you have to rent bathing clothes, even if you have brought your own (couple 100 yen so not much of a problem for us). Other non-mixed and private onsen options available. Tattoos must be covered. Staff was attentive and English OK. Breakfast was great too. Mostly Japanese visitors.
We have very mixed feelings about this hotel. We liked the authentic feeling. Yes, it’s a bit worn down but that did not really matter to us as it added to the experience. However, the room smelled like urine upon arrival (we were switched upon request) and the dinner did not live up to the expectations. Mostly the textures were a bit too much for us. Normally we like all exotic foods, so we were very surprised by this. If you’re keen on a mixed onsen experience we would recommend, but would definitely skip dinner. We suspect better quality and priced hotels are in this area.

The views from bedroom we went Japanese style - breakfast and dinner staff were exceptionally nice. The onsen is fab - the food is exquisite. Near the cable car. The fish outside
Parts of hotel look dated and bit grubby but it’s also part of its appeal

We appreciated the authentic atmosphere of the hotel. The rooms were spacious and the onsite onsens were excellent. The complimentary shuttle service to the ropeway was also very convenient.
We were surprised by the additional onsen tax and room tax that had to be paid on departure. The location can also be inconvenient without a car, as buses to supermarkets and restaurants are expensive. The biggest letdown was the food which comes at a premium price. The quality was poor, particularly for longer stays. The vegetarian dinner menu became repetitive very quickly and consisted mainly of multiple tofu dishes with very little flavour. I’d expect more given there isn’t any other options within walking distance. Breakfast was also underwhelming and lacked flavour. In addition, the beds were quite uncomfortable, however I think this is common for Japan.
