One night was definitely not enough! Clean room, great amenities, a wide variety of delicious buffet options, and three relaxing hot springs. I did notice a comment about one of the baths, which I understand, but the water quality was still excellent and very soothing. Special thanks to Mr. Kakumoto for his friendliness and exceptional service truly went above and beyond!! I'll definitely stay here again when I'm back in town.

We enjoyed our stay. Great staff and service. Very clean and a good dinner buffet. The hotel is a bit of a hike uphill. Google maps might tell you to approach from the right, go behind the hotel and come around to the entrance. This route has a bunch of uneven steps and is somewhat steep. It’s better to approach from the left side up a paved road with an even incline.

Pleasure stay

Hotel has been renovated, the rate included breakfast and dinner and surprisingly the quality of food is good. 3 Onsen are quite small but doesn’t matter. Hotel guests can visit other 2 sister hotels onsen for free. Impressed by the restaurant staff, they are very attentive and keep the place clean and tidy, they have a good time, thank you!

Good buffet but no shuttle to the bus station

Property is about 10 mins walk from the Bus station and Hotel does not provide shuttle to and fro, hence it is inconvenient to pull fhe luggage during winter time to the hotel. The back door of the hotel helps for quick access to the Yubate. Morning and Dinner buffet offer a very good spread but there is no need to book half board for more than 1 night as menus are largely the same.

Not recommended for long stay

Stayed 5 nights with half board, delicious food with many food choices but 95% same food every meal, not recommend for long stay guess. Awful onsen facilities, small locker, and limited space both in changing room and shower room. Provides free ramen for night food, no free drink in common area.

The walk to the hotel from the Kusatsu bus station is not a mere 8-10mins or so, esp with luggage in tow and that it’s a bit steep to get to this hotel. Definitely not for older folks!! Didnt like that we also couldnt prearrange for taxi service ahead of time on our way back to Tokyo as we did not want to catch the bus again. One staff seemed a bit uncertain and hesitant about it, so left a bit disappointed. Food was wonderful though, for both breakfast and dinner. The use the local ingredients in season and each dish was incredibly tasty! The 3 onsens on the property were wonderful and thoroughly enjoyed!

Impeccable!

I was surprised with how new the hotel and the facilities are. We stayed in the ‘East Building’ the room is very neat and well heated. The hotel has 3 onsen baths which were all of very high standard. The breakfast and dinner were amazing, a good selection of Japanese food like tempura, gyodon, but international menu was available, with salads, pasta etc. It also had a white chocolate fountain which was quite fun. The hotel has a backdoor which leads to the Yabetake with a short 5 min walk. The yukata can be borrowed from the lobby and umbrellas are available for going outside. There is also late night ramen, but only served for a small window of time at night, and unfortunately we were not able to try.

Overall, it was supposed to be a nice place with onsens inside. The water composition is really good. Breakfast and dinner also contain a variety of healthy food. However, the hotel reeked of cigarette smoke. It's disgusting! If you are such idiots that you put a smoking room right in front of the health pools, then take care to make a good exhaust hood and doors that will not let this disgusting smell through! We felt this stench on the entire floor, in the onsens and even in our room. Although we made a request for a non-smoking room. Also in this app I paid for all sorts of additional taxes, but upon checkout we were presented with another additional bill, saying that it was a tax for the onsens. Not a word was said about this either in the hotel description or upon check-in. Total disgusting.

朝夕のビュッフェの食事がとても美味しく、料理、飲み物、デザートもバラエティーに富んでいて品数豊富だった。ソフトクリームも美味しかった。食べ物は外れがなく、どの世代でも満足出来るし素晴らしいと思う。夜の担々麺などのラーメンのサービスも良かったが、夕食が美味しくて食べ過ぎたため、食べられなかったのが残念。次は食べたい。卓球、ビリヤードなど、遊びが充実したホテルを探していたため、子供を含む家族旅行には嬉しい。2.3分歩けば湯畑に着く距離感と立地が程良い。他の旅館などが立ち並ぶ坂の小路を歩くのは風情があって、歩くのに丁度良く、温泉地ならではの景色が楽しめた。肌がスベスベして、温泉の効能も感じられる温泉。フロントの方の接客対応はとても感じ良かった。 今回は古い方の別館に宿泊したが、次は本館の方に泊まりたいと思っている。 自販機もたくさんあって助かった。 温泉で、脱いだスリッパが自分のだと区別出来るように番号付のクリップがあるのは誰かに履かれてしまう心配もなくて、とても良いと思う。
