近くにお気に入りのレストランがあるので、夕食無しプランが利用したくてこちらを選択しました が、結果として大満足。こんな素晴らしい泉質の温泉が岩室にあったことを知りませんでした。硫黄泉が好きなら、貸切風呂の黒湯は、絶対におすすめ。露天風呂も同じ泉質らしいのですが、天候などで変化するらしく訪問した時の露天風呂は、硫黄の香りは強くしましたが、黒湯でなくて白濁した湯でした。それでも充分に良い温泉なのですが、黒湯のインパクトにはかないません。 岩盤浴よりも個人的にはより好みな薬石浴もあって、滞在中は温泉三昧させて頂きました。最高でした！ もともと大型ホテルとして有名だったホテル大橋が個人客向けにリニューアルして穂々になったので、調度品や広くて手入れされた庭園やスタッフの対応などには、歴史に裏打ちされた上質さが感じられます。 ドッグランがあったり、動物を連れたお客様が多かったのでアニマフレンドリーなお宿なのかもしれません。そのマインドのおかげなのか露天風呂によくある虫をすくうアミに添えられたも文章も生き物視点で書かれていて、ちょっとホッコリしました。 屋上の月光浴で星が見られたり、庭で日本製の花火が楽しめたり、魚の餌やりができたり、広々したロビーに無料のドリンクバーがあったり、裸足で使う館内スリッパには他の人と間違わないようにシールを貼れるようになっていたり、滞在時間を楽しめる小さな配慮が数えきれず、好感度が上がりました。 宿泊したお部屋の窓からは遮るものがない眺めも良く、また次もこちらに宿泊したいと思います。

「おもてなし」の心は老舗旅館という割にゼロです。 玄関へのお出迎えももちろんなく、車を停める場所もなく、案内もなく適当な説明。 その後、チェックインですぐそばに待っているのに研修生への説明でこちらに気づかないのはどうかと思う。 第一印象はとても大事なのに。 受付での説明も研修生で不十分。 さほど忙しくもない平日に泊まったのに。 あちこちに旅行するけど夕食時間をいきなり「１８時から」と言われ選べなかったのは初めて。 フリードリンクも説明なし。 夕食もお品書きにあるものが無かったり、料理の説明も無し。 この旅館の研修生は「アルバイト」なのでしょうね。 「バスタオル」を持ち帰るなとか、ふとんを敷く時に貴重品に気をつけろとか、従業員まで泥棒扱いでもう少し表現を考えるべき。 「eco」という表現ではなく、「経費節減」と書かれたほうがまだまし。 食事は「新潟」とありますが「ほうば焼」は岐阜「昆布締め」は富山の名物です。 すべてが「おもてなし」ではなく「この旅館の都合」と感じた。 名前を変えたのは以前から印象が良くなかったからでしょうか。 前日にあつみ温泉の老舗旅館が隅々まで心配りがあっただけにレベルの段違いの差を感じた。 料金はなぜか２０％の税金がつき、価格は同じぐらいでした。 「団体旅行」のバスもきていたので「団体旅行」などで安価にいくならいいと思います。 二度と行きたくない旅館になりました。
