Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a great location that’s very convenient, especially being close to the Hirayu onsen bus terminal. The rooms are clean and spacious, making it a comfortable stay. The staff went out of their way to be helpful, which I really appreciated. However, the dining options could be improved, as I found some dishes to be too sour for my taste.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, allowing for a great night’s sleep. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made a big difference in my experience. However, the location was a bit isolated with limited options for dining outside the hotel. Overall, it’s a good value for the money, especially considering the overall cleanliness and comfort of the place.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with its nice traditional Japanese-style room and great location near the bus station. The staff were really friendly and helpful, which made my experience even better. However, I did notice some tired-looking stains on the walls and doors, which detracted a bit from the overall feel. Despite that, I still found good value for the price I paid.
My stay was quite pleasant overall. The hotel is conveniently located just a quick walk from the bus terminal, making it easy for travel. The staff were incredibly friendly, which added to the experience. However, while the rooms were spacious and clean, the dining could use some improvement, especially in the breakfast department. The facilities were decent, but nothing overly impressive.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located near the Hirayu onsen bus terminal and offers easy access to the ski grounds around Hirayu. The rooms were spacious and tidy, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Dining was a highlight with a variety of delicious local dishes, though I found the beef curry a bit too sour for my taste. Overall, it was a great value for money with a few minor areas for improvement.
