The facility was amazing with private outdoor onsen that was relaxing especially in a chilly weather. Everything was clean, and there were lots of amenities. Most importantly the breakfast and the dinner (Japanese traditional course meal) that’s included is superb. Also the town is famous for the 365 steps filled with cute stores and restaurants, and has a great udon restaurant that is famous to the locals.

We traveled here from Tokyo and it took us about 4 hours using public transit with about 4-5 transfers which included train and bus. We used google maps which led us to the opposite side of the hotel building and we couldn’t figure out where to go until some friendly truck driver came help us and called the hotel’s front desk to pick us up. 15m later we were picked up from the back of the building. The staff and facilities were wonderful but it’s truly in the middle of nowhere and hard to get to if you don’t have a car. Dinner and breakfast was exquisite.
