Amagawaso

The facilities have a sense of history, but they are well-maintained and don't bother me at all. The food was more than worth the price and I was very satisfied. The location is a little far from the center, but it's only a 10-minute walk, so it's not a problem. On the contrary, it's a relaxing place and parking is easy, so I'm satisfied. The indoor hot spring can be used all day, and the open-air bath can be rented privately at no extra charge. I would like to stay again if I have the facility.

Great onsen and the lady was very friendly!

A hot spring inn located across the bridge over Onsenji in Shibu Onsen. Although the building itself is old, it is well-maintained. The proprietress who greeted us (she looks like Mitsuko Kusafue!!) was very friendly, and gave us recommendations for hot springs around the area and Yudanaka Station, and then we checked into our room. The room has an indoor bath/toilet and is very spacious with a feeling of openness. The bath is quite hot and you can't take it for a long time, but once you get in it, you'll get rid of your fatigue at once. The time for the private open-air bath is specified at check-in, but you can enjoy it at a slightly warmer temperature. And the long-awaited dinner! It was prepared in a private banquet hall, and following the appetizers, sashimi, salad, etc. that had been set earlier, Shingen rolls, gratin, beef shabu, etc. were served and ordered together. It went well with the wine. If I had to say, I would have liked the wine to be dry. However, the food was as good as the reputation, and I enjoyed it with the most delicious dishes using elaborate local products. The soba at the end of the meal was handmade by the owner, and it was another big hit after a long time! This was also elaborate and the rice was cooked to the desired hardness. As previously mentioned, the food and baths are very good, and I will stay again when I come to Shibu Onsen!! Amagawa-so,located across bridge from the Onsen-ji in Shibu-Onsen, to enjoy the food and baths mentioned in prior reviews. Building is well-maintained despite its age, and the nostalgia of visiting a relative or grandparent's house in the countryside is palpable. Okami-san who greeted us (looks like Mitsuko Kusabue!) was very friendly. us some recommendations for places in the surrounding Onsen-area, and then we checked into room. The room was very spacious and open with an indoor bath and toilet. The bath is quite hot and you can't stay in it for a long time , but it will take away my fatigue at once.The private Roten-Buro can be reserved at the time of check-in, but this one is slightly warmer and can be enjoyed in a relaxed manner.And the long-awaited dinner! the appetizers/sashimi/salad, etc. that had been prepared earlier, Shingen-maki, Gratin, Gyu-shabu, etc. were served, and they went well with the wine we had ordered together. have preferred a drier wine.... However, the food was as good as the reputation of the restaurant, and we enjoyed the most delicious dishes using elaborate local products. It was both chewy and fragrant! The next day's breakfast consisted of grilled salmon, hot eggs, potato salad, tofu, etc. The rice was cooked just the way I like it, and the consistency was just right. The food and bath were as good as the previous reviews, and we will stay there again when we come to Shibu Onsen!
