The family room didn't include breakfast. It had a spacious living room and bedroom. The free parking was a bit far, but still manageable, as the staff would help drive the car to the parking lot and carry your luggage to the room. The manager then gave a very detailed explanation of the hot spring facilities (using Google Translate), which took quite a while. They said it was a hot spring where adding cold water was allowed in small quantities! I quickly realized that to enjoy the original hot spring water, they didn't add a single drop, allowing it to cool naturally to around 45 degrees Celsius. For me, that was too hot and completely unacceptable. Luckily, we added a lot of water here, and it was comfortable. Even the kids dared to come in!
I liked the friendly staff, the fact that breakfast was included, the large public bath, and the ample amenities. It's a bit far from the station, but it's not a problem for solo travelers, and it was very affordable.
The room is big enough, clean and tidy
Breakfast is Japanese style, a small pot per person, warm.
The hot spring is divided into three separate rooms, which are pure natural hot spring water in Caojin, soaking is perfect and comfortable.
The only water is too hot, to know how to operate ditch frozen water.
There is also an outdoor corridor to reach the hot spring room.
It was good! No matter what you say, it's a two-story
At the hotel, I didn't have to take the troublesome elevator, and there were few people at the front desk, so it was nice and quiet! There is a kitchen and a separate bathroom and toilet, so it's great to rent a bicycle! I will take care of you again when I travel next time.
The hotel is clean and if you contact the hostel, you will have a shuttle bus to the bus terminal when you check in and check out. Breakfast and dinner can be added, and I only added dinner, but it was a satisfactory meal for the price. There is no bathtub and shower in the room, and there are 3 chartered hot springs, which can be used freely when it is empty. There is also a 7-Eleven within a 3-minute walk
This was my first time going to Kusatsu Onsen. I had originally booked a different inn, but I changed to this one at the last minute because the reviews on other websites were very good, and breakfast was included and it was a little cheaper.
After staying here, I definitely want to stay here again next time! The following is a long story, but I hope it was helpful.
- About a 7-minute walk from the Yubatake.
The inn is uphill from the Yubatake, but for someone in their early 30s, it wasn't too hard.
Older people might get a little out of breath.
- The inn only has stairs. The rooms only have a toilet, no bathroom.
There are two private baths, and if they are available, you can bathe until 9am.
Amenities include shampoo, conditioner, body soap,
toothbrush, razor, hair band, samue, tabi socks,
bath towel, face towel
(no face wash or makeup remover)
If you are planning to go to a day trip to the hot springs,
it is recommended to bring a face towel from the inn
(be careful not to forget to take it home!)
The breakfast was so delicious and plentiful that it didn't seem like a light breakfast.
It was filling.
The building is like an old house, but it was meticulously cleaned
I was impressed.
There are few rooms and it is small, so I think it is recommended for those who want to stay with a small number of people.
There are few reviews on this site, but there are many on a certain map, so I decided to stay there.
Above all, the staff were very considerate, and I was very happy to be able to spend a quiet time even though it was close to the Yubatake.
Hotel: Right next to the train station, with a few (not many) restaurants since it's a provincial station.
Room: Not cramped, has space for luggage, clean, and modern. All amenities are provided (toothbrush, toothpaste, and other items can be picked up at the lobby).
Onsen: Located on the 1st floor, not very big (just right).
Overall: Okay.
I use it every time because the cospa is good.
It's a pity that there are only men in the public bath, but the unit bath in the room has been renovated, so it's easier to spend than before.
Saizeriya, Komeda cherry blossoms and Matsuya are nearby, and they walk a little, but there are other colors 々.
Opposite the hotel, there are about 10 free parking spaces, suitable for self-driving people, the hotel's large bath is only for men;
In addition, the lady stays, if you make an appointment to a private style, it will be good.
Breakfast is in 8/F, so the view is very good.
This onsen ryokan has a traditional, older feel to it, and the owner, an elderly gentleman, was quite easygoing. Since it's an old wooden building, the soundproofing isn't great. We could hear the conversations from the next room and footsteps in the hallway, which affected our sleep a bit. Also, for some reason, we were charged 400 JPY per person for air conditioning/heating, which wasn't disclosed on the platform beforehand.
Very Good

GGuest UserI don't know where to start. Our stay was a highlight of our trip to Japan. This area is so beautiful and calm. We had a large room in the old house, very.spacious and with comfortable beds. The onsen in the room was amazing. But the best of all was the care of the owner in preparing delicious meals for dinner and for breakfast. Very generous and prepared with such attention. Each dish has its unique flavour. We stayed three nights and were truly sad to leave. It is a different world. We went on walks and we were given a tasty picnic box. Everything was wonderful. The place can be easily reached by train to Shimonita from where the owner can pick you up. Please visit this place. You will not regret it.

GGuest UserEverything was good to be honest. Only the check out timing was written on trip.com “before 12” however the owner said “it is 10 am”. We went out in the morning and we came back before 12, the owner removed all our belongings from the to the entrance so we felt about annoyed since we could only call us to excuse us before removing our belongings by himself. Also, it is not written on the website, but the owner asked us to pay 300 yen (150 each) as taxes for using Ofuro.
GGuest UserThe place is far from the city so it’s actually pretty hard to access to this place. But the owner is really nice, she helped us with a lot of stuff, including with luggage transfer and taking us back to the train station. She also made us food because she’s worried we’re not eating enough and it’s cold.
On top of that, if you are planning to go snowboarding or skiing there is a shuttle bus near by that takes you to the Kawaba ski resort for free!
NNat_SThe location is perfect, right on the main square. But this ryokan doesn’t ready for foreign travelers, even Signboard only in Japanese. Workers doesn’t speak English also. And there is no kayseki dinner. In the room you’ll have matcha tea and beautiful tableware, traditional clothes. For breakfast you should choose time 7:30 or 8:30 and it’s so big (2 photo), but for me was very salty. There is two onsen - outside and inside on different floors.
GGuest UserBooked the Japanese style room with toilet. Shower room has to be shared on the 2nd floor. Room has no amenities at all. Basic hair dryer and hot flask are in the communal area. We had to set up the bed ourselves. Room was dusty and was freezing cold even tho there was heater from the air con on winter’s night. There’s instructions to learn how to kill the stink bugs. The hotel facilities are good but the overall experience wasn’t good.
GGuest UserThe building is old, but it is not understood that it is clean and cherished. The flowers on display were beautiful and the rice was very delicious. And the customer service was really polite, and I was often noticed that the color 々 was, and I was able to spend it with a very happy feeling that I noticed and acted before I asked. And the bath was the best.
