My partner and I, from Canada, stayed for one night in November. We loved our large room, with a nice stone bathtub, and a beautiful view of the mountains & the leaves starting to change. We got the 1/2 board with kobe beef, and thought the food and service were excellent. The private bath was lovely, and so was the outdoor onsen. The onsen is open all night, which is good because I feel like this ryokan is a family-focused hotel (when we were at breakfast we were the only table without a baby). Another guest told me that when they visited the onsen there were LOTS of kids playing, which is cute and we love children
 but perhaps not the most relaxing experience lol. So we were very happy to learn that the onsen is open all night long. This is an older hotel, some of the features looked a little dated, but we didn’t mind at all. Overall, we loved the experience and would return. Keep in mind that this is definitely a family focussed hotel, and it is located up a steep hill. The hotel offers free shuttles to and from the train station.

Great hotel for family with children
We stayed at the hotel as a family of 5 adults plus 1 infant. The hotel was as described on the website with baby-friendly amenities and quiet environment. The staffs were friendly and nice to kids. The food was amazingly good but it has a little portion of many different dishes so all of us weren't able to finish (sadly). The onsen was perfect for all of us to relax after a long day travel.

Family-oriented onsen with wonderful service
My gf and I spent the night and had a great time. The staff was super friendly and helpful - the manager even came down to the train station (unasked) with something we'd forgotten! We were there in sakura season, which was beautiful - it's also apparently beautiful in maple season. Baths were nice and we also booked the private bath (not onsen) for an extra „2000 which was lovely. It's a little outside of the main town, but there's a shuttle that runs in the evening and they gave us a ride to the train when we left - probably would have picked us up if we'd called when we arrived. Overall, a lovely older onsen ryokan with lots of young families staying there. (They have a playroom, arcade, etc.)

The hotel was located up on the top of the hill, and takes about 15 minutes to walk to town.They have golden hot spring which we liked but we did not get a chance to enjoy as it was only gender specific and nude only. You could rent the private room, but it's just a hot tub, it's not hot springs water. The staff were nice and they do speak English which was quite helpful. They served a breakfast buffet right before we checked out, food was decent. Our room had a good view, could have imagine how nice it would be if the cherry blossom had opened up. Bathroom was big and stone tub was good for a nice hot bath. I was looking for more for the price we paid for, but overall, we had a decent stay.

Outstanding service where everyone welcomes you
The service here was outstanding. Everyone was helpful and went beyond their duty to help you and make you feel welcome. However if you don't sign up for breakfast and dinner, no close places to eat. The staff did drive us to dinner and pickup us up though. A little inconvenient, but went to one of the best restaurant we've been to on this two week trip.
