"Located about a 30 min walk from the bus terminal, the hotel runs a silver van shuttle every 20 minutes or so. This is a newer hotel, but has many delightful traditional elements. The whole place has a tatami mat like flooring, so shoes are left in lockers upon entering. The lobby area is built with old looking timber in the style of gasho buildings. The rooms were wonderfully done with the nice smell of tatami. The baths are wonderful with both interior and outside tubs in a variety of styles. They offer up nice extras like popsicles, free coffee after baths, and a 10:00 PM bowl of ramen, wonderful after an evening soak in the hotsprings. They have dinner and breakfast options at the hotel, but you need to order when you make your reservation, not on the spot when you arrive. We didn’t and soon found the eating options in town are limited. We did manage to find a nice yakiniku shop a 20 min walk from the hotel (call and reserve ahead when you check in) The atmosphere of the hotel is wonderful and very much in the culture of ryokan. "

"Great hotel in a great area. It is a little bit of a walk from the train station but otherwise perfectly located near everything else we wanted to see. It was our favorite stay of our trip with a very comfortable bed and laundry! I would definitely recommend and stay again. "
