I stayed at Tokiwasure-no-Yado Yoshimoto for two nights in December 2023. Everything was impeccable - the service, the room, the onsen and the staff were all lovely. Much thought and care has gone into the elaborate, exquisitely plated kaiseki breakfasts and dinners and each room has all the comforts and amenities a luxury onsen getaway could ask for. Even better, this ryokan did not discriminate against me as a solo traveller and allowed me to stay in the main building in a spacious and luxurious room with its own private onsen. There is a separate area in each room with a private bath for changing, cosmetics and drying one’s hair which I found highly convenient and made good use of during my stay. The private onsen attached to my room was comfortable, overlooking the lush green forest and hillside where the ryokan is situated. I will definitely be stopping by Shima Onsen again and Tokiwasure no Yado Yoshimoto will be my accommodation of choice.

This was my first time using this service, but I have become a fan due to their wonderful service. I stayed in a room along the river, and it was spacious, clean, and a great place to truly relax. I was able to use the bath by myself and it was relaxing, and even after just soaking in the bath for about 10 minutes, my body felt warm and warm from the quality of the spring water long after I got out. The food used local ingredients, looked and tasted great, and was served to perfection. I felt that the hospitality and service provided by all the employees made me feel more comfortable than anything else. I chose this inn because I was exhausted from work and wanted to go to a hot spring, but it turned out to be a really relaxing trip. From now on, I would like to visit every year as my family's regular accommodation.

First of all, when I arrived at the ryokan, they carried my luggage and guided me to my room, which made me feel comfortable. Immediately after arriving, I entered the large public bath (men and women change around 22:30) the next morning, but there were few people and I was able to soak comfortably. The temperature was just right for my shoulders. In the open-air bath, you could hear the sound of the river in front of the inn. For dinner, the focus was on rare ingredients such as river fish and duck, which were not heavy. There was no habit and it was just the right amount for a small eater like me. The rice cooked in the pot was delicious. Everyone at the inn was nice. The points pointed out in other word of mouth have been improved, and there was no particular dissatisfaction. I would like to come again.

Sawatari Onsen is known as Kusatsu no Naoshiyu. After enjoying a day trip bath at Kusatsu Onsen, I was taken care of by Mr. Ryumeikan. The exterior is full of the feeling that you have returned to the countryside. The landlady was friendly and the staff were cheerful at the homely and cozy inn. Among them, the volume of dinner was not half-finished. It is certain that the stomach will die of anger when licking. It seems that my stomach was happy to eat a lot of delicious food. The most troublesome thing was the bath. The temperature was hot and hot, so I had a lot of trouble getting in. Is it the point of strategy to increase the amount of hot water? Sawatari Onsen, which is said to be a famous hot spring. There was hot water and the skin felt smooth after that. Since the hot water temperature is high, it may be more pleasant to use it in cold seasons.
