Accommodation using the neighborhood prefectural discount. Because it was just before, I couldn't get a room with a rock bath, but the standard Japanese-style room is spacious and clean. The sunken kotatsu by the window is also elegant, and I can't stop delusional that it is the best in the season when it snows. Also, the yukata is crispy and doesn't stick to my skin, so I'm not good at it, but it's very soft to the touch and the pattern is modern and nice. It is good that the obi cord is easy to use. I was also impressed by the towels with embroidered mimosas, instead of the towels with the so-called name of the inn. Speaking of which, I think it would be convenient if there was a small basket bag when heading to the hot springs. When entering the hot spring, there is no basket in places like dehydration places, so I want it all the more. The food was also very delicious, and I couldn't stop being excited before eating the seasonal dishes. You can even enjoy dessert, and the salt-grilled sweetfish steamed with hot spring water was exquisite. For dinner and breakfast, when the seats are ready, the front desk will call you and each group will take the elevator to the venue. On the other hand, I often see families with bad manners and small children talking and making noise without masks (running around, parents not paying attention), etc., and I feel sorry that customers can't choose. I feel annoyed with it. If possible, I would appreciate it if you could take measures such as separating the room from customers with children. When I returned from dinner, I found a fluffy futon and pajamas, and a dream bag with lavender wrapped near the futon. Such thoughtfulness is very kind, and I feel that it is a consideration that makes me want to visit again. I would like to improve because the indoor wifi is broken. I think. I can't stop being impressed... Breakfast was also very delicious. Tomato smoothies and dishes made with lots of Gunma vegetables. Exquisite teamwork of waitpersons and cooks. The dessert acai pudding has three layers, and it may be the first time I've ever had an elaborate dessert in the morning. (I often make jellies and puddings, but it takes a surprisingly long time to make three layers.) After that, coffee, tea, and organic rooibos are served in the lounge. There are also iced coffee and iced tea services, and the fact that they use trans-fatty acid-free milk is also a great point. It has become one of the inns that I definitely want to stay next time or visit with my parents.

I've been here for the fourth time. The open-air bath between the mountains and the sky is the real thing. I can't see the artifacts when I soak in the hot water, so I'm satisfied that this is a mountain hot spring. It seems that the hot water is changed every day, so the hot water is like clear mountain stream water. You can soak in lukewarm water for about 30 minutes. It's really quite lukewarm, so who likes heat? maybe. Also, as other people have written, the men's open-air bath is not crowded no matter when you go. It may depend on the time of day, but there are always about 2-3 people. If you choose the time, there is also a charter state. My companion said that the women's open-air bath can get crowded. It seems that women should check in early and enjoy the open-air bath. I stayed in a room with an outdoor rock bath (strictly speaking, it's hard to call it an open-air bath), which is also nice. The room outdoor is the warmest. It's big enough for two people. And for some reason, it is comfortable to sit in, and it is a bath where you can soak slowly while being enchanted by the Tanigawa mountain range in front of you. I wrote only the bath, but the food is delicious (although it's pricey), and the employees are more natural and pleasant. I feel that cospa is also good. I want to visit again this time.

Located on the outskirts of the hot spring town. As a result, I was able to quietly enjoy the open-air bath in my room as if the green mountains were approaching from outside the window. It's an old ryokan, but it's well-maintained, and there was nothing to worry about.

I stayed in a general room without an open-air bath in the midst of autumn leaves. The view from the room overlooking Mt. Tanigawa between the autumn leaves was wonderful. Even though the room didn't have a bath, it was spacious and beautiful. The public bath seemed to be almost full, probably because many people used the bath in the guest room, and the time it was crowded was limited, but I was able to relax a lot during the reserved time. As expected, the hot springs were flowing directly from the source, and the whole bath was lukewarm (especially the open-air bath), but there are many seats suitable for half-body bathing, including the indoor bath, so you can't help but take a long bath. It warmed me to the core and kept me warm for hours after I left. The morning and evening meals were mainly made with local ingredients for local consumption. Compared to ryokan in the same price range, I felt that it was a little lackluster, but I thought that I was simply becoming extravagant. The waitresses were all familiar with us and were kind to us. I will work hard so that I can revisit to enjoy the superb view and hot water again.

Visited for the first time in several years. It snowed all the time we stayed for 2 nights and 3 days, and we enjoyed the moist Yukimi Onsen. The building and facilities are undeniably old, but the quality of the hot springs was as satisfying as usual.
