2nd time to onsen hotel. Each room is different in size and onsen configuration. Outdoor private onsens also highly recommended!

Perfect, great value for money, home-like service
Beautiful scenery
Breakfast and dinner, delicious
The privacy is very high, and you rarely see other guests during your stay
Can't record all, need to experience it yourself
In short, it’s great!

The Moonlight Tree is really awesome! Whether it is the reception, meals, location, room style...all are perfect! There is no situation where the photo does not match the facts! On the contrary, the view from inside and outside the room which cannot be seen in the photos is even more surprising! For a hot spring hotel, the towels are very soft and absorbent, very easy to use! You can eat in the room, which is very considerate and happy! This room has indoor and outdoor hot springs! This room is really great.

Just a perfect Osen Ryokan. Everything one expects from a high end Ryokan.
Great villa, great onsen facilities both within and outside the villa. The cave onsen was unique and simply fantastic.
Our English speaking host Firn was so friendly, helpful and attentive. She was very impressive indeed.
Our big thanks to Gekkoju@Kurokawa

The room is very comfortable, with floor heating near the bed, the service is very thoughtful, the town is very beautiful, the courtyard is lit up at night and suitable for taking pictures, the two hot spring caves can be booked at any time. The top of the mountain is more beautiful in the early morning or at dusk.

The location of the hotel is slightly inferior and you need to drive by yourself. But I felt very good after arriving. The overall quality was high-end, and the in room dining was excellent. The hotel staff were friendly and the special bath in the room was perfect.

I remember seeing a review that said, "Except for the high price, everything else is very good." Sure enough. This hotel has only eight suites (or villas with hot springs inside). Each villa has its own name and has its own characteristics. The hotel we stayed at this time was called Gongzhang. The room is very large, decorated with antique style, spotlessly clean. The privacy is extremely high. Your own suite has a dining room with a charcoal grill (you can choose to enjoy high-end Japanese cuisine here), a bathing hot spring, and a large outdoor hot spring with a rock shape (usually only seen on travel programs) ), there are small indoor hot springs for footbaths (I heard that only three of them have this facility), and there are two other hot springs in the public area outside, but each household has a private time reservation and is unique. The hotel also specially matched Chinese-speaking waiters, and the service was very good. This stay was the highlight of the trip!
