Mountain view Hotels in Gero

It’s a small Onsen with few rooms but that made our stay more relaxing and comfortable. Attentive services with an eagerness to explain everything to you despite the language barrier. The outdoor private Onsen was a plus that we enjoyed very much. The downside was the aged room and toilet we got. However, this was compensated by the food that was absolutely fantastic and unsuspectly filling 😋

This was my second stay, and the experience was just as great. The room was clean and comfortable. They have staff who speak Chinese, and they were very attentive, recommending nearby hot springs and restaurants. The owner also speaks a little Chinese. The simple breakfast was fantastic, and the hot soup was delicious! You can leave your luggage at the 1F lobby during check-in or check-out, and they can also arrange a taxi for you. Highly recommended!

Traveling with family, we booked three rooms and experienced two different room types. All the rooms were spacious and clean. The Japanese-style room had a charmingly small door. The mountain-view private onsen room had a translucent door, and the large window next to the private onsen had no curtains, which felt like a lack of privacy. Besides the onsen, the hotel also offers billiards, table tennis, and karaoke. The staff were all very enthusiastic, and breakfast was quite refined. There's a free shuttle bus to and from the station during the day. Overall, it was a pretty good stay.

+ : beautiful, traditional Japanese hotel with nice tatami rooms. The room was spacious and confortable with all necessary amenities. The outdoor onsen was great and almost empty when I went. The breakfast buffet is ok. - : a LOT of stairs in the building (very difficult for elderly and disabled people, but also people with big suitcases!). There is a car that theoretically can pick you up at the train station or drop you off but I couldn’t use it when I arrived because I received no information on it beforehand or when I left because it only starts at 10am. The onsen is not tattoo friendly and you have to pay for the tattoo cover. Staff was kind but most of the time unable to offer solutions Overall, a beautiful ryokan but for the price, you can find better.

The standard room with breakfast and dinner is set. The room is facing the open-air hot spring. The hotel is located less than halfway up the mountain next to the hot spring museum. It is convenient to buy things in the shops around.

You can reserve the room for yourself the next day. The water is hot because it is hot spring water. It is reasonably priced for a famous hot spring area. The location is also great as it is close to the station.
