Find3-Star Hotels in Gero

The hotel is very close to the JR station, within a 5-minute walk. The hotel is very Japanese, and you need to take off your shoes to enter the lobby. The hotel will communicate with you in advance, and you need to check in before 6 o'clock to prepare dinner. Because the day of check-in happened to be my son's birthday, I also communicated with the hotel in advance and booked a cake. When the cake was delivered, there was a birthday ceremony, which was quite a surprise. There is a hot spring on the first floor of the hotel, both indoors and outdoors. It feels very good to soak in the hot spring outdoors in the snow. But I understand that you can only check in after 3 o'clock, but it feels uncomfortable that you can't even sit in the lobby before 3 o'clock. In addition, it may be a more historical hot spring hotel. The hot spring facilities are average, the outdoor soup is relatively small, and the place to change clothes feels a bit cold. But the advantage is that the hot spring water is really good, and it feels slippery after soaking. Another thing is that checking out at 10 am feels a bit early. Another thing is that I may be uninformed. The private bath written on the reservation is just a small bathtub 😅 But the overall feeling is still good

Very satisfied with the room! There are only two showers in the open-air hot spring, and only shampoo and conditioner are provided. The rest of the makeup remover and facial cleanser are provided by yourself. The next day, I basically reserved the open-air hot spring and felt very comfortable soaking in the drizzle. I didn't go to the indoor hot spring! The hotel is very winding and you have to carry your suitcase a long way. There are stairs in the middle, and then take the elevator, and then walk up the inner stairs and take the elevator to get to the room! People with large suitcases should consider carefully. There is no place to put the suitcase in the free shuttle bus, so you have to carry it yourself. Fortunately, there are not many people and it is squeezed in the aisle. The 28-inch suitcase is just stuck in it

The hotel is settled in the middle of Gero Hot Spring town, short walk from the train station and can also be reached via bus from Kamikochi area. The hotel itself is very clean and well maintained. You can feel the spirit of older times in this hotel with a lot of beautifully selected decoration pieces. The manager showed us around and even offered us a new room since I accidentally booked one without shower (we declined that offer since we only wanted to stay for one night). That’s why we used the Onsen area for showering which is beautiful and includes all amenities. View above Gero and including an outside Onsen area to watch the sunrise. The staff was very friendly, the manager even drove us to the bus station since we forgot our jackets in the bus. The bar is well-equipped and a great place for a drink or two. One of the best parts was the breakfast. Never had such a good Japanese breakfast before- delicious, served in a private room, beautifully arranged. Next time we want to try their dinner :-) We felt like family and I can recommend anyone going to Gero to stay at this great hotel! Thanks again for your hospitality!

The overall experience was very satisfactory, and the Mandarin-speaking waiter arranged for us from Hong Kong and the communication was smooth. There is no shuttle bus at the location, but it takes more than ten minutes to walk from the JR station. If the luggage is not heavy, it is not too far. The hotel is beautiful, there is a letter shop at the beginning, and there is a foot bath hot spring pool. The seventh floor is a separate hot spring pool for men and women, with an open-air pool. The male soup faces the direction of the station and sees different scenery sooner or later. The female soup is very private, but there is no scenery. It seems that you can order private baths for men and women, but we have no time to try this time. The room is large, you can choose to make a bed, there is no problem for four people, but this time it is only my girlfriend and I. The view of the stream outside the room is particularly beautiful at night, but it is very light in the morning. It is recommended to bring your own blindfold to sleep later. There are special activities on Saturday, there are many performances and stalls, very atmospheric. Finally, meals, breakfast and dinner can not be missed, you can enjoy at a few designated times. We stayed for two nights, two days have different menus, the dishes have signature flying yak and fish raw, but the cooking method is different, very pleasant, it is recommended that two nights do not need to transfer to the hotel.

Experienced the best satisfaction at a ryokan and not expensive price. The building is old and old, but it was well maintained and clean, and unlike the appearance, the interior was quite spacious. The owner's family were very friendly and provided the best service and meals. The hot springs are small too, but the water is very good, clean. It's a place I definitely want to visit again later. Thank you! :)

The shaking of the elevator 🛗 spills the cup of coffee. I felt very dangerous. Welcome drinks were very good. The service of Oden 🍢 and Ramen 🍜 is the best. The private open-air bath was not good, but the underground bath was good. For dinner, grilled meat on a pottery plate 🥩 Hobamiso is delicious. Free alcohol drinks were also good. The water splitting of the sub-flowing water in Hida was the most fun. At breakfast, Orange 🍊 was very sweet and delicious. I wish I had ice cream. In terms of price, I will give you a passing score. In addition, please provide customer service. I would like to use it again. Fireworks 🎇 also looked a little!

There is a hot spring. It is a time-honored brand. So it is indeed old. The service is not bad. I asked where to eat, but I couldn’t communicate with the language. The front desk uncle led me out of the hotel and pointed me to the intersection. It is a bit far to walk to JR.

A very recommended homestay, the owner is Japanese and can speak Chinese. There is also a Chinese girl at the front desk, so communication is barrier-free. There is a private bath with a time period of your choice, so you can enjoy your private space alone.

Akakabu fut une fantastique découverte! Nous arrivons dans une magnifique demeure entièrement détruite dans une autre région et reconstruite pièce par pièce à son emplacement actuel, dont les propriétaires éprouvent une immense fierté. Nous sommes accueillis par une famille dynamique, joyeuse, ouverte et généreuse, aimant accueillir et offrir le meilleur à leurs invités. Passée une belle réception, s’ouvre un salon avec le foyer traditionnel au centre. Les chambres sont très belles, spacieuses, dans lesquelles nous préparons et rangeons nous-mêmes nos futons comme de coutume dans un Minshuku. Les Yukatas à disposition sont beaux et confortables et une couche épaisse peut être mise par dessus par temps froid. A peine arrivés, nous avons été invités à nous baigner et à profiter des bains en couple, moyennant de mettre un petit panneau indiquant que nous prenons un bain en famille, si charmant. Les salles de bains sont magnifiques, toute de bois de cèdre, avec une vaste baignoire en métal. Il y a également la possibilité d’y faire une lessive, très appréciable pour un voyage backpack. Tout est propre et sent bon. Le lieu invite volontiers à des rencontres avec les autres convives. L’esprit ouvert des hôtes est communicatif et rend chaque instant unique et ouvre au partage. Tout est fait pour se sentir chez soi, en famille ou entre amis. Les repas offerts sont copieux et délicieux. Nous avons eu droit à une shabu shabu variée et de nombreux petits plats autour, tous préparés avec le plus grand soin et des ingrédients de qualité. Le petit déjeuner n’était pas en reste, copieux et savoureux. De plus, vin, bières et surtout sakés régionaux d’excellente qualité sont offerts à prix très doux pour parfaire la visite gustative. Après le repas, nous avons été invités à une démonstration / initiation de pliage et découpe de papier dont le propriétaire des lieux est expert depuis 41 ans, le tout amené avec humour dans des conversations riches et ouvertes. Ce lieu mériterait un roman complet mais nous nous arrêterons là. Pour faire bref, nous avons adoré et Akakabu se trouve en très bonne place sur nos carnets de voyages pour y retourner dès que nous en aurons l’occasion! Mille mercis pour tout!
