It is a traditional hotel, stuck in the 70s. A one night experience was more than enough. The staff was really nice and very helpful.

10/10 Exceptional

This is a grand dame of a ryokan hotel next to a beautiful river with a scenic view of a suspension bridge and cliff. The hotel is very worn and in real need of a renovation, but the staff keep it as clean as they can. This is not a glamorous hotel and is definitely past its prime. However, that's not why you come here. You come to this ryokan for the hospitality, the well-maintained spa, the family activities, which are numerous (outdoor pool, manga reading room, mahjong, billiards, table tennis and karaoke) and its convenient location to the train station and the river. The buffet breakfast and dinner are delicious, the staff is very friendly and hard-working and there is an endless supply of choose-your-own yukata by the front desk. This is a quiet town and the sidewalk rolls up early as well as the activities in the hotel, which makes it a good, wholesome place for a family with young children or teens.

2/10 Poor

This place has very much seen better days. I didn't arrive in time to try their restaurants so I can't be any judge of that, but the rooms had no AC, I found an Ant twice in my room (and you know if you find one then there are MORE !), hair on my sheets, and everything had a very worn and stained look (walls, wallpaper, etc). The Onsen part wasn't too good either. A lot of the hallways had half hazard done patches from holes punched or kicked into the walls. When I talked to the staff about my room they apologized and that was it. When I left they gave me $10 vouchers for next time I visit (I WON'T !).

A great hotel, excellent ambience and surrounding environment. Staff do not communicate in English. But first time I ever feel one of the staff did something dishonorable in Japan was to cancel our booking slot for a private onsen and gave it to another. I have never encountered this in Japan before.

Great for the price!
The hotel locates next to the suspension bridge, restaurants, and small shops. The building and rooms are dated but have renovated the bathrooms and tatami matts. The buffet dinner, buffet breakfast, and all-you-can drinks (alcohol and non-alcohol) are a must. We enjoyed them. The foods were delicious, lots of options, and well prepared. There are drinks for everyone’s needs. The internet speed was fast throughout our room. The gentleman at the reception speaks English perfectly and is friendly. We definitely come back again.

Location was great. The view around the hotel was great. We enjoyed exploring around the area. The kids enjoyed the pool and the game room. The buffet was nice too. The hotel itself is very old.

We booked this hotel at the last minute for an overnight stay. Sadly I didn't read the reviews! I found this hotel to be old, in poor condition and unclean. Also the pool is drained empty for 9 months of the year, my son was very upset. Would I stay again... NO! But the property is affordable and room was large. I would suggest choosing somewhere else if this hotel meets your price point
