Amazing place

This was an amazing experience and probably the highlight of our japan trip. The staff is just incredibly attentive. Don’t think we’ve experienced this anywhere in the world. I truly recommend this place for a relaxing few days. The private onsens are also amazing and super easy to book and use.

Really wonderful hotel with private natural osen (in the suite we had). The public osen was also very nice with all the amenities. Dinner and breakfast was served very much like a 5star restaurant, but very traditional Japanese so that is something you have to like. The hotel is very old, boasting as one of the oldest, so it’s pretty authentic so is a bit musty in the common areas. However our room didn’t smell musty and was very clean and felt new. We loved the natural Osen. Would visit again - it definitely felt like a retreat…very peaceful.

The stay was super amazing from the get go. The hotel staff being the limelight, from when we entered the hotel till we exited, they were nothing less than fantastic, polite, efficient and courteous. In terms of the property itself, really amazing rooms, you can book your own private onsen, dinner and breakfast are included and they were very adjusting of our dietary restrictions (including vegetarian). We didn't even notice how the day went by and our stay finished. I will highly recommend it to anyone.

Amazing experience

From the check in to check out the entire experience was wonderful. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the facilities are excellent. The room was very big and traditional, and the private onsen was relaxing and always available (we used it twice). Dinner and breakfast was also very traditional and a fun change from ramen, sushi, etc. The grounds are very well maintained and photogenic. Is definitely worth the trip to stay here and it’s way to find using the bus from Odawara Station.
