Onsen is beautiful. Staff are attentive and kind. Location is great if you’re keen to do alpine hikes from the ropeway (or go up the ropeway).

Cons:

Rooms are a bit basic but fine.

Soggiorno favoloso, bellissimo hotel nelle Alpi giapponesi. Un’oasi di benessere.
Pros:

Tutto fantastico, stanza giapponese eccezionale e spaziosa, atmosfera magica e super tradizionale, cibo (cena e colazione) magnifici, onsen nell’hotel (separato per genere) e all’aperto vicino al fiume (misto). I gestori dell’hotel sono gentilissimi e si vede che portano avanti questo lavoro con gran passione da anni.

Cons:

Tutto bellissimo e ben organizzato

Wouldn’t stay agian , regret the money spent
Pros:

Nothing particularly wrong but for the price you pay you expect a lot more. We were charged at the end of our stay for use of onsens weather we used them or not each day. I understand it’s in the mountains and will be more pricey but have stayed lots of places in the mountains in Japan for cheaper and better services.
