Nakanojo Homestays

I stayed at a mountain lodge. From the main building, we took a maze of hallways, stairs, and elevators to check out at the front desk of Kashotei. My mother, who is elderly and healthy, was able to climb the stairs, but I think it would be good if this information was mentioned on the website. Maybe if I had told them I couldn't go up, they would have given me a ride to the front desk. Arriving at your room while getting lost is like a game and it's fun. The room is retro from the Showa era, but it's not a problem because the workmanship is beautiful, it's barrier-free, and the plumbing has been beautifully renovated. Is it just when you are using the washroom in another room? I was surprised to hear that the water pipes in the bathroom were making a gurgling noise. There will be no gushing. It was a matsutake course dinner. The plum and kelp soup that came first was surprisingly sweet. I was told that the grilled matsutake mushrooms would be served with ponzu sauce, but the salt and sudachi were delicious, so I ate them with the salt and sudachi that came with the tempura. The Joshu beef with sashimi was not made by young people, so I felt it was a bit boring. I want to grill it on a wire rack to remove the oil. I was told to grill it on an iron plate and use butter, which was a bit too much. Wouldn't it be better to bake this in the kitchen and have it served to you? There was a lot of food overall, and I think it was delicious, but there were some things that bothered me. I asked for coffee for breakfast the next morning, but was it too weak? It was a very weak coffee. The staff are all very nice and seem to be well trained.

This was my first time using this service, but I have become a fan due to their wonderful service. I stayed in a room along the river, and it was spacious, clean, and a great place to truly relax. I was able to use the bath by myself and it was relaxing, and even after just soaking in the bath for about 10 minutes, my body felt warm and warm from the quality of the spring water long after I got out. The food used local ingredients, looked and tasted great, and was served to perfection. I felt that the hospitality and service provided by all the employees made me feel more comfortable than anything else. I chose this inn because I was exhausted from work and wanted to go to a hot spring, but it turned out to be a really relaxing trip. From now on, I would like to visit every year as my family's regular accommodation.

We spent two nights in the Hana room, with the private onsen on our balcony. The onsen was incredible! Hot! (we had to cool it down periodically with the cold showerhead, or have a cold shower and jump back in, which felt wonderful!) Walked up to the lake - a bit of a hike at 1 hour 20 minutes uphill each way! It’s pretty, but personally the incredible blue of the river is way more beautiful! If you walk into town you will pass deeper sections of the river which, especially in the afternoon, go an incredible shade of blue that my eyes could not believe! The beds in the room are on the firmer side, though still comfortable. We had to connect the tv to the internet using Google translate, it would have been nice if it was already connected for us. The food - lots of attention to detail, beautifully presented, and so many tiny bowls for each meal! It was a little on the bland side for us, but I understand that’s the style, and it made for a bit of a detox. We were certainly full at the end of each meal! Unfortunately the town is pretty much closed on Tuesdays so there was nowhere we could go for lunch. Lucky we had snacks in our bags that got us through. The private onsen you can use all looked lovely. We had our own one so we didn’t use them, but would have enjoyed them if we had one of the other rooms. The staff are all lovely, very friendly and attentive. We were glad to have gone there. Note: if you are catching the shuttle bus back to Tokyo station, make sure you go to the bus stop a bit further on from the local bus! Despite asking staff they told us to just wait ‘at the bus stop here’ and didn’t even mention there were two bus stops! If it wasn’t for another traveler who goes to Shima Onsen frequently we would have missed our one bus for the day! Aldo note that it’s a four hour ride including rest stops, not three hours.

I stayed with my family twice in January 2022, after the New Year and in late January. Both rooms were on the 7th floor. The first time was a corner room, and if you looked down from the veranda, you could see the flow of the Shima River. The second time was not a corner room, but a family of three could relax in a Japanese-style room of 10 and a half tatami mats. Both arrived earlier than the check-in time, but the check-in was smooth, and the explanation from the front desk staff was polite, and it was easy to understand with memos such as meal time and bath time. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy the open-air bath early. The open-air bath had shampoo conditioner, body soap, and soap. A razor, aftershave lotion, hair tonic, hair liquid, comb, cotton swabs, and tissues are provided at the open-air bath washbasin. It seems that there was also a cleansing for women. There was a place where you can drink the hot springs on the first floor. A paper cup is provided. Two elevators. One was the observation elevator. There were heaters and rubbing alcohol throughout the ryokan. Wifi was available everywhere in the room and inside the hotel, so I didn't have any problems during my stay. It was fast enough. By the way, the price of juice etc. in the vending machine in the inn was the same as the price outside. I was impressed that there was also a vending machine for cup noodles. Tea and sweets were placed in the room, and there was hot water in the electric kettle and cold water in the refrigerator. The tea was Japanese tea and hojicha, and there were many teapot packs. For dinner, we had a meal in a large hall, but each table was far away, and we were given a bag to put away the mask during the meal. You can enjoy your meal slowly. I was satisfied with the quantity and taste. The catering staff was moving very quickly and it felt good. After dinner, there was a picture-story show by the proprietress. It was about 15 minutes, but seeing the proprietress's heartfelt picture-story show made me feel very nostalgic. There was also an explanation of Shima Onsen. When my son saw the picture-story show for the first time, he became a fan of the proprietress. The second time, after the picture-story show, my son was very happy to have a two-shot with the proprietress. When you return to your room after dinner, the futons are spread out and you can sleep right away. My bed is always my home, so the futon in the Japanese-style room is somewhat fresh. The open-air bath was open to men and women at different times, but it was spacious and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even after 5:00 in the morning, I went to the open-air bath in the dark and woke up perfectly. Breakfast was also very good. Check-out is at 11:00, so buy souvenirs at the shop before that. If you pay by credit card, it will be smoother if you ask them to charge the room before checking out. When I left the entrance, the staff took out my shoes, everyone greeted me in a loud voice, and I was able to leave comfortably. On the way back, when I took a family photo in front of the entrance, the staff came immediately and took it for me. Shima Onsen wasn't a big tourist spot, but it was a very good place to go to the hot springs with your family.

It was my first visit. It's a charm to feel history. It's a pity that the roof was under repair. . . It was Sunday, but there were quite a few customers when checking in. You can see that it is a popular inn. The response of the attendant who guided me first at the entrance was a little bit, but it was never office or cold. The room was a mezzone type and was wide 々 and the cleaning was neat. Very personal taste, but I was happy that the hot water pot installed in the room was Russell Hobbs. One of the multiple hot springs was not put in, but the public bath and the open-air bath were gentle and wonderful. The bathtub separated from the three hot water temperatures was also good. However, it is difficult to suddenly get up and down the temperature of the shower in the washroom. Even though I had hot water at the right temperature, it suddenly became cold water. . . The meal was very delicious for dinner and breakfast. The amount was just good and the response of the attendant was pleasant. During training? The foreign staff was polite and nice. My husband also said that the hot spring and the meal were great and wanted to visit again. Thank you for your care.

In accordance with Tokyo business trip, I decided to go to Shiman Onsen, which can be reached by high-speed bus １ books from Tokyo, and examined the color 々 including word of mouth and chose this hotel. ◎ It was a two-night meal, a solo trip, Friday stay, but it was very cheap. Other famous inn was not able to make a reservation, and it was very expensive even if it was possible. ◎ hot springs of ”Tamura” were available. ◎ dinner was also half Viking in the basic seat, and tenpu (４ kinds) were fried and free to eat. Also, there were very many quantitative and I couldn't eat. ◎ Breakfast was a Viking form, but because of the time shift, it was almost dense and I was able to eat without stress. ▲ The heating equipment in the room was old and bad and very cold. Also, the sound was quite loud and noisy. If this was not, it was a full score.

Sawatari Onsen has been rooted in this area for a long time as the hot spring of Kusatsu Onsen. Looking at the map, it's about halfway between Kusatsu and Shima. Compared to places like Kusatsu, the hot spring town has no foot traffic and almost no shops. Silence. . . correction. I think people who like remote hot spring towns will love this kind of atmosphere. Miyataya is located at the top of the hill in the hot spring town. When you look at the inn from the outside, you might think it's small, but it's built like a typical Kyoto townhouse, with the inn going deeper and deeper into the back. The three-story building has an indoor bath, a private open-air bath, and a family bath. It's nice to know that you can take a bath 24 hours a day, except for the private open-air bath. It's not as acidic as Kusatsu, nor is it cloudy, nor does it have a strong sulfur smell. I wonder if the temperature of the water will be a little lukewarm. . . It may not be enough for hot springs for hot guys who only like hot springs, but since I'm not too assertive, it was gentle on my skin and didn't irritate my skin, making it easy to take a long bath. Both meals were served in a private room. I highly recommend the famous cream-grilled apple that I had for dinner. At first glance, you might think it's a dessert, but since it's topped with scallops, it could almost be treated as a main dish. It's also hearty because it uses a whole apple. The wait staff was a foreigner who was learning Japanese, so I had the rare experience of writing drink orders on a piece of paper and handing them to them. I thought it was a shame that the open-air bath was a completely closed space with no view. But overall, I think it's a good inn. I would like to visit again as a refreshing bath after a day trip bath in Kusatsu.
