Find the Cheap Kiso Town Hotels

この温泉宿は、温度がちょうどよくて何度でも浸かりたくなるお湯が魅力的でした。飲泉もできて、体の中からデトックスできた気がしますし、便秘気味だったのが改善されたのも嬉しいポイントです。木曽福島駅からの送迎があるのでアクセスも便利で、夕食に出た柔らかいイワナも美味しかったです。駐車場からは美しい星空が見え、まるで星が手の届くところにあるかのようでした。名古屋から近いのに、こんな素敵な場所があるとは思いませんでした。一人旅にも夫婦での旅行にもぴったりで、本当に素晴らしい宿でした。

We enjoyed our stay at this Japanese hotel. It's located in a valley within a small town, but its remoteness gives it a certain rustic and unique feel. When we arrived the staff jumped to get our attention and insisted on helping carry our luggage into the building. We were shown to our room which was spotlessly clean and absolutely beautiful. The two meals we had were great Japanese fare, each including about 12 or 15 different items to sample. Food quality is of the highest quality. The bathroom is beautiful and relaxing. We especially enjoyed the outdoor bathing. Super relaxing and open all night. We felt like we had an exclusive stay here; it's a place you won't soon forget once you've experienced it!

We found this hotel when looking for somewhere to stay close to the mountains and the hiking trails along Old Nakasendo, such as Magome to Tsumago and the Torii pass. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed, although the interior feels a bit outdated. The lobby offered comfortable seats to relax together, some board games, and a machine with free hot and cold drinks. Both dinner and breakfast was included and served as a Japanes style multi course menu. This was a wonderful experience and something we really enjoyed! Our host was very helpful by introducing the dishes and explaining how and in what order to eat them. We also enjoyed the complimentary hot baths, which work similar to every other onsen we visited in Japan. This was a great way to relax in the afternoon after the hike. The hotel is a 15 minute drive from Kiso-Fukushima station (where all local and express trains stop). The complimentary hotel shuttle bus made it easy to get to the station in the morning and back to the hotel in the afternoon. If you already have your hiking boots on, it is also possible to walk to the hotel via a beautiful scenic road from the local train station Harano in around 60 minutes. The hotel staff was great, very friendly, and doing everything to make our stay comfortable despite not everyone being fluent in English. For example, on our way to the station the shuttle bus driver noticed that there was a youth sumo wrestling competition held in a large tent along the road, and stopped for a few minutes to give us a chance to enjoy it.

This is my second time using it. The building is a little old but clean. It is a comfortable inn where you can feel the hospitality. Drink bar, water server on each floor, common room, free manga corner, free massage chair. You can choose a yukata, a pillow, and a humidifier. There is an extension outlet and a hair dryer in the room. The standard course meal is reasonably priced at 2,000 yen for dinner and 1,000 yen for breakfast. However, while I think it would be nice if the inn would read it, there are two points I would like to improve. When I stayed for the first time, I was delighted to have hot tempura, probably because it was a weekday stay. When I stayed for the second time, it was a Saturday, so when I went to the dining room, the fried food (fried fish on this day) was already on the table, and it was still a little warm, but it was getting cold. . We got to our seats about 5 minutes before the start of the meal, so if we had sat down on time, we would have been cold. This is a scene that unfolds as a matter of course at a common reasonable ryokan. No matter how low the price, I don't think anyone would be happy to eat cold fried food. Even if you don't force yourself to serve fried food, even if it's simmered or cooked in a hot pot, I'd like you to serve hot food warm. There is a microwave that you can use yourself, so you can warm it up a little, but the fish fry had tartar sauce on it, so I just ate it. For breakfast, cold grilled salmon and a bite omelet came out, so I chinned them in the microwave. After all, it was delicious when warmed up. one more. Even if I wanted to stay, there were only smoking rooms available, so I gave up several times. There is also a smoking room on the 1st floor, and an ashtray is installed outside, so please make all rooms non-smoking. In any case, it is my favorite inn, so I would like to stay again.

The traditional ryokan was very charming and perfectly alluring. The decor of traditional artifacts of the Edo period gave a pleasant insights to a former opulence. The inside and outside onsens were clean with a clear zen and ambiance. How I love the traditional kimono-styled house clothes offering a comfortable restorative relaxing dress code.

This place locals go to for special breaks, it is rural, the transfer from train station took about 30 minutes. Our room was spacious, It had elevated sleeping area, something between bet and sleeping on the floor. Most notable was food. We stayed for two nights and had two Kaiseki-style dinners, served in dinner hall. It was 7 or so course set menu, different on two days. We also had breakfasts there also a gastronomic experience. Hotel has own Onsen bath for guests, traditionally gender separated. Special thanks to hotel's staff, who went beyond what one would expect to help us out when we departed to station without wallet. Pay-by-phone doesn't really work there. To make sure our day plans are not ruined, they took us back to hotel and to the Magome town 66km away to catch up with trail schedule.

The staff really went above and beyond to make two ignorant Canadian tourists feel extremely welcome at a traditional Japanese Ryuken. Though there was a small language barrier, we never felt that we could not communicate our needs. The hot and cold onsen was very refreshing after walking post towns along the Nakasendo Way. The river next to the hotel made for a relaxing experience and deep sleep. Somehow, I missed the option when booking to select the dinner option, there is really no other food options in the area, and the clerk (owner) said he would put a 'simple meal' together for us for a small charge which we found acceptable. The kaiseki that followed was some of the best and most authentic Japanese food we experienced in our two weeks in Japan. The woman serving us was an absolute gem and the cat that ran the establishment was adorable. Our room was very comfortable and had a nice sitting area with a view of the river. Only points of contention would be that that it's a little out of the way if you don't have a car, but is conveniently accessable by bus with ~10 minute walk. The facilities are a little dated, the onsen is discoloured, but I assume that is from the natural minerals. There was a stale smell (smoke) in the rooms which is a bit off-putting to non-smokers. It would appear smoking is allowed in the facility which might be a plus to some.
