Hotel Manyotei

The food was more delicious and satisfying than I expected. I thought it would be nice if the smoking areas were a little cleaner. If I have a chance, I would like to stay there again.

Stayed here for the second time. The food this time was much better than before, especially the dinner.

An adult-only inn that I've always wanted to stay at. This time, I stayed as a couple traveling. I had already learned how wonderful it was by looking at Google reviews and Instagram, but after staying there, there were many wonderful things. First of all, the clerk and waitress treated me with a good sense of distance, and I was able to relax very much. Also, when I happened to check in, I was able to see the face of Mr. Musashi (Akita dog) leaving for a walk, which became a wonderful memory. The room was spacious, and I was able to spend a very quiet time looking at the deep snow and trees. Nakai-san brought me a yukata suitable for my height and was very kind. For dinner and breakfast, we used a lot of local products for local consumption. It was the beginning of winter, so I took my hat off to the dishes that expressed snow with cotton candy and Koboshi with cream cheese and tomatoes. It was a dish that was exciting enough to see with your eyes. The best part was the hot springs. Due to hot spring etiquette, I didn't take a picture of the bath, but it was a lot of hot water, very fragrant, and warm. On the day I took a bath, it was a cloudy white color, and there were plenty of hot water flowers floating in the pool. The indoor bath has large windows, and the windows are beautiful, so it feels like you are bathing in an outdoor bath. The open-air bath has a pleasant breeze and is relaxing, especially when I was alone. There were about 5 groups of guests, but most of them were 2 or 1, so we rarely met at the bathhouse. Those who take pictures with smartphones, etc., are taken regardless of the prohibition, and are posted on Instagram and word-of-mouth sites. There are many ryokan that put up a sign prohibiting such people, but even the phone number of the local police is listed, and I felt that it was a very good idea with a strong message. In addition, there are many adults who can't protect themselves even if there is a sign for silent bathing, but there weren't many people at this inn, so you can relax even in the corona wreck with peace of mind. In particular, the private bath is the best hot spring and kiln hot water to warm your cold body, even though it passes through a path of deep snow. In addition, it has become one of the inns that I want to visit again and again as the seasons change.

As other reviews say, the building is undeniably dilapidated, but considering the low price, it is a hotel with very good service. You can bring oden, alcohol, and coffee in the lobby to your room. You can bring pillows and humidifiers with you. The food was not luxurious or new, but the buffet was well replenished and the variety was good. The soy milk pot is very delicious, and I enjoyed everything from the buffet space to pork, vegetables, udon noodles and rice cheese. If my child fell asleep in the middle of the trip, the staff immediately noticed and connected the chair and brought me a lap blanket. The private bath also has about 10 showers, so it seems that the one that was used as a normal indoor bath was made private, but the children were delighted to play. I am very thankful that there are water guns, buckets and watering cans in the bathtub. The point to watch out for is February, so it's cold anyway. The path to the bath, the dressing room, and the room are all cold. I turned on the air conditioner in the room, but it was too cold, so I couldn't sleep in my yukata. I think it's better to bring room wear that can be used as a pajamas. Also, the toilet paper holder was about to come off. I wrote a lot, but I think it's a ryokan with more than enough service considering the price.
