Great stay with excellent service and hospitality! While the location is slightly further from town, it’s still easily walkable. The service team was outstanding, providing lovely yukata for us to wear and even offering to drive us to the public bathhouses and drop us off at the station. Their hospitality truly stood out! The hotel room was spacious and beautifully designed, with fantastic shower products that added a touch of luxury. The food was delicious, and the onsen at the hotel was a perfect way to relax. Highly recommended!

The distance from the Stn is manageable by walking. Our room had this amazing view both day and night. The service is superb and the assistance extended to us (as foreigners) was worth noting. We opted for their dinner & breakfast and it did not dissapoint. The freshness of the food served esp the crab was memorable. Thank you team Asagiriso, our visit to Kinosakionsen was made extra special because of your delightful service & facilities.

Had a wonderful time staying one night with 2 other couples. Amenities in hotel were excellent. Hotel was very thoughtful and reserved a special room for 6 of us to have our kaiseki dinner together with a server attending to our needs. Will not hesitate to recommend to anyone coming to Kinosaki. Well done Asagiriso! Keep it up!

The location is relatively far from the rest of the town. It was tedious to reach the hotel from the station with our luggage. Thankfully, they could offer us a shuttle service to the station after check out, upon our request. So do try to make this shuttle service arrangement with them too.

Nice traditional Japanese room with beautiful river view. Great hot spring in the hotel. Dinner was divine, and the service was next to none. Definitely the highlight of our 2nd visit to Japan. And of course, the cherry blossom, perfectly welcoming, not like the shy and late 'arrivals' in Osaka hot spots. Highly recommend!

The location is mentioned to be about 5 or 7 minutes from the station, depending on where you read about it. I think it's more like 8-10. It's not far, but not close enough to walk luggage comfortably. I want to give the place 5 stars, but I also want to give it 2 stars. The service was good. They helped shuttle us around through the rain. The lady that served our dinner was very patient and helpful. Unfortunately, there is a big problem. The room we received has no view of the Maruyama river or garden, although it is advertised as such in pictures and descriptions on website. Our rooms had a view of the parking lot and the road, which the front desk referred to as a "mountain" view. I'm sorry, but this just isn't a good practice. You MUST make this as a different type of room with different price and let customers decide the value. I would not have booked if I had known this. There is also another small problem. The dinner was overall quite good, but I saw some other customers received different dinners with the full snow crab and sake. We received part of a snow crab and cheap white wine. I am confused. It would help to have an explanation. Otherwise I can't help but feel these problems are because I am not a Japanese customer.
