It was wonderful place to stay. 1. Food was very good and served on beautifully chosen plates. Very diverse and interesting choice of dishes. For second day we had another set of food. Especially good was special sake (you will need to order it additionally), it was very tasty and easy to drink. In nearby shop there is also local mochi with mugwort - they was very good and worth to try at least once. 2. Room was very spacious with intricate design made from local wood and bathtub on balcony felt as it was our personal open air onsen really, with view on the forest and river. Also yukata and haori was included and it was perfect way to experience food, make some photos and enjoy our stay. It goes without saying that room was very clean and beds was very comfortable. 3. Place itself is very quiet and nice. Village is very near to Dorogawa onsen village but much calmer and not crowded by tourists. It also has great trail for hiking which goes trough beautiful falls to Dorogawa. There are 2 suspension bridges there with great view on river. At night there are plenty of stars and you can see wild deers. 4. Everyone was really hospitable, helpful and we had no trouble without knowing any Japanese.

All was perfect.

The private onsen was amazing! Luxury and relaxing and absolutely amazing views of the forest. Hearing the river helped us sleep. Kontatsu table was a nice touch. The food is probably the best quality local food you can get in Japan, all prepared to perfection. Lovely staff who were very kind and helpful and accommodating to our requests e.g. changing some of the food for my wife who is pregnant.

The toilet room had a slight smell of blocked drains

The meals are the best of our whole trip in Japan. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is nested by the creek yet right across the street from the bus stop. The location is perfect. The host gave us a ride to the nearby public Onsen and gave us a tour to the Tenkawa Daibenziten-Sha Shrine, where the Emperor of the Southern Court had lived around 700 years ago. We took a less than two-hour scenic hike to the Dorogawa Onsen village, and 25 minutes bus back. Loved their private bath which includes both indoor and outdoor tubs all to yourself but needs to book with the host.

Our room had a private onsen facing the forest - it was lovely to soak in while enjoying the views and sounds of the brook. It’s a small establishment so it feels very personal. The spread of food was very generous and the owner could speak some English to introduce the dishes.

Nothing much to dislike - it was a lovely stay in the middle of nature.
