This guesthouse is hidden gem during our 2 night stay at Kusatsu onsen with only 7-8 rooms & the environment is very cozy. The guesthouse was newly renovated & everything like new. We booked 4pax stay & the rooms condition is excellent. The staff service is good. We love it very much the onsen facility on this guesthouse. Breakfast provided were excellent. Nevertheless, this guesthouse is highly recommend during your visit to Kusatsu Onsen.

The negative part is our room do not have private bath room only can take shower on onsen area but no big deal because not much guess in this guess house only 8 rooms.

Convenient location with clean and spacious room. Although breakfast was served in the room, it was quite delicious and well presented.

Parking. Impossible to locate if you do not read Japanese. Everything else has met expectations and consistent with other reviews.

This ryokan exceeded all our expectations. Located in the heart of Kusatsu Onsen, it provided easy access to the town centre and bus station. The staff were exceptional, very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The hotel itself was spotless, and our room was spacious, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. We really enjoyed their breakfast. We stayed there 2 nights and it was different both mornings. A special highlight was being able to enjoy the onsen without any issues despite having tattoos that I can't cover.

Honestly, I can't think of anything I disliked about our stay. It was perfect!

Everything was good. The Staff, Location, the room, the onsen, breakfast...all are wonderful. I have problem with my heavy luggage but the nice young female staff helped me. The hotel is right across Kusatsu bus terminal (less then 1 minute walk), and there is a 2-minutes-walk shortcut to Yubatake. There is a convenience store right in front and a restaurant next door. There is no shower or bathtub in the toilet in guest-room. But who needs those when you have an onsen with showering area.

No elevator but staff will help you with heavy luggage. The hotel has only 2 floors so most people will have no problem.

Beautiful onsen, wonderful obliging and friendly staff, perfect location close to the Yuba, bus station, supermarket and the open onsen park. A very nice restaurant right next door as well with oishi soba as well a Lawson downstairs. It was snowing and cold when we were there so this convenience was a godsend. Supermarket also had very nice cooked food. A really wonderful stay. Kusatsu is a very beautiful town. I would highly recommend this accommodation and the breakfasts were superb, really special and beautifully presented.

Best Japanese hospitality! Family owned ryokan like place. When we got there they served us tea and warabi mochi in the room which was very nice. The breakfast was also served in the room and they prepared us a thoughtful vegan breakfast at our request. I loved the little details in the room, everything you could find useful was there. The staff was kind and the price was affordable for the experience.

The parking was difficult to find, it was a public parking opposite the hotel. They give you a parking ticket which is only from 3pm to 10am the day you checkout. We came 5 min earlier (at 14:55) and we had to pay extra for the parking. We didn’t know the system as we couldn’t find the details on booking.

First thing we noticed was the big room compared to other hotels with a comfortable bed. The staff were excellent when we checked in and when we got our breakfast which was quite nice as well (although felt a bit high in sugar/carbohydrates). The public bath was very nice, the water was very hot compared to other hotels but enjoyable. The hotel is also located directly next to the bus station and above a supermarket and nearby all the sights.

Great location, near the bus stop + Lawson + Yubatake Interesting mix of hotel-like rooms w/ ryokan service, the size of a guesthouse

Onsen/furou temperature is too hot. Also the shower water temperature changes too slowly Automatic toilet lid opened each time I went into the bathroom Breakfast is carb heavy & western. Also, they assume you drink coffee which not all people do

If you have been to Kusatsu before, I would recommend here if you do not want your night to be disturbed by the crowd at the tourist sightseeing spot. Free breakfast and large public bathroom. Less than a minute walk to Lawson and honestly, I do not think you even need to go Lawson for anything other food or snack. Water is provided by the inn.

More breakfast option as I do not drink coffee. Would be also great if dinner option is also provided as the village closing time is quite early and you will be left with convenience store food if you do not dine out on time.

The staff was very friendly and the room was amazingly clean.

We wished that we were given breakfast options. We are vegetarian so we didn't eat half of the food that was prepared for us. It was a shame to waste all the meat they put on our plates. It would been great if they offered a vegetarian option.
