- "Everything, from helpful staff to cleanliness and of course the food" - "The room is big and stunning! Facilities are excellent." - "Special thanks to the reception for helping to retrieve my wallet which was left in the shuttle bus. We had a relaxing stay at the hotel." - "location is amazing. view from onsen. kaiseki dinner. large rooms were very nice with view. efficient and friendly staff." - "-" - "This is a very traditional onsen resort hotel with modern comforts. Facilities and food are excellent. Highly suggest you book with dinner and breakfast. I didn't book dinner and went to a nice genghis khan bbq about 10 min walk away (information on recommended place to eat is available in tablet in the room). It would be nice to be able to relax and have dinner there without going out, coz' there are specials at the lounge almost hourly after check in, like free-flow beer, honey buffet, soba, etc.... Also, having had the excellent breakfast, which is a luxurious set plus side buffet (very unlike other Jap hotels) ... I think the dinner must be good too. I tried to pay to add on dinner at checkin, but was told it was not possible to add on on-site as it as to be pre-booked. I didn't understand until I had the breakfast. Each set is intricately prepared, everything was fresh and tasty... Will definitely go back again, and will book the dinner next time. Very good for a relaxing 1-night stay. Kokusai ski field is just 40-minutes drive away en-route to Sapporo/ Otaru from Jozankei, so you can check out early in the morning, get in a full day skiing/snowboarding, then drive on to Sapporo/ Otaru."

- "It is strategically located with Gensen Park, hand & foot bath all near round the corner. There are some other attractions just nearby as well. Standing from the (月見橋) bridge when you cross the Toyohira River, you get to see lovely views on both sides. The hotel itself may be a little old but it is very well maintained. Everything works perfectly. It is a huge hotel with many things to entertain you, there is the lounge, the public & private onsen, souvenir shop, massage, games room, & etc. We were early and we left our luggages and headed straight out to explore. The front staffs are quite senior and know their work very well & very patient to explain things to you even though they speak Japanese and we speak English. Have no worries, the front desk staffs all have a translation device so you will do fine. They are very helpful and will help you book a taxi which saved us from having to explain where and what we want with the taxi driver. We fell in love with the charming lattice door outside your room door. The corridor leading to your room feels like an apartment and not a hotel. Having never stayed in a Japanese-styled room, I find the room is very good considering that it is only 17sq m. The room itself contains a little foyer, a separate toilet, a separate dressing area, a separate bathroom, a living cum bedroom and a balcony to enjoy the beautiful lake view from your room. There is a light snack to welcome you at the lobby and your room as well. Must try the snack, it's mainly sweet potato & red bean in a small bun if I recall correctly. It goes very well with tea. The hotel is very consider to have a air filter in every room, this is very re-assuring especially we are still having covid. Dinner was fantastic, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Each dish is explained to you when they serve but of course we had no idea what they were saying. We just smile and said arigato and enjoy the wonderful spread of food."
