Hotels met breakfast in Saitama Prefecture, Japan

4 Senior backpackers in Japan ”stumbled” onto this gem of a Japanese inn next to the Arakawa River. Less than 10 minute walk from the Kami-Nagatoro station and 10 minute walk to Nagatoro Station. We chose location due to proximity to river and start of river boat downstream river ride-sites. We were pleasantly surprised by the hospitality shown throughout our two-day stay. We were late in coming out of the mountains of Gunma prefecture (2 hour plus train ride away) and called the inn to notify and were subsequently told that this was no problem for check-in and supper. Fortunately we made up time lost and got to the inn earlier that expected and enjoyed the serene tree-lined river and men's and women's communal furo (shower/bath also in rooms) with outdoor views before dining. Then...we were overwhelmed by the quality and quantity of the dinner! A real treat to get a 7+ course Japanese meal featuring the specialty vegetables and protein of the region! Upon departure we chose to walk with packs back to Kami-Nagatoro Station, along the river, but the proprietor had the Inn van ready and waiting to take us to the train station. The included breakfast's were also multi-course Japanese style, with regional specialties. Granted, the hotel is somewhat time-worn, probably seeing its zenith in the 80's and 90's but all the facilities were cleaning, usable and safe. All staff went made a great effort to ensure that we were enjoying the locale and the Inn. This location, in our opinion is much more serene and ”touristy” than the main area surrounding Nagatoro station but is only 10 minutes walking from that action. If opportunity arises, we will return. The Saitama Museum of Natural is just across the street but this large and modern facility was not open on our late arrival and on Monday. We left on Tuesday morning, but wanted to visit this place also.

Beautiful hotel, the staff were very good and attentive. Just surprised they don’t have a laundry room in hotel for long term guests. Something that all hotel I know of have. I had to walk 1km twice to get my clothes washed. The rooms was comfortable. Visited twice and on second time I got to use the newer suites and it was amazing.

The service and facilities are good, the breakfast is diversified, the hygiene level is good, the staff are polite and willing to serve, and the location is convenient. If I have the opportunity to come again, I will patronize it again and recommend it to my friends.

Good location, very close to the train station but in a quiet area. It’s also near Sogo. The sauna is really nice,there are two pools in the women’s area (indoor and outdoor) and three pools, including a cold pool, in the men’s area. Breakfast was not bad either. There is also sofa bedding available for children, and it’s comfortable to sleep on. However, the windows cannot be opened. Also, the toilet seems slightly tilted to one side instead of being level, which made me feel a bit dizzy. Overall, it’s a good choice

來到了秩父，想要享受温泉，於是入住了木テ兒美やま 從酒店到秩父鐵道秩父站或者西武秩父站都有一小時一班的送迎bus 房間為桔梗，很寬敞 非常可惜的是，露天澡堂不是温泉水，只有大澡堂是用的温泉水 晚餐感覺有些無趣，埼玉縣不臨海，所以海鮮不太好吃，甚至還有魔芋刺身在充數，也許可以在肉類上加強!! 我很喜歡聊天，但在這裏沒有很體會到工作人員的服務，總感覺對別的旅客比對我更加熱情。比如對某兩位客人就幫他們提着包介紹到房間….希望是我的錯覺。 武蔵國の埼玉で1日を過ごしました! 秩父に來て温泉を楽しみたくて、ホテル美やまに宿泊しました。 泊まったお部屋は「桔梗」というお部屋で、とても広々としていました。 ただ、少し殘念だったのは、露天風呂が温泉ではなく普通のお湯だったことです。温泉水を使っているのは大浴場だけでした。 タ食は少し物足りない感じがしました。埼玉県は海なし県だからか、海鮮の味はイマイチでしたし、こんにやくの刺身が出てきてちょっと量稼ぎっばい印象も……。その分、肉料理をもっと充実させてほしいなと思いました!スタッフさんのサ一ビスについてですが、普段私はおしやベりが好きなのに、ここではあまり交流を感じられなかったのが少し殘念でした。また、他のお客さんヘの対応の方が丁寧に見えたのも気になりました。例えば、あるお二人の宿泊客には荷物を持って部屋まで案內していたようで……。きっと気のせいだと信じたいです!

The location near Tokorozawa Station was very convenient. When I made my reservation, I requested a lower bunk, but the young man at the reception desk told me that the lower bunk was fully booked and I would have to stay in an upper bunk. When I replied, ”I requested that when I made the reservation,” an older staff member immediately changed me to a lower bunk after seeing my age (71) on my booking slip. I stayed on a Saturday, but there were actually plenty of vacant rooms, and several lower bunk rooms were still available. The capsule was much more spacious and comfortable than other places, but I had some drawbacks: I was bothered by noise from the neighboring rooms and the upper bunk, the mattress was thin, which caused some back pain, and the air was very dry, leaving my lips chapped when I woke up in the morning. Relatively speaking, I'd rate it a fourth out of five.

The room is big enough, service is quite fast, not enough reception when few more guests to attend with. The room is clean and layout was good. Location is great, walk over from sky bridge within 8min. Downstair has lots of restaurants and nearby too, has two cafe.

location was good, only 5 mins walk from Seibu Chichibu station. My room got a very nice hill view, quiet and tranquil. The room was clean, very spacious in Japanese standard. Staff were very polite and helpful. There was one gentleman staff helped me to find packing material to wrap my walking stick that I bought from the temple during my 34 Kennon pilgrimage; so that I could bring it back home with me. Many thanks! By the way, the breakfast was very good with big array of food.

We knew the hotel was near the train station but didn't know how close it was! The building it was in and around it had many food options with a really delicious bakery on the 2nd floor. Not far from the Cocoon City Mall and the Saitama Super Arena, it has easy access to travel within and outside of the Saitama area. We were lucky enough to catch the Art Aquarium Exhibit at the arena which was a delightful treat. The hotel staff were courteous and attentive and the rooms were comfortable with all the necessities for our group. Would definitely recommend and return whenever we want to visit Saitama or Tokyo again!

I stayed with Wakoshi Tobu last year (long stay with friends) and 2 nights stay solo this time. My favorite hotel in Japan as I can rest very well in their very comfy bed and pillows (4 for solo), big bathroom and bathtub, and purifier and sofa in room. Front desk staff are always friendly and welcoming and housekeeping is perfect. I transited from Shizuoka to Wakoshi Tobu to Seibo hospital (for wounds check yesterday before flying home today) due to a serious fall in Mochimune Shizuoka seaside park. Wakoshi Tobu is the perfect location with an attached mall, for the hospital visit and Haneda airport.
