"The room is very nice and Japanese style"

Minakami Hotel Juraku

"I think it's a good place to reset. It's nice that you can drink as much as you want from check-in to check-out. I came by car, so it was a shame that I couldn't drink in the morning. It can't be helped because of the location, but the roads are narrow when you come by car, and the Joetsu Line runs right there, so if you are worried about the sound of freight trains at night, it might be better not to go to the river side. I love trains, so I was very satisfied."

Taiyokan

"Ik heb een kamer gereserveerd zonder eten. Ik ben blij dat u deze plek zo vriendelijk hebt gekozen! De faciliteiten, de binnenverzinnen, de atmosfeer en de warmte van de kamer zijn erg goed, ik heb een zeer leuke avond gehad!"

Apple farm glamping villa HARASAWA

Nitaya

"I used it for the first time. It was a very nice inn and it felt like a "long-established inn". I stayed in a room with a toilet because it was vacant on the day. The toilet in the room was very comfortable with a washing toilet seat. It was very helpful because I was sick, but it was cold because it was in a place where heating was not good at all. There was no washing toilet seat in the shared toilet. The hot springs were hot indoor and hot open-air. There are 6 washrooms, but there are 2 showers, and there are only 2 at the end, so it is inconvenient if you are with others. Coffee, tea, miso soup, etc. were placed in the shared pot. The room has hot water in a thermos and a green tea set. I sold cup ramen to the inn, but the convenience store nearby (a few minutes by car) sold lunch boxes even if I went around 4 pm. I used the inn of Sarugakyo Onsen for the first time this season, but there are few guests in every inn (it is quiet and non-billy for me). I don't know if the sarugakuyo Onsen itself is lonely or the inn is narrowing down the guests, but the inn I used was a good inn everywhere."

Aratashi Minakami

"Rooms are very new and large in Japan standard. Bath tub in the balcony facing the river is very relaxing. Dinner is not as good as expected but breakfast is great."

Pension Asanebou

"This is the best stay I’ve ever stayed It’s a family run pension with two super friendly golden retrievers, the whole house is newly built, extremely clean, and decorated with good taste The dinner and breakfast are western- Japanese fusion, everything is homemade, definitely worth trying There is a nice and clean private onsen, or you can take a bus to have a day trip to other bigger onsen Minakami itself is a countryside area, and the pension is right next to the bus station There is literally nothing around the stay, so you need to get everything you need in Minakami station, but I think it’s a characteristic rather than disadvantage"

Fukunoya

"The place was clean and the hot springs were great, but when we arrived for dinner, which was supposed to start at 6:30 pm, it wasn't ready. We were kept waiting, and even after being seated, it took over 30 minutes for the shabu-shabu pot and meat to arrive... some people waited for an hour. The website showed luxurious tempura and other dishes, but all we got was shabu-shabu, sushi, simmered dishes, and jelly. Breakfast was also disappointing, and this was with two meals included, costing over 10,000 yen per person compared to a room-only stay! And to top it all off, there were only about five staff members, so I wonder how they plan to get through a public holiday... All the staff were foreigners, and their Japanese was broken. It was heartbreaking to see one person working so hard and apologizing. It's such a shame, especially since they said they were trying to make a living by renovating a closed-down inn."

Hotel Yu-No-Jin

"You can tell that the place is very well cleaned. Table tennis: No reservation necessary if there's space available. The ventilation fan in the room is loud, so it might be a good idea to turn it off when you go to sleep."

Kinseikan Seseragi

"It was my first trip to Japan with my family~ We enjoyed the hot springs to our heart's content, and everyone was so friendly that the whole family was satisfied~♡"
