  • The Room was spacious and clean. Both dinner and breakfast were of excellent quality and quantity, leaving us very satisfied. The parking lot allowed early arrival and late departure, which was very convenient. All the staff members were extremely kind; thank you very much for your hospitality. We would love to stay again if we have the chance!

  • The room was a bit old but very clean. The staff were all polite and provided clear explanations about the Onsen facilities. It was fun to have help with wearing the yukata. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, and we were very satisfied. The beef tongue kamakura and Yoka pork shabu-shabu were especially tasty. After check-out, they kindly stored our luggage while we visited the Onsen, which was very helpful. The price was quite reasonable, and everything was excellent, so I would love to stay here again if I visit Kinosaki Onsen.
