Sky Bath Mountain Lodge Hanayu

What we liked 1. Amenities: L’OCCITANE products, a 5-blade razor, and four heated bath towels provided as standard. The refrigerator was fully stocked with juice, beer, and many other drinks—all free. Unlimited ice cream. 2. Meals: We had sukiyaki as the main dish. Before the main course, there were about 5–6 items including sashimi. The sukiyaki portion had so much meat that we were completely full; refills were also available. Rice: cooked in a special pot. It looked glossy and beautiful, but the taste was average—unfortunately a missed opportunity. 3. Room: The open-air bath surrounded by many bamboo lanterns was truly soothing and cleansing for the mind.These are just some highlights. Heated towels may not be necessary for everyone. The service was excellent, and we would stay again.

This was our second stay. Our previous visit was exactly a year ago. As mentioned in other Reviews, we did not have a particularly good impression then. So why did we return? Because the Onsen was wonderful, and we wanted to enjoy it again. Please forgive my bluntness, but we made our Reservation without expecting much hospitality and stayed anyway. However, this time exceeded our expectations—from the warm welcome on arrival to the staff’s attentive service and their thoughtful care during meals, for which we are truly grateful. The staff’s courteous hospitality—and perhaps it has always been this way—felt even more sincere than before. We could genuinely sense their desire to listen carefully to guests’ feedback. They even saw us off at the end of our stay, and we are thankful that it became such a pleasant anniversary for us. This has become an Accommodation that makes us want to return again. Thank you very much.
