Yamanote Villa Hagakure

It was a wonderful Accommodation where we could stay very comfortably. The location was easy to find, and the parking lot was spacious and easy to use, so everything from arrival went smoothly and felt reassuring.The Room was spacious, and the courtyard left a strong impression. We could view the courtyard both from the Room and from the bath, which was great because we could relax while watching the children play. Since each unit is detached, we were able to spend time quietly without worrying about others and truly unwind.When going to an outside bath, a set with a basket, towels, sandals, and socks was provided, and we were impressed by this thoughtful attention to detail. It was nice to be able to enjoy the Onsen with minimal luggage. The convenient location—just a short walk to Dogo Onsen—was also very appealing and made sightseeing easy.We also stopped by the glass museum on the property, and each of the children found something they liked and enjoyed it. This time we didn’t add meals because our plan was to try local street food, but next time we would definitely like to stay with meals included.It was an Accommodation that allowed our whole family to spend relaxing time together—we were very satisfied.

We visited Dogo Onsen for the first time in 25 years as a couple, planning to come once the repairs at Dogo Onsen Honkan were finished. Yamanote Bettei Hagakure, where we stayed this time, is a pleasant Accommodation with only seven modern detached villas filled with the soothing scent of wood. Above all, the dining was outstanding: a roughly two-hour Japanese creative course that perfectly matched the modern atmosphere of this Accommodation. We could truly feel the chef’s skill, and it was a blissful time that passed in no time. It’s on the pricier side for us, but with great Facilities and staff, it was a trip that made us feel glad we splurged. It’s also close to Dogo Onsen Honkan; we lined up before 6:00 a.m. the next morning and finally soaked in our long-awaited “deep bath” for the first time in 25 years—pure happiness!!
