Hirugami Grand Hotel Tenshin

We stayed at the standout Grand Hotel Tenshin in Hirugami Onsen. One great point was that check-in was available from 2 PM. Before dinner, we were able to relax and enjoy the Onsen at our leisure. The strong alkaline water made our skin feel smooth the moment we entered, which was amazing. The room was clean and comfortable to stay in. If I had to mention one thing, it would be about the kaiseki dinner. Both its presentation and taste were excellent with no complaints there. However, I felt that the serving time was quite slow. Each dish took a long time to arrive, and even though we tried eating slowly on purpose, we still found ourselves waiting for more food while thinking "Is it coming yet?" It also left us feeling not completely full by the end of dinner.For breakfast though, since all dishes were already served beforehand, this wasn't an issue at all!

We stayed as a group of three seniors. Although we visit Hirugami Onsen every year, this was our first time at Tenshin. The autumn leaves from the panoramic bath were stunning, and even though we reserved the standard course for meals, both the quantity and quality were satisfying. The staff was kind, and we would love to come back next year!
