Yumoto Horohoro Sanso

Looking for an Accommodation that offered an Onsen, a Japanese-style Room, and buffet meals—just as my father requested—I came across the “Good Couple Day” Plan and chose this Accommodation.It was our first stay here on a long-overdue father-and-daughter trip.At check-in, a female staff member at the front desk told us, “You can use the private bath at a great price,” but since we were traveling as parent and child, we politely declined (laugh).After check-in, we considered visiting a nearby Hotel for an Onsen-hopping experience, but given the season and not wanting to get chilled while moving around, we decided to bathe only at Horohoro Sanso this time.While some aging of the building is unavoidable, our Japanese-style Room with beds was clean.With both heating and air conditioning installed, it was very comfortable.The large public bath is a bit of a walk from the Room, but using the escalator made it much easier.Since it was a weekday, we were able to relax in what felt like an almost private bath.Dinner and breakfast were buffet-style.There was a good variety of dishes, and I went back for seconds again and again.I ate too much that I couldn’t move after returning to the Room—even though bathing is available all night—and ended up completely exhausted (laugh).The next morning, I enjoyed another relaxing soak in the Onsen before having another delicious breakfast.At checkout, one of the staff even took a commemorative photo for us.We had such a comfortable night’s stay—both my father and I were very satisfied.

The Accommodation Fee at this Accommodation has risen quite a bit since the COVID-19 situation settled down, so we hadn’t visited much lately. However, this time there was a weekday Plan where we could make good use of coupons and Earn Points, so we decided to Reserve at a great price.It was our first time staying in the tatami-style Room with beds that was the lowest-priced option that day, and I was surprised at how clean the Room was.I’m also grateful that Wi‑Fi—something I had long wished for—has been installed before I knew it.Both dinner and breakfast featured thoughtfully prepared dishes, and even without expensive ingredients everything was more than delicious. In addition, it was comforting to see several dining hall staff who have been working here for many years, and I really appreciated the relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to eat and drink without feeling self-conscious.That said, I would like you not to put away condiments such as jam and honey before breakfast service ends.We’ll continue to find time to come back and enjoy a long soak together as a couple. Thank you in advance.
