Hoteles de balneario en Prefectura de Gunma, Japón

Mi estancia en el Hotel Kamenoi Kusatsu fue excelente. El onsen estaba muy limpio y era bastante espacioso, lo que lo convirtió en una experiencia relajante. El hotel también cuenta con un práctico atajo que lleva directamente a la zona peatonal de Yubatake, lo cual es una gran ventaja. Tanto el desayuno como la cena fueron tipo buffet con una amplia variedad de platos: muchas opciones y todos muy agradables. El servicio fue excelente y la habitación era cómoda para dormir. El único inconveniente es que había muy pocos enchufes en la habitación, pero no fue un problema grave. En resumen, una estancia fantástica y muy recomendable para cualquiera que visite Kusatsu.

Stayed for 2 nights in early Dec 2024. Booked the mountain view twin room with cypress bath which comes with both dinner and breakfast. The ryokan styled hotel is located diagonally opposite from the shibukawa bus stop and about 5 mins walk (turn right from the hotel) to the Ikaho stone steps around the mid section of the steps. The hotel is old ryokan style but well maintained and does not see much wear and tear. The lobby which is on the 3rd floor (ground level) is big. No shoes allowed in the hotel, guests have to deposit their shoes at the entrance. Staff were all friendly and polite though not all can speak well in English. They do go much more to make you feel at home. Yutaka is provided at the lobby. My room which is located on the 4th floor corner is considered big. Old styled ryokan kind of design but with western bed. Though the room is laid with tatami on the floor but can still hear people walking if they area heavy or run. Corridor noise does filter in as well but muffled. Unblocked view of the mountain as the hotel sits on an elevated hill. I would recommend to stay with mountain view. The cypress bath can fit 2 person but takes a while to fill, I rather go to the public onsen. Besides the usual amenities, they even provide face wash, face moisturiser, etc in the room. Safe box is provided in the room as well. Wifi seems weak. No place in the bathroom however to hang your clothes or towel. There is an indoor onsen on the first floor and an outdoor one on the 8th floor. The onsen are gender separated. They rotate the male and female onsen on the first floor though both has the same look and facilities. The onsen on the 8th floor has a nice view of the city but no shower facilities. There is a massage chair on the first floor as well. Breakfast and dinner are served on the 2nd floor. I would not say that this is the best, but definitely delicious and sufficient. Check in at 3 pm and check out at 10am which I find a bit too early. Hope they can consider to extend. Overall I would recommend this place to stay if you are coming to ikaho.

We stayed in Naraya House for 1 night and it was perfect. The staffs were all very kind and helpful that I am truly grateful for all their assistance given throughout our stay. We had a suite, rm no.206, it was stunningly amazing! I only know I am booking a suite with a beautiful view of the yubatake and private onsen. I didn't know it's a gigantic duplex suite with the best view of the yubatake! The room door opens to a western style living and dining area that fits with a set of sofa for 6 and a dining table for 4 with 2 benches. To the left of this western style area is 2 double beds, a walk-in closet and a toilet. I could see Japanese syle beddings in a cupboard which I believe they would be made when the room is booked for more than 2 persons. Facing the sofa is a TV panel. Behind the TV is a Japanese style sitting area with a coffee table and a view of the yubatake. The view is picturesque. There you can also find a stairs going down to the suite's private onsen bath. It's actually on a balcony overlooking the yubatake, the same gorgeous view as in its Japanese style sitting area above, just without the windows, ie closer and clearer picture of the yubatake without reflections. But be aware ppl on the street can see u too, as you can see the windows r just next to 7.11 The meal provided was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the freshly made sushi. The salmon roe was just so fresh that they were actually shining like marbles. All the ingredients used are high quality. My kid, who is usually picky on food, was pleased with the menu. He already wanted to come back again. Next time, we will stay here for more nights in order to better experience the beauty of Kusatzu. Ps I usually don't bother to write a review, I am doing this one in return to the hotel's great service and hospitality. Thank you and until next time~

Habitación estilo japonés en el edificio este: aunque el cuarto era pequeño, tenía todas las instalaciones de baño y la ducha no era muy antigua. La cena estuvo deliciosa y satisfizo el paladar de los turistas. Sin embargo, la temperatura del agua del onsen exterior, especialmente el más bonito, siempre estaba demasiado fría para meterse; el chorro de agua salía a 40 grados. ¡Tenedlo en cuenta!

This hotel is really fantastic! The service was super attentive, the rooms are beautiful and comfortable and the onsens are incredible. I took an early bath in the morning before breakfast and it was so calm, you have two different baths to use. We didn't do dinner, but we had breakfast and it was tasty and abundant. The hotel is perfectly located next to the path that goes to Sainokawara park, but also very close to the center of the village. I truly recommend it

We had a wonderful stay at Urakusatsu Tou, a brand-new hotel that truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly escorted by the staff. Although parking was allocated at a private outdoor parking area, the hotel thoughtfully provided an escort service, making the process very smooth and comfortable. The room was spacious and beautifully designed. Communication was easy as the receptionist spoke fluent English. The hotel also provided pajamas and daily clothing, which was a lovely and convenient touch. The onsen experience was outstanding—definitely one of the best we’ve ever had. You can immediately feel your skin becoming smooth after soaking, which made each visit incredibly relaxing. We stayed for three nights with both breakfast and dinner included. Meals were served à la carte, and the menu changed daily, surprising us every time. The food was delicious and very filling—we were completely satisfied after every meal. That said, there are a few areas we hope the hotel could improve: • During winter, the room felt quite cold as the air-conditioning heater did not function properly and was unable to warm up the room. • Breakfast hours could be extended a little later for guests who prefer a more relaxed morning. • Providing a choice of pillows would further improve sleeping comfort. • The blue indicator light on the room’s control panel remains very bright even when all lights are turned off, which can be a bit distracting at night. Overall, this hotel offers excellent service, comfort, and an unforgettable onsen and dining experience. Highly recommended, and we believe it will be even better with these small improvements.

Breakfast and dinner buffet was included with our room and it was much better than expected. Overall, I would say this is a wonderful hotel though the only thing is how strict they are with check out and parking times. We wanted to walk around the city, though we paid for late check out at 12, hotel would not allow us to pay extra to park a few hours more.

We had an amazing and relaxing stay! We truly loved it and had a wonderful night surrounded by serene nature. The view was absolutely beautiful — the lake is just right in front of the hotel! The place is spotless and very well maintained. But what truly made our stay special was the incredible staff. A big shoutout to Mr. Ozu, the General Manager, for going the extra mile with his thoughtfulness! When he learned that we were heading to the ropeway the next day (and that there were no bus trips on weekdays), he kindly offered us a ride. He was also genuinely concerned about our hike and overall safety — so heartwarming! Since we didn’t get the dinner package and there was only one restaurant nearby that closed at 4 p.m., we decided to get a takeout for dinner. My friend also asked if there was a nearby café to buy a cake for my birthday, but there wasn’t any. Later that evening, after we came back from the onsen, someone knocked on our door and surprised us with a complimentary cake! They said it was because we didn’t have dinner and they wanted to celebrate my birthday. Awwww! Such a thoughtful and sweet gesture! 🎂💖 In the morning, Mr. Ozu even gave us taxi numbers and the bus schedule for Yumoto Onsen, making sure our travel plans went smoothly. Truly amazing hospitality — we felt so cared for and appreciated throughout our stay! 🌿✨

Excelente servicio. Le daría un 10 sobre 5 si pudiera. Un miembro del personal se acercó rápidamente a nosotros y nos preguntó si nos quedaríamos en el Ryokan. Fueron muy útiles para viajeros perdidos y abrumados por el frío. Nos recibieron cálidamente a nuestra llegada. Nos explicaron la información importante lo mejor que pudieron en inglés, lo cual fue perfecto. La habitación era grande. Decorada meticulosamente al estilo tradicional japonés. El Yukata y el Obi que nos proporcionaron contribuyeron a la experiencia inmersiva. La cena fue exquisita. Los platos nos dieron una idea de la cocina tradicional japonesa. La comida era auténtica (no parecía comida congelada, enlatada ni precocinada), servida y emplatada meticulosamente. Había dos onsens, uno interior y otro exterior. Estaban limpios y eran bastante espaciosos. El agua (creo) proviene de una fuente termal cercana y fue sumamente terapéutica. El Ryokan estaba cerca del centro del pueblo y todo estaba a poca distancia a pie. Nos llevaron amablemente a la terminal de autobuses al hacer el check out (no tuvimos que esperar horarios fijos) y nos cargaron el equipaje (pesado). En resumen, disfrutamos muchísimo de nuestra estancia de una noche y su hospitalidad japonesa es un ejemplo de excelencia.

Parece ser uno de los ocho hoteles de aguas termales más grandes de Asia. Las instalaciones son, por supuesto, de primera clase. La atención de los diseñadores y propietarios se nota en cada detalle, haciendo que los huéspedes se sientan relajados y cómodos. Los tres baños públicos cuentan con baños interiores y al aire libre, y se proporcionan mascarillas de sake y diversas cremas hidratantes de forma gratuita. Para un hotel de aguas termales de este nivel, los camareros fueron, por supuesto, amables, especialmente el hermano que se encargó de recogerme en la estación. La única señorita extranjera que se encargó de recibirme al principio también fue muy linda. Lo único malo es que la comida es abundante pero realmente no es sabrosa. No soy muy exigente con la comida, pero no puedo terminar el desayuno ni la cena.
