Toyooka Spa Hotel

"What an amazing stay! We stayed only one night at this Onsen but it was a great experience. We had a shuttle pick us up and drop us off at the train station, or bring us into town. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. There was one staff member who spoke English which made it helpful to get direction on how to stay at a traditional Onsen (it was our first time). The

on the property was also very nice. Breakfast was great and served in private stalls in the morning."

"The new indoor and outdoor hot spring pools are good. They also provided snacks and drinks in the rest area, which was very helpful after the hot spring bath. The river view and massage chair in the rest area were great. "

"This was a beautiful ryokan with excellent service and delicious food! We wished we booked a few extra days!!"

"This hotel is beautiful, extremely clean and attention is paid to every detail. We stayed in a traditional Japanese room which was a wonderful experience. The tatami beds were so fluffy and comfortable. They provide robes and slippers so you can visit the 7 hot spring bath houses in the village. Breakfast was also very good. It’s pricey but well worth it for a one of a kind experience!"

You are provided with yukata, small towels, and a basket for your belongings, but you cannot purchase the onsen pass from the hostel; this is not a problem though as you can purchase the pass from any of the main onsens. Everything is...

"BOOK THIS HOTEL! Loved our stay and totally worth the 2.5 hour train ride from Osaka. Was able to check in promptly at 3 p.m. and our bags were whisked away to our room. We immediately received our onsen pass and were able to get in a bath before our kaiseki dinner. The next morning we were able to explore more of the public baths and had an amazing breakfast. The town shops open around 11 a.m. so you can really get away with one overnight stay if not more. Beautiful property,

stay and...
