Independent Yanaizu hotels

"We didn’t use the onsen attached to the hotel as the sister hotel was much nicer, we appreciated the cleanliness of our room, had a great experience "

"Beautiful property. The food was truly genuine Japanese cuisine, sit down meals that were not buffet style. "

"Clean room but it seems rather out-dated. No room-by-room control of air conditioning - i.e. the entire building is controlled in either way."

"Wonderful ryokan! Whilst not positioned directly on the river, it’s just a short walk to it. For the rest: superb rooms, baths and the breakfast is unmistakably the best in any onsen of that grade. Top marks!"

"Placed near the river, excellent hot baths and very good bedrooms. Breakfast is good."

"Our room overlooked the treed face of the cliff, down to the stream at the bottom. It was very relaxing. The staff were all very welcoming, and the half board dinner and breakfast were amazing."

"This resort has an amazing location with a gorgeous view of Lake Hibara and Mt. Bandai, and the Five Colored Ponds. Their staff members are very formal and friendly and has a great restaurant buffet. The rooms and building itself are in okay condition with some scuffs and stains, but overall an excellent place with a very unique gift store with great items like food, snacks, and gifts. The traditional Japanese room is very nice"

"Location is a little far from the station, 25 win walk, but it had a (small) onsen. Hotel site says there is a convenience store ten minutes away, but there’s actually a large supermarket right next to the hotel and open till 10pm."

"Very nice modern Onsen hotel, our Japanese style room is spacious with a separate sitting room and the view is great. The buffet dinner and breakfast were great and the onset facility is wonderful. The hotel provides shuttle bus services to the local attractions and JR station. Highly recommended."
