HOTEL ROUTE-INN KAMIYAMADA ONSEN

HOTEL ROUTE-INN KAMIYAMADA ONSEN

📍 Kamiyamadaonsen, 2-chōme−28−3, Chikuma
★★★ 8.6 (56 reviews)

"I stayed here while on a motorcycle tour and decided to stay here because it had a large hot spring bath. They have three types of hot springs, so I was able to bathe in two of them the night I arrived and the next morning. The breakfast buffet was also delicious."

"I stayed here for one night on my way home. The hotel is located in a traditional hot spring town, and has a calming atmosphere that evokes a sense of nostalgia. The hot spring was spacious, and the water was very warming. It felt like my body was completely relaxed, and I was able to completely relieve the fatigue of my travels. There was also a very good liquor store near the hotel, with a wide selection of local sake and rare brands, so I had no trouble choosing souvenirs. The price was also reasonable, and I was very satisfied with my stay in terms of value for money. It's not flashy, but it's the perfect place for those who want to quietly enjoy the hot springs and the local atmosphere. I would definitely stop by again if I'm passing by."

"An authentic Japanese-style hotel. The facilities are a bit old but very clean. The hot spring is very natural and has a strong smell of sulfur. The skin is very smooth after washing it. It is available 24 hours a day. The boss, wife and waiters are all very enthusiastic and highly recommended."

"This is an adult hot spring inn that only accepts five groups per day, where you can quietly enjoy the hot water and meals. Even though the facilities are old (there are no inconveniences other than finding an outlet), they are kept very clean and tidy, which is wonderful."

"We used public transportation and requested a shuttle to Togura Station. We arrived 6-7 minutes early. While other inns' shuttles waited for the train before the scheduled arrival, ours arrived a little after the scheduled time. It was a very cold, windy, and rainy day, leaving us alone at the station. It would have been fine if the person who came to pick us up had simply said, "Sorry for keeping you waiting in the cold," even if it was just a lie. Instead, they simply said, "Please, Mr./Ms. XX," which was disappointing. Even when I told them I'd carry my own luggage, they brushed my hand aside and touched my luggage without permission, which was extremely unpleasant. Even at cheaper inns, I've never experienced someone arriving a little late to the scheduled time or touching my luggage without permission (brushing my hand away was out of the question). Furthermore, waiting for check-in in the cold, windy, and rainy weather was unpleasant, especially since I was chilled and just wanted to warm up in my room. Not everyone enjoys welcome drinks and sweets, so I think professional customer service would be better if they could understand what the guest wants, let them into their room first, and then decide on the hotel and meal times later. If they're going to make them wait, they could provide them with a blanket or show them closer to the heater. Treating everyone the same doesn't seem worth the price. The only saving grace is that the room and the in-room hot spring were the best I've ever experienced. The furniture and layout were tasteful, and the refurbishment was excellent. I think the shuttle service could be improved. It's unacceptable. Pushing away guests' hands is also unacceptable."

"Excellent experience at a traditional ryokan! I gave 4/5 stars for location because there are no particular views (it's right in the middle of the town), but the other features more than compensate for this. All the staff we met were very courteous and professional. Meals were traditional and introduced us to many interesting dishes. Onsens were small but since this hotel only has eight room, they are never crowded. Also the onsens are open through the night which I especially appreciated."

Hotel Yuuzan Hotels in Chikuma

"The parking lot had no lines, making it very difficult to park. The toilet in my room was dirty; there was feces stuck to the bowl even before my stay, and I was shocked to see that it hadn't been cleaned. The room was also a bit dusty overall (the tissue box was especially dusty). Table tennis cost 550 yen for 30 minutes. Considering the price, the net wasn't properly strung, and the rackets were worn out, so it wasn't worth the price. The food was delicious in both quantity and quality. However, some staff members spoke to me in a casual manner, which was a bit of a concern."

"Cost-cutting measures were noticeable. I went to the hot springs two minutes before 3:30 PM, as I was told it would be open then, but it was pitch black. I returned to my room, contacted the front desk, and they turned on the lights. I was staying in what was advertised as the only suite in the building, so I expected to have breakfast there as well as dinner, but I was with a family with children and it wasn't very relaxing. I wish they had at least provided private dining rooms for meals on the special suite floor. The evacuation route map posted on the room door was also from before the renovation. Dinner was delicious, with local ingredients skillfully prepared."

HOTEL ROUTE-INN KAMIYAMADA ONSEN ★★★
"I always use this hotel when I travel on business to Chikuma, Yashiro, and Togura. I also use it when I travel on business around Nagano Station if time permits. It's convenient that check-in is possible even at midnight, and the hot springs are amazing. I generally enjoy the baths not only at night but also in the morning."

Hotel Platon Annex Green Plaza ★★
"There was a service that allowed you to go on a hot spring hopping tour, and the surrounding area had a very Showa-era feel, with izakayas, shooting galleries, and more, which I thought was great. It was like traveling back in time to the Showa era."

Kamesei Ryokan ★★★
"Our stay at Kamesei Ryokan was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. Owners Mari and Tyler are gracious hosts who provide a warm welcome and exceptional service. The traditional tatami room, relaxing onsen, and inviting surroundings created a perfect Japanese experience. The meals were outstanding—beautifully presented and among the best food we enjoyed during our travels. What makes Kamesei truly special is the attention to detail and genuine hospitality. If you're looking for a traditional Japanese inn with amazing food, a wonderful onsen, and hosts who go above and beyond, Kamesei Ryokan is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!"

Hotel Kameya Honten ★★★
"The room was average but spacious, the hot spring was nice, and the service was good. I had informed them I was bringing a baby, so they provided a diaper bag and baby bedding. The food was delicious and luxurious for the price, and the price was really low, so I'd rate this as "very good"! The location is also great. Kamiyamada Onsen has a shooting gallery and snack bar, and it feels like a hot spring town from the good old days. Drinks from the vending machines are free, and if you serve yourself from the beer server, beer is only 100 yen, which is really cheap. It's not a luxury inn, but it's a nice, rustic hot spring, and I'd love to go again."

"Must recommend this hotel! Due to the late arrival time, the last meal of the originally booked dinner started at 7:30, but it was already 8 pm when I arrived. Before I entered the hotel, there were hotel staff who came out to greet me. There were also staff who spoke Chinese and English and told us that we could also eat. We were pleasantly surprised. Stayed here for three days, breakfast and dinner every day are very suitable for our taste (if you don't eat cows, you can say in advance), there is free milk downstairs, it is also delicious, there are many flavors. The room was spacious and clean, the hotel's hot spring equipment was also very good (the silver jewelry on the body was also discolored) and it was really enjoyable to sleep after the hot spring, and the hotel staff was very polite. Due to the lack of restaurants nearby, this hotel has breakfast and dinner, no need to find another restaurant, it is a good choice."
