"The hotel offered us a very nice experienced to stay in the classic yet cozy ambiance. With the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable and patient to answer all my inquiry and misunderstanding. The hotel itself is very interesting for me to explore and the onsen experienced is very nice and marvelous. The river view very scenic and everywhere I captured the photo it always turn out so great."

"Perfect design, the dinner and breakfast were very generous."

Spa Guest House Lulud

"Booked the Japanese style room with toilet. Shower room has to be shared on the 2nd floor. Room has no amenities at all. Basic hair dryer and hot flask are in the communal area. We had to set up the bed ourselves. Room was dusty and was freezing cold even tho there was heater from the air con on winter’s night. There’s instructions to learn how to kill the stink bugs. The hotel facilities are good but the overall experience wasn’t good."

Shiriyakionsen Hotel Kozanso

Shima-Onsen Toshimaya

"With our children getting older, family trips have become more difficult. However, we were looking for a relaxing, soothing hot spring resort, so we took the Kusatsu Express and bus to Shima Onsen. A short walk from the bus stop, we found the inn, exactly as depicted on its website. We enjoyed a relaxing soak in the outdoor bath attached to our room, listening to the sounds of the river, and enjoying the elegant atmosphere. The children ate their generous portions of dinner, and we were so satisfied we went to sleep. The service plan was well-organized, and the staff were very accommodating, arriving early and helping us with luggage storage. Both the hotel and the rooms were very clean and well-maintained. The dining area was decorated like a sunken kotatsu, and I was impressed by the thoughtfulness of the facility. The private baths offered included two types of luxurious baths, including a rock bath and two with close-up views of the river."

"Although it is a traditional hotel, the overall hotel facilities are still old. The hot spring water quality is OK, but the sanitary environment is old and probably has not been renovated. The hotel needs to go up a big slope, and it is not very convenient to carry luggage. It is better to stay at the 40,000 grand hotel at the bottom of the slope. It is more cost-effective to buy a pass to come to this hotel."

Kayamoto – A Timeless Retreat in Shima Onsen

"The service staff are very kind. Almost every service staff has a smile on their face. The house is very clean and large. They also thoughtfully prepared ice water in the room and a family-style bath. The space is large and very clean. Especially the hotel's supply. The breakfast and dinner were really delicious. Thank you Jiayuan for giving our family a wonderful travel memory."

"I stayed in a five-star special room at Kashotei. The room was wonderful, with a cypress bath. It was quite spacious, with a bedroom, living room, and Japanese-style room. You were free to use whatever was in the refrigerator. The food was delicious, and the hot springs were wonderful. The service was also good (although some people complain that I'm not Japanese or that my Japanese isn't great, but I don't mind). The hotel is made up of Kashotei, the mountain lodge, and the main building, and is like a maze, so it's fun to explore. It's a wonderful inn."
