Facilities: First! Loud reminder: This Japanese-style single room has a wash basin on the balcony, no bathroom 🛀🚽, go to the toilet to go to the public restroom in the aisle
Environment: The historic hot spring area, there is a beautiful river outside the door, and the red leaves on the mountain are pleasing to the eye. Walking around, I also saw many traditional shops, and there is a violin museum next door worth seeing. There are also red leaves around the hotel, especially the sight of red leaves outside the balcony reflected in the mirror made me ignore the inconvenience of no toilet.
Service: An additional hot spring fee of 150 yen was charged at check-in, and a pajamas and disposable items were provided. The hotel's hot spring pool is not big and there are not many people.
The hotel has a car to provide a scheduled round-trip pick-up and drop-off from jr Cangji Station. Please see the official website for 2 times a day.
The room is very formal with tea boxes filled with tea sets, as well as local specialties of white rabbit snacks, the details are in place
The hotel boasts over 100 years of history and has hosted the Emperor. The ambiance is truly excellent. The room was quite large, and the Western-style bed was very comfortable, with a tatami mat, making it spacious enough for three people. The food was decent, but not amazing. We visited during crab season. The hot springs are truly wonderful, with several indoor and outdoor pools. The soaks leave your skin feeling smooth, and afterward, you're provided with drinkable hot spring water and a variety of Japanese teas. The shoe storage area at the entrance is a UV sterilizer—a nice touch!
Must give Iwayu's service staff, as well as the chef five-star praise. The service is not deliberate, every part is first considered for the guests. The restaurant is the most amazing time I have eaten in Japan recently, in addition to delicious, the display is also very careful. Not only taste, but also the vision is great!
The room is very big, Showa style, the nearby hot spring street is small and beautiful, very distinctive. Suitable for vacations that want to be quiet and far from the city!
