Kankoso

"It can't be helped, but it was inconvenient that there was no water in the room."

Minakami Onsen KKR Hotel Minakami Suimeiso

"A little old but solid building with facilities. Originally for national public servants? I stayed as a visitor at the facility. It may be unavoidable because it is a visitor, but the meal was a room meal. The food was very delicious. We recommend a small family bath next to the large communal bath. Maybe it's a free-flowing bath."

"Friendly English staff speaking. Good onsen."

Minakami Onsengo Yubiso Onsen Hotel Yunojin

"Restaurant close early . Cannot order food . Vending machines only take cash"

Pension Asanebou

"This is the best stay I’ve ever stayed It’s a family run pension with two super friendly golden retrievers, the whole house is newly built, extremely clean, and decorated with good taste The dinner and breakfast are western- Japanese fusion, everything is homemade, definitely worth trying There is a nice and clean private onsen, or you can take a bus to have a day trip to other bigger onsen Minakami itself is a countryside area, and the pension is right next to the bus station There is literally nothing around the stay, so you need to get everything you need in Minakami station, but I think it’s a characteristic rather than disadvantage"

Mizubasho No Yado Higashi

"It was a nice inn with a nice hot spring. The staff at the inn are very polite and will make you want to come back again. The rooms are also kept clean."

Kinseikan Seseragi

"It was my first trip to Japan with my family~ We enjoyed the hot springs to our heart's content, and everyone was so friendly that the whole family was satisfied~♡"

Fukunoya

"The place was clean and the hot springs were great, but when we arrived for dinner, which was supposed to start at 6:30 pm, it wasn't ready. We were kept waiting, and even after being seated, it took over 30 minutes for the shabu-shabu pot and meat to arrive... some people waited for an hour. The website showed luxurious tempura and other dishes, but all we got was shabu-shabu, sushi, simmered dishes, and jelly. Breakfast was also disappointing, and this was with two meals included, costing over 10,000 yen per person compared to a room-only stay! And to top it all off, there were only about five staff members, so I wonder how they plan to get through a public holiday... All the staff were foreigners, and their Japanese was broken. It was heartbreaking to see one person working so hard and apologizing. It's such a shame, especially since they said they were trying to make a living by renovating a closed-down inn."

Kinshuusanso

"To say that it is a luxury ryokan in a beautiful setting with perfect service and amazing food is a joke. It is a standard business class hotel with an enhanced bathroom - big soaking tub and big picture window - it has no decor, no closet, no space. There is no public area at the hotel (no sitting room, terrace, anything), no outside grounds/gardens (it just sits in the curve of a serpentine road), no views, just your room and a long corridor. The service is non-existent as there are only 2 people on staff at any given time at the hotel, and they are useless and rude, they don't even answer emails or phone calls. Refused to serve us dinner although it is out of town with no other food service nearby. USD300 was a big mistake, $100 would have been more adequate."
