    What a beautiful hotel in a perfect location. It was an older, but felt like a very traditional Japanese style hotel with a picture perfect onsen. Loved the freezer full of little icecreams to enjoy after the onsen looking out from the 11th floor...

    Okey-ish. The breakfast is moderate, and the rooms are a little old but clean. Near the train station, so if you’re a light sleeper it might be a bit of a challenge for you. The onsen was the highlight of the stay, but it is a little too small,...
