“The hotel shuttle driver picked us up from the train station and was incredibly friendly! We really enjoyed chatting with him. The onsen facilities at the hotel were great also.”
“Having Japanese dinner in Japanese costume is fun. Prompt free shuttle bus service.”
“An older Ryokan at the Oboke Gorge. Staff member who checked us in had excellent English. Carpark is small but it wasn't very busy. The hotel is a bit rundown but our room was quite big overlooking the carpark and down the gorge. Public bath is very small. Hotel restaurant served excellent well priced meals but there are two restaurants and a Conbeni up the road. Note the restaurants close early.”
“The staff was excellent. There was one young man who spoke a lot of English and that really helped. (I wish I could remember his name as he was so lovely.) There is good value and the room was quite spacious. They provide yukatas, towels, onsen, and rotemburo. The rooms, onsen, and breakfast are in rooms with beautiful views.”
“Staff were exceptionally friendly and very helpful, the scenery in the Iya Valley is absolutely amazing and well worth a trip”
“Hotel in beautiful Iya Valley, could be modernized, had a room with no private bath, onsen was sometimes crowded. All in all very nice stay. Hotel offered transport to the railwaystation.”
“the view of the open part of the women Onsen is facing the green mountain”
“The 7.7 star rating is undeserved. Who cares about the walls looking a bit old when there's a whole valley infront of your eyes and you're sitting in a hottub enjoying the view? 9/10”
“The location in the scenic valley is gorgeous if a little isolated without a car. The food is really good. The outlook from the onsen is majestic. The staff spoke adequate English.”
“Great location, very helpful and friendly staff, and excellent onsen.”
