Best part of our Japan Itinerary!”

This was my wife and I’s first trip to Japan. We visited many places Tokyo Kyoto Hakone Osaka Asakusa Oeno Just to name a few. But the Onsen in Minakame was by FARR the highlight of our 10 day vacation. Do not skip out on this one! It’s a bit out of the way from the major tourist spots but so worth the adventure. Also, going in the winter made it a wonderland!!!!

Very beautiful scenic onsen especially in winter. It is not situated in a convenient location but the ryokan arranged transport to fetch to and fro the train station. Love that the onsen is mixed bath so our family can enjoy the onsen together.

Scenic Onsen”

The most scenic onsen experience I have to date. Located in the middle of mountains and just next to the river, it is an ideal break for city escape. Used to be traditional unclothed bathing, however, to cater to foreign guests, have implemented bath dress codes in their outdoor baths. Although negatively accepted to some, I am thankful, for now I can bathe and enjoy the surroundings with the family. The pools are large and nested right next to the clear waters of Tagawa river. Amazing! They ryokan has the charms of the old ryokans and their staff, despite some negative reviews, I found were very professional and friendly, akin to the well-known Japan customer service. I chalk it up to language barrier and difference in culture. Will come back!

The staff and facility are truly wonderful. Our car would not make it up the last hill (heavy snow) so they came down to pick us up. (great shuttle service). 4 different onsen to use and most open until midnight. Excellent place for couples weekend trip, cant wait to book again.

The perfect place for a fairytale stay. Add it to your bucket list!”

Well worth the money for an incredible experience that you simply cannot find anywhere else in the world. Contrary to some reviews, we found one night to be sufficient - even though we would have liked to stay longer! The staff spoke perfect English and were beyond welcoming. They went above and beyond to assist us in any way possible - including organising a lift to nearby Hodaigi Kogen at 8:30am. We stayed in the main hall; the rooms here do not have showers but they do have ensuite toilets. Yes - this means that you have to walk about a minute to the indoor onsen to bathe, but we did not find this to be an issue (and in fact added to the authenticity). The dinner service was a little strange for my Vegetarian partner but still very filling. The food kept coming so don't go too hard on the early courses! The outdoor onsens were of course the star attraction - we were lucky enough to visit during some snow (late Feb) and the experience was dreamlike. We absolutely loved it!
