This hotel is the most beautiful hotel we have ever stayed at. The staff were helpful and always very friendly. The breakfast option was extraordinary, a private banquet of traditional Japanese dishes. The hot spring is beautiful, a rock pool flowing with healing water, always available. It is right on the Hida River which brings a soft tranquility. The walk into town is short, 15 or 20 minutes brings you to the center of town, with many dining options, temples and shrines. A truly memorable and relaxing experience.

Good service and Environment so quiet, the Onsen have 2 area, one in outside. Event the area is long distance with Gero station, they have free taxi to their hotel around 2:00 to 4:00pm. In the morning, if you check out and go back to Gero station, they also have free taxi for you. In next time, I will go back.

Pampering

If you see this review. Just book it if is within your budget. They take care of everything once you stepped into Gero station. Jus hopped into any Taxi waiting at the station and your retreat begins. We stepped into the inn and didnt think of going any where until our check out time.

너무 친절하시고 방도 너무 좋았어요. 온천탕도 개인탕 예약도 됐고 대중욕탕도 혼잡하지 않아서 더 좋았습니다! 식사 또한 개별방에서 코스요리로 나와서 정말 맛있고 편안하게 먹을 수 있었어요. 역에서 좀 멀지만 역과 호텔 사이 택시를 무료로 이용할 수 있어서 많이 걸을 필요가 없습니다! 게로 푸딩 같은 곳은 도보로 10분 정도면 갈 수 있어서 불편함 없었어요ㅎㅎ
