Large room. Enjoyed the separate sitting area. Staff was very good, kind and helpful. The food was wonderful, well presented and explained. The hot bath is made of attractive wood that feels good. I like being able to control the temperature.

한국인 후기가 적어서 걱정했는데, 시설도 깔끔하고, 가이세키도 맛있었어요. 게로역까지 왕복 택시비를 지원해줘서 편하게 이동했습니다. 직원들도 친절했어요. I was worried because there were few Korean reviews, but the facilities were clean and the kaiseki was delicious. They supported me with round-trip taxi fare to Gero Station, so I moved comfortably. The staff was nice, too.

Very dated property, very old decor,, the hotel would need some renovation and new furniture and art. It was hard to see that on the pictures on expedia. Most hotel in Japan give you a very limited time frame in terms of breakfast we had only the option at 7 or 8 which is quite early if your on vacation. We could not make it because my husband had to work at that time. They are also very strict on the checkout time. The service eas good and the first person who greeted us was very nice and really took the time to take us to our room and explain everything to us. We had a private onsen, which was nice and the room did not feel as dated as the rest of the hotel. The food was ok but we have come ro realize that a Kaiseki style dinner is not really our thing although we are not really picky eaters and love Japanese cuisine. Again the service was excellent at the restaurant though. I would not stay here again.

仲良しママ友との女子旅で利用させてもらいました。友人のリクエストでサウナ付きで部屋食の宿という事で紗々羅に決めさせてもらいました。ここに決めてほんとに良かったです。 ホテルの方達みんなとても感じがよくて、のくしてもらいましたし、夜朝ともの部屋食もほんとに豪華で女性にぴったりで色々な種類を少しずつ…、ほんとに多種類ででも全て美味しくてサイコーに満足できる食事を提供して頂きました。 温泉もとろっとしててお肌つるつるです。 お部屋からの景観もとても良くて、下呂の川と夕焼けもとても綺麗に見える素敵なお部屋でした。 また、利用したいと思います。
