Nice hotel with very nice buffet dinner and breakfast. However, reception staff were not so friendly and did not explain properly to us about the usage of the onsen facilities.

Not recommended for long stay

Stayed 5 nights with half board, delicious food with many food choices but 95% same food every meal, not recommend for long stay guess. Awful onsen facilities, small locker, and limited space both in changing room and shower room. Provides free ramen for night food, no free drink in common area.

Good buffet but no shuttle to the bus station

Property is about 10 mins walk from the Bus station and Hotel does not provide shuttle to and fro, hence it is inconvenient to pull fhe luggage during winter time to the hotel. The back door of the hotel helps for quick access to the Yubate. Morning and Dinner buffet offer a very good spread but there is no need to book half board for more than 1 night as menus are largely the same.

The walk to the hotel from the Kusatsu bus station is not a mere 8-10mins or so, esp with luggage in tow and that it’s a bit steep to get to this hotel. Definitely not for older folks!! Didnt like that we also couldnt prearrange for taxi service ahead of time on our way back to Tokyo as we did not want to catch the bus again. One staff seemed a bit uncertain and hesitant about it, so left a bit disappointed. Food was wonderful though, for both breakfast and dinner. The use the local ingredients in season and each dish was incredibly tasty! The 3 onsens on the property were wonderful and thoroughly enjoyed!

Overall, it was supposed to be a nice place with onsens inside. The water composition is really good. Breakfast and dinner also contain a variety of healthy food. However, the hotel reeked of cigarette smoke. It's disgusting! If you are such idiots that you put a smoking room right in front of the health pools, then take care to make a good exhaust hood and doors that will not let this disgusting smell through! We felt this stench on the entire floor, in the onsens and even in our room. Although we made a request for a non-smoking room. Also in this app I paid for all sorts of additional taxes, but upon checkout we were presented with another additional bill, saying that it was a tax for the onsens. Not a word was said about this either in the hotel description or upon check-in. Total disgusting.

コスパが良いのに 夕、朝食のバイキングが美味しくて 種類も豊富で最高だった！ レストランスタッフの対応は テキパキされていて皆さまとても感じが良くフロントの対応は普通だったかな。 あまり気遣いを感じられなかった。 今回、渋谷から草津バスターミナルまでバスで向かいました。 小さめのスーツケースで行きましたが 坂のアップダウンがあるので大変だったのでバックは手軽なものがおすすめです。 湯上がり足袋や外履きサンダルがないので ホテルに着いてから浴衣で散策するときは何か気軽に履けるものがあると 良いかと思います。 トータル的には満足してます！
