It was relatively cheap but the hotel is quite old and dated. The buffet dinner and breakfast is good value for money. Note there is no shuttle bus from bus station to the hotel. The 7 minutes walk is hard if you have heavy luggage.

Nice onsen hotel just beside the Yubatake

This was amazing onsen beside the Yubatake (which is right in front on the hotel) so you are in the middle of the town they have Yukata you can borrow and take wear to walk and take pictures outside too. Breakfast and dinner had a lot of options and was really good. Make sure to Book Hal-Board, it is worth it! They have onsen eggs for breakfast too! The only downside is that it is a bit old and the walls are thin so can be noisy when people talk on the hallway but Overall this was an amazing hotel and will come back again!

Onsen hotel next to Yubatake

I want to start off by saying I had a nice visit, I did the half board option and the food was plentiful and very tasty. Lots of variety, the sushi was not good and their take on Western food isn't great but the Japanese food is awesome. 2 different Onsen areas that alternate gender daily so you can try both. The hotel is old, let's just prepare you for this, really old. It could do with a massive makeover but I doubt it will happen as they are very busy due to the amazing location. If you are Japanese you will find it very run down, I was disappointed on my first day but by the second day I had moved past it. It is old (Showa era) so it was a smoking hotel, the rooms smell like smoke, not much you can do. Staff was very friendly and helpful, free Yukaya rental and a bag to carry stuff, you can pick different colours of Yukaya as well. Right across the street from Yubatake, lots of little shopping spots and short walk to everything, even the open air park Onsen. Watch the show of the traditional cooling, it is neat. Very relaxing trip, better as a romantic trip, not a lot to actually do in town so it forces you to unwind and relax. Short walk from the Kusatsu bus terminal but downhill so if mobility is an issue they provide a free shuttle service. If you want a fancy hotel then this isn't it but it is not expensive and great location.

This hotel is fairly old-fashioned, but that’s what makes it unique. Despite the fairly decent condition of the room and the smell of smoke, it was alright. The con is we have to walk uphill to the bus terminal.

Great location

Good wifi. Nice onsen on the ground floor. Great location right by Yubatake. Yukatas and towels provided in the room. Breakfast and dinner buffet are very generous. Very helpful staff. The walls seem a little thin, so you can hear people in the hallway.

This place is very old, so you can't expect much about the cleanliness. What we didn't like is the heater. The heater is old and the smell is very bad. We can smell the burning oil. Also there is no parking for this hotel.

温泉のお湯はとてもいい!! 洗い場はもう少し細かく清掃をしてほしい。床がヌルヌルでマットはずれまくり。 お部屋の質は、ふつう。 お掃除をもう少しキレイにしてほしい鏡に髪の毛はついてるし、机の脇はホコリがついてる。 風呂場のシャワーは根詰まりしてシャワーとしてお湯が出ない。 男性スタッフのほとんどが無愛想で良くない。 バイキングスタッフは、受付の指示を出したりしてる偉そうな方は、食べて本当すぐに、食器を片付けだすし、エリ元はだけてるし、ダラダラ歩くなどの見た目もマナーが悪い!🔰マークをつけた子や若い子の方が接客がていねいで良い!! ベテランやなれた人ほど、接客態度があまり良くなかったのが残念です
