Suimeikan, Gero

I was blown away by the breakfast buffet! It offered an very nice selection of both Japanese and Western dishes, making it one of the best breakfast experiences I've had in an onsen hotel. From fresh sushi to delicious pastries, there was something for every palate. I truly appreciated the bite-sized portions, which helped prevent food wastage and allowed me to try a little of everything!

The onsen facilities at the hotel were simply fantastic. I enjoyed having access to three different hot springs, each with unique temperatures and views. My favorite was the outdoor onsen where I could relax while soaking in the beautiful surroundings. It was an incredibly soothing and rejuvenating experience, and I loved being able to wear a Yukata while strolling around the beautiful gardens.

The room I stayed in was impressively spacious and had a stunning view of the river and mountains. I loved the traditional Japanese touches, including the tatami area that added to the authentic experience. The comfortable beds made for a great night's sleep, and I appreciated the little nook where I could enjoy my private tea time. The thoughtful design really showcased the essence of a Japanese ryokan.

The hotel didn't just stop at an amazing stay and dining; there were numerous entertainment options available. I found the game area and large souvenir shop impressive. It was a fantastic way to unwind after a day of soaking in the onsens. Whether it was playing games or browsing through unique local souvenirs, it added an extra layer of enjoyment to my stay.
