Absolutely wonderful stay at the hotel. The onsen experience is magical. The buffet is outstanding. The hotel also arranges for taxi service with pickup and drop off at the Shinkansen station, eliminating all stress about transit. I would consider staying here for a little longer next time.

The room was gorgeous and relaxing! And staff were incredibly kind and helpful! The food was bad though, which was unfortunate because we were looking forward to it. It felt like some of the sushi and fruit were sitting out for quite a while. Also we were assigned a dinner time spot, which was at 7:30pm (didn’t have an option to choose), and by then after a long day we were starving and wished we could have an earlier spot

Beautiful hotel with a grand porch. 2 big doors lead to the lobby. Lobby is spacious and rest of hotel is small. Only one dining restaurant that served breakfast & kaiseki/buffet dinner. Guests who have chosen shabu shabu dinner will have to take hotel shuttle bus to another building. There are some free japanese tea & ice cream available all day long for guests. Can also enjoy free performances at night at the lobby.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This is an expensive hotel, and it is the food that makes it more expensive. With minimal options nearby, you are kind of destined to book the food options. We did not find the food options up to the standard of which we had paid. Some food was cold when it should be hot and food choices felt limited in some areas. This is buffet style dining. The free ice creams was brilliant though. And the onsen is the best onsen we have visited in Japan. the room was spacious and comfortable. We had a room with a private onsen, which to be honest is not necessary, because the main onsen is so amazing. The gardens are beautiful and the staff relly helpful, if maybe sometimes a little overbearing.
