I visited on a whirlwind solo trip. The hotel room was clean and I was satisfied. What made me happiest was the all-you-can-eat seared bonito at the breakfast buffet. I honestly thought that because it was all-you-can-eat, the taste might not be that great, but I was surprised at how delicious it was. The hot springs were open until 5am, which was great for me since I like to stay up late. The late-night ramen was also delicious, warm, and comforting. However, I witnessed a staff member in the kitchen area of the breakfast buffet being harsh with another staff member, and it made me feel like I was being scolded, which was unpleasant. I wish they would at least be more gentle in areas where guests can see them. Other than that, it was a really good hotel!
The hotel is located in a remote area, suitable only for self-driving tours. The hotel is situated on a cliff, offering a very quiet environment. All rooms face the sea, but it is a bit dated, and the large bathhouse is a bit far from the rooms, which may be inconvenient for elderly people. The staff was very friendly, and the breakfast and dinner were also good.
The location is not in the city but it doesn't have much impact on self-driving, there is free parking. The lobby is grand, but I was a little disappointed when I entered the room. The Japanese-Western style room is large, but quite old. The carpet is very dirty, as is the sofa set. Everything else is just acceptable. The bed is super soft, and the toilet is small. A guy's knees can touch the wall when he sits on the toilet. The breakfast is rich in variety and the restaurant has a view of the sea and the harbor.
The lobby is so gorgeous, but the hot springs have only a large field and no private space in the small pool. I booked a double room with my friend and finally stayed in two single rooms that were opened; a big room, a good Surprise. There is also free parking.
Very impressive experience in the quiet and beautiful town. It is quite convenient to KUT. The hot spring is quite nice. So surprised and moved to get hot drinking water in the room in the last stay. Will stay here if I come in future.
For this trip, I chose a hotel closer to Episode 36!
A hotel with beautiful sea views and a well-designed outdoor hot spring pool.
The front desk staff were very patient. On the eve of the typhoon, many buses changed their schedules. The hotel staff also took us to the bus stop with the departing bus!
Really sincerely grateful🙏
Highly recommended!
The hot spring was very pleasant. There was also a sauna! I went to the rice shop in the facility, but I was a little disappointed that I made a mistake in calculating at the time of payment. The rice you have reserved seems to come out smoothly, but it takes time to order it on the spot. We recommend that you book dinner or eat outside.
I went to Hirome Market earlier than check-in time, but I was able to park my car in the parking lot. The open-air bath was also very nice, and the breakfast had a wide variety and was delicious. The Thursday Market was right outside the inn, so I was able to buy fresh vegetables and fruits early in the morning. Thanks to this, I had a great trip.

Amazing view of the Niyodo River with a delicious kaiseki dinner! We had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the onsen!
Came here for the view and it did not disappoint. Room is standard tatami room but quite spacious for a family of three. Hearty breakfast and dinner, and we were served different types of food for dinner on the second night, so it’s quite thoughtful of the hotel. View at the outdoor onsen is breathtaking, with the starry night sky that you can’t get in a city.
GGuest UserWe had the most amazing time at Sodayama Onzen. It is a very special place to relax and unwind. Our room had a private onsen overloooking a stream in the forest. The rooms were very spacious and clean. We also enjoyed the amazing food! It was a very special experience but way too much, especially in the mornings. But it was a great experience of fine Japanese cuisine. The staff was so friendly, communication with google translate helped.
The room we stayed in was very spacious. The onsen was really amazing, quite huge that could accommodate the many other guests who booked at the same time with us at the peak of the golden week. We availed the buffet dinner, where we luckily got discounts from our All Accor membership. The dinner buffet has a wide selection of food and drinks. They also had a buffet breakfast which was quite good.
I love this fashionable Japanese-style hotel. The decoration, the way they serve meals and the check-in and check-out are efficient and straightforward, easy to move around the hotel. The best thing I like the hotel is the location, amid solitude and you can enjoy a very quiet and peaceful mind. Will miss it.
AAnonymous UserThe hotel offers traditional Japanese hospitality in a renovated setting. The view from the rooftop bath is amazing as well as the kaiseki cuisine.
We were plenty surprised with the hotel and its facilities after a long ride up. It is a beautiful property nestled in the mountains and is the best stay we ever had in Japan!
