Hotel Hana Isawa

The overall evaluation of the hotel is not so good, but the day-use bathing wasn't bad. It's a 5-minute walk from Isawa Onsen Station, so you can drop in for a quick visit. Day-use bathing is available from 14:00, so I went at 14:30, and there was no one there as the hotel guests had not yet checked in, so I was able to enjoy the freshly cleaned, clean changing room and bathroom all to myself. The hot spring is of high quality, flowing directly from the hotel's own source. The bath felt like a large public bath at a public inn. The cost was around 1600 yen for a bath towel with the inn's name on it, a toothbrush set, a plastic drawstring bag, and a rental bath towel.

The hot springs, including the open-air bath, were very comfortable. Amenities were also provided. The facility itself felt old, but it could also be described as Showa retro. It was a satisfying trip.

This is one of the hotels in the View Group in Isawa Onsen. Dinner is not a buffet, but it is relatively reasonably priced. Check-in is at 2 p.m. and check-out is at 11 a.m., so you can stay for a long time at a leisurely pace, and I used to stay here often. It's been a while since I used it this time. The Japanese-style room already had a futon laid out, but it was still a large room with a lot of space. You can see Isawa Station, the cityscape, and the mountains from the window. There are two room keys, which was convenient. Toner and other amenities are provided in the bathroom in the room. The bath is a large public bath that is alternated between men and women, and the open-air bath was lukewarm, so even though it was a hot day, I was able to relax. The hot spring water comes out one after another, and it's a waste of the amount. It is a gentle, colorless, transparent hot spring. There are plenty of amenities in the washroom area. It is also helpful that there is a water cooler in the dressing room area, especially during this hot season. There is also a free private bath, but I used it before, so I didn't use it this time. I had dinner at the restaurant. Most of the food is set. I enjoyed every dish served in beautiful dishes. The six-item appetizer platter alone was a perfect accompaniment to wine. The tempura was served fresh from the live counter, and the salt powder was not too salty, but had a gentle saltiness (the salt is called Kenkyona Shio). Chawanmushi and grilled red fish were also perfect accompaniments to sake. We ate the rice in the pot with Nozawana furikake (to be mixed into the rice) along with the beef hotpot. Before dessert, the dishes were cleared away and a new hot towel was brought out. For dessert, we had soybean flour pudding. We BYO a full bottle of Yamanashi wine (corkage fee required). The veteran waitresses were quick, kind, and attentive. The non-Japanese staff also provided polite service. My partner was satisfied, saying, "The accommodation is reasonable, but the dinner is good. Has it always been like this? I wonder why we haven't come here for a while. Let's come again." Breakfast was a buffet. *The fried food and eggs are made live and are both delicious. There is a good selection of buffet items, including sandwiches. When customers finish their meal and leave the table, the staff diligently wipe the tables and chairs, and everyone also greets all the customers. My wife was impressed that the staff work so hard. I want to stay longer, so I'll come again.

The tatami room, hot springs, and breakfast were very good. The toilet smells and the floor is sticky.

The name of the hotel is "Hana Isawa". This time, thanks to the nationwide travel support, the hotel price was discounted by 20% and we received a coupon worth 4,000 yen for two people. It feels like we got free souvenirs. The lobby on the first floor is unnecessarily spacious. The room is a Japanese-style room. Perhaps they are short-staffed, as the futons have already been laid out. It really is a traditional hot spring inn. We were on the seventh floor, so the view from the window stretched into the distance. Isawa Onsen is a rural town. There is no hot spring town a**osphere at all, is there?

A relatively good hotel near Isawa Onsen Station. Isawa Marche (where you can buy fruits, wine, etc. at a reasonable price), AEON, etc. are within walking distance, so it is highly recommended. Breakfast was a buffet style, but it was criticized in previous reviews, but there was no such thing at all, there was a wide variety, and it was very delicious.

The hotel in general has an old feeling, and what I was particularly concerned about was that the walls and doors were thin, so footsteps and voices in the corridor echoed in the room. Because it was the same floor as a family with a small child, I requested a room change because it was too noisy, but it was impossible because it was fully booked. Anger welled up at the response of the front desk at night who seemed to have no intention of discussing further. It was nice to be able to use the hot springs of other hotels in the group, but I will never stay there again.
