Hot Spring Hotels in Shibukawa

Very clean and tidy. Room as pictured. Staff lovely... thank goodness for google translate. Private hot pools great...large. You had to get in quick as no booking - but good sysyem on co.outer to see when free. I American breakfast good (except tomato sauce ON tge omelette). Omelette was light and fluffy. Only about 10 minutes walk to the steps.

I booked a Japanese-style room with a view of Ikaho Ishidan Street outside the window. The hotel's environment, service, and food for one night and two meals were also very delicious. The aperitif was brewed by the hotel itself. It can be seen that a lot of thought has been put into running the hotel well. It is very warm and my family and children are extremely satisfied. The private bath provided by the Japanese-style room is also very comfortable and perfect.

I used it for one night on a solo trip. I booked the morning of the day and went to stay. After arriving here, I noticed that there was no public bath in the hotel. I went down from the top to the bottom of the stairs and entered the large communal bath of the affiliated hotel Tamaki. It was a little hard. The room was smaller than I thought.

It should be regarded as the best hotel in Yixiangbao. It has a history of more than 400 years, but it does not feel old. Several soups are great. The service staff are professional and thoughtful. The small robot in the lobby is super cute. There is a small restaurant on the 19th floor to the entrance and exit of the stone steps, three private rooms, open at 8-11 every night, fried dumplings and ramen are delicious. The people in this place are friendly and hospitable. Udon noodles are local specialties, and each one is delicious; the ancestral stone pot curry rice of the Black Boat House is particularly delicious; Sara's Terrace Arraiya 's package is very homely; Lungo's own roasted coffee is the best to drink, with a bunch of rice cakes is too fragrant! The matcha shop next to the ladder is already very popular, but the clerk is so enthusiastic. When I fell down, I immediately took the first aid kit and ran out to deal with the wound. I was moved! The nearby original gallery is also worth a visit, in a pasture with lots of sheep.

The buffet meals were absolutely delicious. The steak, in particular, was incredibly tender, and the chawanmushi (savory steamed egg custard) had a fantastic broth – it was just superb. Since it was New Year's, there were special events like mochi pounding and sake tasting, which was wonderful. I definitely want to stay here again. My only minor complaint was that the bathing area was a bit cold.

I can see that it is a historical hotel. Because it is a Saturday relationship, the unit price I booked is a bit high, but compared to the hotel in Tokyo, I am relieved. This hot spring hotel is all-Japanese, breakfast and dinner are all, if you want to drink coffee, there is a vending machine, The room and the hot spring feel that there is a new finishing, only the hall has traces of history.

Not only the hotel, but the entire Ikaho service staff are mainly Japanese seniors. There is a built-in izakaya inside the hotel. There may be few people when I go there. Only my friend and I had dinner that night. I thought it was closed. When we saw we were about to eat, everyone opened the door for the two of us and managed it. The grandfather of the izakaya was very, very enthusiastic. Obviously we only ordered two bowls of ramen😂 They just sent two glasses of orange juice, two bowls of rice, and the sauce they made. They said they were delicious and must be tried. Taste it. Finally, when we left, we gave us two more glasses of wine for us to take back to our room and drink slowly 😂 The hotel also has a bathing area, and there are really very few people, which is equivalent to booking a place with my friends. The overall experience is still very good, I hope this store will get better and better🤣

The staff is kind and polite. I realized the service. I arrived a lot early, but I was able to park my luggage and it was a little far from the hotel.
