"Dai-ichi Takimoto lived up to its reputation! The bathhouse is wonderfully spacious with a great variety of pools, so much so that there's even a recommended bathing sequence – I only discovered it on the steam room's exterior wall on my second day, and it was quite an eye-opener! There are also three charming outdoor pools with beautiful views. The staff were all very attentive. We didn't book dinner, but breakfast was fantastic – a rich selection of high-quality dishes. (Note: there aren't many restaurants on the hot spring street outside, especially in the evening. I'd recommend the ramen shop for lunch and the seafood rice at the onsen market for dinner.)
The twin room in the South Wing was very spacious, the facilities were modern, and the view from the window was lovely. My only gripe is the somewhat impractical layout. Firstly, I'm not sure if it's because of the integrated bathroom unit, but the bathroom itself was tiny and cramped, forcing us to use the main bathhouse in the mornings and evenings. Secondly, the wardrobe was placed in an awkward spot, making it inconvenient to open and access clothes. I genuinely suggest they visit some mid-range hotels in China, like those under the HUAZHU Group's Ji Hotel brand, to see how they ingeniously solve these design challenges."
