Hotel Yu-No-Jin

"You can tell that the place is very well cleaned. Table tennis: No reservation necessary if there's space available. The ventilation fan in the room is loud, so it might be a good idea to turn it off when you go to sleep."

Minakamisansou

"It is said to be suitable for families with children, but from my experience staying there, it may not be suitable for families with children. There is no baby shampoo or baby bath. Depending on the room you stay in, strollers may not be suitable because there are stairs, so a baby carrier is essential. There are a lot of stairs. There is only a very basic baby chair (without a belt). There seem to be picture books, but there are no toys. There are no diaper changing tables in the toilets, etc. It is a bit strict for families with children, so it may be that the inn is not welcoming to families with children. There are quite a lot of dishes for infants, and the meals for adults are also delicious. However, when it is crowded, I don't know if there is a shortage of staff or the estimated time it will take to eat is too long, but it was hectic afterwards, as it seemed like they would not be able to make the last order. I secretly thought that with that amount of menu and alcohol, 2.5 hours would be tough. The hot spring is very comfortable and wonderful. For some reason, the bath attached to the room is a jacuzzi (the contents are natural hot springs, which is great), which ruins the atmosphere, but if you open the window all the way, it could be called an open-air bath. The food and hot springs are great, but there are a lot of things that are a bit disappointing. If they are not child-friendly, I wish they would be honest about it."

Aratashi Minakami

"Nice and new hotel with direct view of the river. Facilities are very modern."

Taiyokan

"It was my first trip to Gunma Onsen, and I was surprised at how few buses there were, but there was a bus stop near the hotel, so that was a relief."

Hotel Shimeikan

"My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our 30th year of employment. The first thing that impressed us was the dinner we had upon arrival. The sashimi platter, braised Shimonita pork, a small hotpot of conger eel, grilled sweetfish, and stone-grilled Joshu beef sirloin were all delicious. My wife, who is usually quiet, commented, "I feel like I'm enjoying the most delicious beef I've ever had in my life." The room was also cozy and spacious, like a living room. The view from the window and the sound of the babbling river were soothing. The hot spring water left my skin feeling smooth, and the view from the open-air bath, surrounded by the forest and the sound of the river, created wonderful memories for us. On the way back, we stopped off at Doai Station, Japan's most popular mole station, which I'd always wanted to visit, and it was a fun trip. I'd like to return in a different season. Thank you for your hospitality."

Kurayashiki

"This is an inn where you can really feel the Japanese atmosphere. With the lake stretching out before you, you can wake up in the morning in a pleasant mood. For breakfast, we had rice with rice toppings and seasonal vegetables."

Syoubun

"The service was impeccable throughout our stay, the room was immaculate, the food was delicious and all locally sourced and the room had every amenity that you might need. Loved the private hot spring bath within our room as well. Highly recommend for a weekend trip to Minakami!"

Takaragawa Onsen Ousenkaku

"We went there for the outdoor onsen which was great but service could be improved"

Pension Asanebou

"This is the best stay I’ve ever stayed It’s a family run pension with two super friendly golden retrievers, the whole house is newly built, extremely clean, and decorated with good taste The dinner and breakfast are western- Japanese fusion, everything is homemade, definitely worth trying There is a nice and clean private onsen, or you can take a bus to have a day trip to other bigger onsen Minakami itself is a countryside area, and the pension is right next to the bus station There is literally nothing around the stay, so you need to get everything you need in Minakami station, but I think it’s a characteristic rather than disadvantage"

Hotel Sunbird

"I participated in an event, and the private open-air bath was amazing. There is a large public bath, but it is undeniably old, so although it must be difficult to manage, I would be happy if they could improve it. Specifically, I would like the bath to be a little bigger and the space to be a little more open. I went there without doing any research, so I found out later that there was also a bath on the mountainside, and I would like to use that next time. Also, breakfast was a buffet, and it was delicious. The stewed offal in particular was so delicious that I had to have seconds. You can camp in the spring and summer, and there is a well-equipped washing area, so you can see the effort that has gone into it. In winter, there is a ski resort right in front, so it seems like there are many different activities to do, and it seems like a hotel I would like to use again."
