Iwamuro Onsen Ryokan Fujiya

Service is very good But the temperature of the outdoor bath is a bit low

On the first Friday of September, after visiting Yahiko Shrine, I stayed with my wife for one night. The appearance is a seasoned thing that smells of the Showa era. At the same time as arrival, the guidance staff appeared from the entrance. I was invited by the staff to check in at the front desk. The interior has been beautifully renovated. After listening to the explanation of meals, etc., I went to the guest room on the 3rd floor. The room, which is thought to have been originally a Japanese-style room, is a twin bed room with wooden flooring. It is a style where you take off your shoes at the entrance and spend your time barefoot. It looks like it has been refurbished, but it is the cheapest room among the twin rooms, so the texture is reasonable. The special thing is the hot springs. Both the indoor and outdoor baths have a faint sulfur scent and are so soft that you will want to stay in them forever. There is no water bath, but there is a compact sauna, and since it was a weekday, I was able to use it almost to myself. This sauna can also be used during the morning bath, so after working up a sweat, lying down on the bench next to the open-air bath and looking up at the clear morning sky, I felt that my body and mind were cleansed. For dinner, a course meal is served at the restaurant on the 2nd floor, and for breakfast, a buffet is served at the lobby lounge on the 1st floor. I was satisfied with both quality and quantity, and it was very delicious because it was devised to incorporate local ingredients and local cuisine. As expected, there is only rice, and the deliciousness of white rice is exceptional. There was a little trouble at dinner, but when I checked out the next morning, the proprietress gave me a polite apology, and I felt once again that the staff was well taken care of. It was a hot spring town in a mountain village with nothing around, so I was able to enjoy the way I was supposed to spend my time at the inn. Thank you very much for your help.

Room, customer service. The meal and bath were amazing. I've been to the hot springs 5 ​​times because the quality of the spring water is mixed with wood. For me, breakfast was more memorable than dinner. It felt like breakfast at a ryokan, which was nice. This is an inn that I would definitely like to visit again! thank you very much.

Stayed with a friend in June 2021. It's a big hotel, so it's a bit lonely to have guests in this age, but the inside of the hotel was very well-maintained and the rooms were comfortable. The open-air bath on the roof is very comfortable. Many hotels have stopped using saunas during the corona crisis, but here they are still alive. There were no flashy ingredients such as crab at the time of the meal, but we were able to organize a kaiseki course with all the delicious local foods. The sake that was included in the plan was delicious, and the local sake that I drank by deliberately removing famous places was also delicious. Echigo sake is really good. By the way, Yahiko or Iwamuro is OK for pick-up from the station if you make a reservation the day before. Although it looks close on the map, it is quite a distance if you walk. The parking lot is large and easy to understand.
