3-Star Hotels in Totsukawa

Lake view from room is superb and hotel staff is fantastic. Room has no shower tub so guests must use the public onsen, which can be cleaner like all common area (maybe it is the age of the hotel showing). Outdoor onsen is lovely, but English information is lacking on how to access it, like all facilities here since the staff speaks no English and no English hotel manuals are provided. Hotel did not provide dinner service during my stay and there was only one Okonomiyaki restaurant nearly. Mosquitos galore in my room and I was bitten all over (probably due to the lakeside location); even the anti-mosquito solution provided by the hotel did not help. Even considering the higher room price, it is a treat to visit this amazingly beautiful, remote corner of Japan.

My husband and I are enjoying a hot spring inn ♨️. This time I went to ”Hotel Subaru” which was in a 5-star inn. Since it is in the mountains, I was planning to enjoy only the hot springs, and there was Kumano Hongu Taisha on the way, so I went to visit. There was a large parking lot after passing through a tunnel from a narrow road, and Hotel Subaru was among various facilities. Like a village revitalization resort? It's a feeling. I checked in at the small front desk and entered the room. The room feels old, but it was well-cleaned and I was taken care of in a Japanese-style room, but the bedding was also clean. I was worried about the smallness of the pillow, but I slept well. The hot spring of the facility with a day trip bath was very comfortable with the open-air bath flowing directly from the source. My wife is a women's bath and the aunts in the neighborhood? It seems that he was cleaning the bathroom naked with a brush while talking. It seems that I didn't feel like it was a smile. Lol 🤗 I had a kaiseki meal at the restaurant. The restaurant was partitioned due to the corona disaster, so I was able to eat with peace of mind. The food was well seasoned and delicious. The price of a luxury ryokan is delicious and natural, but it was a comfortable and affordable accommodation with delicious food and an open-air bath with a free-flowing source. I would like to take care of you again.

A season of boar meat hot pot has just come! Please enjoy the meat of wild boars grown up in mountains at Totsukawa.

Yamatoya, an inn with water directly from a hot-spring source, is located close to the Kumano Kodo Kohechi trailhead
