Hotel Analysis
Based on 4 sites · 3,371 reviews
A large ryokan-style hotel in Kusatsu Onsen. Guests frequently mention 'spacious and clean rooms' and 'excellent buffet meals' in reviews.
Reviews across sites repeatedly praise the 'varied and delicious dinner buffet.' The onsen facilities are popular, especially the outdoor bath on cold days. Free shuttle buses to the onsen center and bus stops make movement convenient. Evening performances like taiko shows or water cooling ceremonies are fun, according to common feedback.
Some reviews note disappointment for tattooed guests unable to use the hotel onsen. Yubatake is a 5-10 minute walk, and a few mention sulfur or sewer smells in rooms.
Great for families or couples on an onsen vacation. Shuttles and shows give a resort feel.
