I've been a repeat customer of this hotel since before COVID-19. I came here as a family of four with my child. I've been to many hot springs in the past, such as Nozawa, Yokoya, Kusatsu, and others, but my wanderings stopped here. The quality and temperature of the springs are excellent. The smell of sulfur is strong, but it feels good. The food is also excellent, and it goes without saying that the pork shabu-shabu and roast beef are delicious, but they don't cut corners at all and put a lot of effort into their preparations. There are many types of alcohol, and they've been carefully considered. However, the all-you-can-eat buffet, which has a 90-minute limit, allows you to enjoy desserts at your leisure. Skiing of course makes you hungry, but air hockey, table tennis, and table soccer use up a lot of energy and make you hungry. The all-inclusive service, which started a while ago, allows you to enjoy drinks and snacks in the lounge or in your room, making you feel richer than you'd expect. On the other hand, the rooms are by no means new and the sinks are rusty, but considering the nature of the area where corrosion occurs due to hydrogen sulfide, this is to be expected and you can't really call this place luxurious. It depends on what you prioritize in your accommodation, but if you're looking for quality spring water and satisfying food, this is the place to go. And for drinkers, it's clearly worth the money. It's three and a half hours from Tokyo, including snow tires, in the car. But I still want to go again. If they could advertise it better and make the transportation easier, I'm sure it would be popular with foreigners too. After all, the experience of stroking the piled up snow and having a blizzard full of the smell of sulfur blow into your face is a different world that you can't often find.
