Osawa Onsen Sansuikaku offers a range of bathing options to enjoy at this inn, as well as at the 200-year old Jisuibu Toujiiya and the thatch-roofed Kikusuikan sitting across the river. null

"How do I describe this hotel? In one word: amazing. It was my first time experiencing a mixed-gender bath from over a century ago. I was truly impressed! The elderly gentlemen were just casually strolling around without a care in the world. Families, you absolutely must try the mixed-gender outdoor hot spring bath. It's located in the old wing of the hotel, a bit of a walk from the new wing, but once you're in the hotel, just grab a map and you'll find it. You can also take the opportunity to peek into the rooms and dining hall of this century-old ryokan. As for the room, it goes without saying that upon entering, you're greeted with a flood of green, which was quite a pleasant surprise. The only minor point is that the Hozawa River was a bit murky. I drove upstream along the river, and soon lost cell service, so it is quite remote, but definitely worth a visit. The two meals were decent, nothing spectacular but perfectly acceptable."

"The service is outstanding since my first step into the hotel. The room is big like i can run around. Breakfast is great. Plenty of good food served as japanese set. Onsen is really comfortable. I went there in summer that there were not many tourists. So sometime, there was only me in the onsen. It was very quiet peaceful and relaxing A mark for those who books for dinner excluded bundle. There are rarely any restaurant around. There is one in front of the street corner (5mins walk) but the opening time and date could not be expected.

"1、酒店迎接巴士從一關站前,建議還是預訂,否則有可能沒有大車,路程還是比較遠,約半小時。送行巴士可以到一關或者是平泉,也可以順路到嚴美溪。作為附近的旅遊中轉站其實很不錯。 2、酒店外風景很好,溪水顏色碧藍,很漂亮,温泉水質感覺也很不錯。有牛虻,要稍微注意。 3、餐食都是半自助,確實不怎麼樣,可以選擇的自助品種很少,相對來説主材選擇烤牛肉、壽喜燒最好,海鮮鍋和豬肉鍋都很一般。如果對餐食要求比較低,這裏真的不錯。 4、主樓房間視野很好,風景秀麗。 5、要注意提醒酒店當天要打掃房間,否則可能就不打掃了。"

"There are fewer hotels in Pingquan City itself. This is a quite retro and Showa-era hotel. Although the appearance is inconspicuous, the service, meals, interiors, etc. have not changed with the past of the times. The only downside is that Pingquan City itself is inconvenient for transportation, so if the hotel will be a little farther away in a tired situation (about 15 minutes), maybe you can contact the hotel to meet you? However, from the hotel to the station, the hotel has a special car transfer, which is very commendable."

"The location is beautiful and the views from the car park assured us we had chosen well. Check in was helpful and all facilities were fully explained at this time, allowing us to book our dining time. The room was comfortable and traditional; the view, amazing! With an afternoon of sunshine, time was taken to enjoy the view in a temperature controlled setting. There was a beautiful tea set and tea provided along with some complementary snacks and water. The toiletries provided were lovely and I shall certainly be looking to purchase these for my home. Dinner was a Chinese style buffet, with an excellent selection of dishes. Barbecues for the table and delicious sashimi and hand prepared sushi. Soups, stews, salad and more! To follow was an assortment of cakes and ice creams. Staff were very helpful and polite and the food was filling and delicious. We then retired to the hotel bar where we were again greeted by a lovely member of staff. Upon return to our room, futons had been prepared and the room made ready for sleep. These were surprisingly comfortable. Breakfast was also delicious with a huge array of dishes to choose from. Check out was simple and staff were helpful and polite. I will definitely be returning! I"

"Guide to the room and explanation were good. I booked a room on the second floor with a terrace, but I was sorry that there were a lot of insects and I couldn't use the terrace. When checking out, you will carry your suitcase yourself (from the 2nd floor to the 1st floor by stairs), so it is easier for travelers who stay consecutive nights or travel around to choose a room on the 1st floor. It was good to use a lot of ingredients for the dishes, but overall it was strong and heavy until the last dessert. You should think about balance a little more."

A group of four of us booked a cabin on a whim, and I’m so happy we did!! We did a two-day ski trip to Geto Kogen, and I cannot stress enough how convenient these cabins were to the resort itself. We stayed overnight in between two days at the resort. The drive up to the resort was less than 20 minutes. The cabin itself was super cozy, so comfortable, had great amenities for the short time we were there, and the staff were so kind and helpful. Everything was very clean, the heater was already on when we arrived, which was a very thoughtful touch, and we were able to hang all our snow gear to dry thanks to the copious amounts of hangars available. We felt it was a crazy good deal based on the price, location, and availability to book it just a few days in advance. We will definitely be back in the summer to use the grill and go golfing at the country club!

The B&B is very close to Appi Plateau and provides ski pick-up and drop-off services. At the same time, other employees are also asked to take care of the pick-up and drop-off, so there is no problem for the B&B to go to the ski resort for easy skiing. The more problematic thing is how to get to the B&B. If you need to take a bus to get your ski equipment, it is quite a distance from the bus station to the B&B. It would be difficult to push your luggage for 20 minutes in the snow. If you ask the B&B owner to pick you up at the JR station, you will need to call to communicate, and there are pick-up time restrictions. The website does not explain this clearly. In addition, the communication between trip.com and the B&B is not very smooth. You have to confirm your accommodation by phone in person. The owner is also a chef, so he doesn't reply to emails very often. Trip.com AI online customer service cannot help. I think it would be ideal to drive here by yourself. I had a good breakfast and was ready to go skiing. But dinner is very simple and may be a bit full for some people. The B&B provides discounted ski tickets and ski equipment. Overall, I would be willing to stay at this B&B again if the problem of getting to the B&B can be solved.

This time I booked Arts Color, but I actually lived in the main building of the boss's other restaurant Life is Beautful( It should be called Beautiful Life~), the homestay is about10-15 minutes walk from Anbi Ski Resort & Bailu Hot Spring, not too far away, the key homestay dinner seems simple, but super delicious, there is a French restaurant standard, In the morning 8-9 o'clock & afternoon 16-17 there is a free welcome (Anbi Station or Anbi Ski Resort), B1 there is a loan cut wind, just like the size of Yangming Mountain's personal hot spring, but it is really relaxing to soak after skiing the snow. There is also a beautiful and atmospheric API House bread cafe opposite the hotel. There is a ROCKY BBQ restaurant next door. On this night in the countryside, such a store has been counted a lot, because there is really no nightlife here at this night. You can consider going to the Bailu Hot Spring for a soup (open until 23:00). This is a personal trip. The cost of one berth and two meals is NT2100/day. I think it is very good value, it is recommended, I hope that I can visit again not too long.

This inn, though a bit old, is incredibly well-maintained and clean by the owner. What truly impressed me was that the affordable price included both breakfast and dinner, and you could genuinely feel the owner's passion in every dish. The owner was also very kind to drive guests to the train station, ski resort, school, or other places, which is a really unique touch. If you're traveling on a budget, you should definitely consider this thoughtful and affordable small inn! Lastly, I saw some comments saying the owner is a bit quiet, but I think that's absolutely fine! As long as they run the business with heart, guests will surely feel the sincerity. Thank you for your hospitality! I had a really nice stay here! Thank you!
