A kind of weird but in the end interesting combination of hotel and observatory. They take their role seriously and have quite some knowledge about astronomy.

It was amazing. I learned a lot of astronomy knowledge through the explanation. The telescope was very hardcore. I saw the moon, Jupiter and Mars on the same day. You can also see satellites of Jupiter. The dinner was great. The steak was fried just right. The asparagus was also super delicious, better than the tempura I had in Fukuoka Kumamoto. The milk pudding was very delicious, super tender and super milky. The breakfast was also super delicious, a very good experience.

The design is very calming and stylish. It was a shame that it was cloudy and the sky wasn't completely clear, but the space class with the giant telescope and planetarium was amazing.

It is an old American building. Dinner reservations need to be made three days in advance. The breakfast at 8 o'clock has a great atmosphere and tastes good. The stargazing activity at 8 o'clock in the evening is a great experience, which makes up for the lack of hardware. It is worth a visit.

Although the building is old, it is clean and tidy overall, and the functions are well maintained. The breakfast is rich, and there are small surprises. You can feel the staff's attentiveness everywhere. The night stargazing itinerary is divided into three parts. There are star explanations, which are very three-dimensional and relaxing like in a 3D cinema, there are astronomical telescopes to actually watch the stars, and there is the experience of lying on the prairie and admiring the moon and stars like camping. The overall feeling is very rich and touching. It is worth staying here for one night. Be sure to come when the weather is good.

The environment is quiet and comfortable, far away from the city, and it is a good place for stargazing. The hotel staff are attentive and professional, most of whom are astronomy experts.
