Hotel Kawakyu in Nanki Shirahama Onsen, resembling an ancient castle

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Shirahama Resort's Best My impressions after staying at [Nanki Shirahama Onsen Hotel Kawakyu] ☆ This castle-like hotel stands out in Shirahama. The total construction cost was 40 billion yen! Everything is luxurious, and it really looks like a renovated castle. Not only the exterior, but also the huge space, 24 blue pillars, and gold leaf ceiling are overwhelming. It is said that each blue pillar cost 100 million yen. You can also enjoy the art exhibits on the 1st and 2nd floors ♪ There are several [lounges]. The "Lounge Sphinx" on the 2nd floor, which we used, is a special space like a hideaway that can be entered with a special card key. When you go inside, it has a retro atmosphere, and it was fun with beer, wine, soft drinks, and snacks ♪ It was quite empty, and we had the place to ourselves. This is my third time staying here, and the concept of each room is amazing! The atmosphere is completely different, so I look forward to it every time. The Modern Japanese Suite is recommended for small children and the elderly, as you can take your shoes off! The Japanese-style room and bedroom are separate and quite spacious! It was a new and beautiful room. The Presidential Maisonette is a room that makes you feel like a princess. The first floor is the main area, including the bedroom, and the second floor has an esthetic room, a rock sauna, and even an audio room. You can actually have an esthetic treatment and a rock sauna in your own room! You can choose the aroma oil for the esthetic treatment, and it was a blissful time with an all-hand treatment. The room has aged over time, but it is clean and gorgeous. Kawakyu Suite It was a cute room that made me feel like I was staying in a hotel in an old European castle. This room is more than enough! Hot springs and pools There are two hot springs, and I was very satisfied. The new spa is beautiful! There is even ice cream to enjoy after the bath^^ The pool was cold except in the summer, so I couldn't go in. [Food] You should definitely try the "King's Buffet" at night! There were so many different types that it was impossible to eat everything, but the Wagyu steaks cooked right in front of you were very tender, the tempura was fresh, and the sushi and sashimi were fresh and delicious. I also liked the various appetizers served on small plates☆ Both the Western and Japanese food were delicious, so I was very satisfied. I also enjoyed the sweets. I look forward to the live dessert every time♪ The dinner was so good that I don't remember the morning buffet. lol No matter how many times I've stayed here, it's the best hotel I'd like to stay at again.
