Tenkawa Hotels with Free Parking.

It is one of the hot spring hotels recommended by the official WeChat of the Japan National Tourism Administration and has a history of 500 years. Although it was already around 20 degrees in Osaka when we arrived, we were still lucky enough to catch the snow here and soak in the hot springs in the snow. I felt extremely happy. The room was comfortable and spacious. The tatami is very comfortable. Although the female staff doesn't know much English, she is very active in finding ways to communicate with guests. She is very friendly and dedicated. There is a large cherry blossom tree in the hotel courtyard that should be beautiful when it is in full bloom. The jazz lounge is so flavorful that you will not want to leave the hotel. Tianshan Village is very peaceful and a rare accommodation experience. Friends who arrive by bus don’t have to worry too much. The station where you get off is about a 7-minute walk from the hotel. Please feel free to call the hotel in advance and ask them to pick you up. The service is super good.

It was a calm hot spring town with a sense of history, and it was a wonderful inn with both buildings and hospitality. The room was very large and I was able to spend a relaxing time. The open-air bath in the room is a cypress bath, and the scent of cypress is comfortable, and I was able to take a relaxing bath while looking at the garden at my favorite time. The food was good and the food was served well, and it was very delicious. The breakfast was very delicious again. I was very satisfied with the preparation of dinner and breakfast in a private room. The staff were really kind, the service was attentive, the feelings were relaxed, and I had a good memory of my trip. Thank you very much.

This place was gorgeous. First thing first, I left the same day from Tokyo and managed to break my phone on my way there so I got lost and missed the last bus from the nearest town. I was able to call the Ryokan personnel and one of the employees (whose name I forgot) drove to there around 11pm and picked me up ♥ That in itself was incredibly sweet. The only (and when I say ''only''!!!) thing that was a bit...meh...Is that during my stay, the town was empty. Like, 3-4 people, I was so confused. But the town is incredibly beautiful, the hikes in the surrounding area are amazing, I could have spent hours laying on the ground in the temple area to listen to the sounds of water...The food included in my reservation was...to die for. Honestly, what I ate there (the dinner was my favorite) was the best food I ate in my life. The room I stayed in was so clean and stunning, the yukata was comfortable and the tea was delicious! The staff there was so friendly, I forgot their names but I would like to go back there next time I visit Japan for sure :) Next time though I will make sure to come back when there are more people :) So I can make more memories of this great place!

The room has a sense of age but is very clean and the service is very good. Next to Longquan Temple, the hotel's dinner and breakfast are very rich Facilities: Hot springs Hygienic: very clean Environment: The whole street is a hot spring hotel Service: Very warm, the bed has been laid after dinner, and the breakfast bed has been collected.

I did a one night stay and 2 nights before I go, I called the owner to request him to add breakfast and dinner to my booking. He mentioned that he could fix something simple if I didn't mind as his wife would be busy. He offered to pick me up from Shimoichiguchi station when he knew I was going by train. After picking me up, he brought me to a famous temple on the way. It was not somewhere I could visit without driving so I was appreciative. He explained that the house was left behind by his mother and he decided to convert it to a guesthouse last year. There is a famous shrine with a Noh stage within 10 mins walk from the guesthouse and I went there twice as there was a procession at 8am the next morning. There is also Amano river where waters are clear and fishermen can be seen occasionally. Dinner will eventually still prepared by the owner's wife. Food was fresh and delicious. I had beef stew with whole grain rice and several side dishes from the town. As the nearby onsen was closed until June, I decided to visit Dorogawa onsen during checkout. The owner offered to drive me there at no charges. The guesthouse was tastefully converted from a 2 century old house with a nice fusion of new and old. Guests could use the living area with stove heating, bar counter, bathroom and toilets. There are only 2 bedrooms so chances are, you can get some peaceful relaxation. The owner speaks limited English but he uses an electronic pocket tool to help him communicate with overseas guest. His room rates are very very reasonable and he and his wife are both very kind and friendly. They really go all out to make your stay pleasant so give the guesthouse a try. The owner heard I wanted to see stars though I told him I did not expect to since the weather forecast was cloudy. He checked the skies at 9pm and told me that some stars could be seen and took me to a dark stargazing spot nearby. I was happy as I managed to take some decent photos.

Totally exceeded expectations. Friendliest hosts, well maintained, and superb food. Incredible value for money considering the establishment is in the Michelin guide. Traditional breakfast and dinner included, which was superb. When we left a bag behind, owner drove with the bag until he caught up to us. Could not recommend more highly.
