"Our family enjoyed staying in the quiet countryside. The reservation includes a breakfast and dinner buffer, which was delicious. They also have complimentary drinks and snacks from 3 to 6pm. The hot springs felt relaxing as well. The hotel is isolated, and the nearest convenient store is a 10 minute walk away, but the trees and mountains really make you feel immersed in nature. Great reset from the hustle and bustle of city life."

"Very nice “classic” style older hotel kept up very well. The bed and pillows were comfortable, the view of the gorge (river) was great, and the dinner and breakfast absolutely delicious. Unfortunately I have a tattoo that is bigger than “one point” (palm size) so was not able to use the onsen. I wish the hotel would reconsider tattoo policy because it is so common for people from all countries including Japan to have tattoo art. This is the only reason why I could not give overall 5 stars."

"I stayed only for one night but the hotel was excellent, staff were helpful, spacious Japanese style room. A bit of walk from the Kinugawa Onsen Station but it is a nice walk. I will stay again if I am in the area again."

"Peaceful and quiet. Use of private onsen. Not too far from the train station or close shops. Houses are more in the traditional sense which is great. Just have to walk uphill a little bit to reach the accommodation. Fine if a youngster or fit enough. Got a lift to the station when checking out as well. How good? Early June for 2 nights for 2 of us. Reasonable price for the experience."

"The area around the property was really beautiful. Several things to do, we went to the monkey show which was interesting and to Edo Wonderland, which was very cool. However, this hotel is very old and needs to be updated. The outdoor bath was nice."

Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Kinugawa Kanko Hotel
6/10 Okay
"Sato san was very helpful and spoke good English. He explained to me everything clearly. I don't know why this is called a "premium" hotel as dining was limited to 90 minutes, but at the other hotel, which was not a premium, I did not have a time limit.
Food was similar to the other non-premium hotels, except that their breakfast menu had slightly fewer variety. Their dinner and free refreshments include alcohol.
What I loved about this ryokan is the onsen - they have different pools of onsen which was excellent. And the rooms are huge and newly renovated. I had a good view of the stream too. That was nice.
What I did not like - the parking is not really on site. It is next to the hotel."

"Asaya Hotel is not only our favorite hotel in Kinugawa Onsen — it is honestly the main reason we return to Kinugawa Onsen at least once a year. Every stay reminds us why this hotel is so special.
We love the beautiful onsen facilities, especially the public baths with their larger and more spacious atmosphere. I personally prefer the public onsens, where I can fully relax and enjoy the traditional hot spring experience. My wife, on the other hand, especially enjoyed the private hot spring bath in our room, which she used throughout our stay. Having that private bath made the experience even more relaxing and convenient.
The food is another major highlight. Both the breakfast and dinner buffets are excellent, with a wide variety of choices and consistently good quality. The buffet experience is one of the things we always look forward to whenever we stay here.
Most importantly, the staff are genuinely friendly, professional, and caring. On the day of our departure, the taxi we had reserved was cancelled without our knowledge. Instead of simply apologizing or leaving us to figure it out, the hotel staff personally drove us to the train station. That level of hospitality really touched us and showed the heart of Japanese omotenashi service.
Asaya Hotel continues to be our “only hotel” choice whenever we visit Kinugawa Onsen. Between the onsens, the food, the service, and the warm hospitality, it truly feels like a place worth coming back to every year."
