    communication issues

    The amenities were impressive, particularly the

    private onsen options, which we enjoyed immensely. The room was spacious and beautifully designed, but we faced some issues with communication regarding our dinner reservations, which caused unnecessary stress during our stay.

    Incredible variety of private baths, beautiful riverside view, unique onsen experience

    No bath in the room was disappointing!!! Also, if you're taller than average, bring your own sandals because theirs don't accommodate larger sizes!!!

    great service
    fun activities
    unwelcoming staff

    Had an amazing time with friends! The private onsens were fantastic, and we also enjoyed some table tennis. The service was top-notch, and the overall vibe was relaxing. I highly recommend checking out the outdoor onsens for a unique experience.

    One downside was the front desk staff. they weren’t as welcoming during check-in, which put a bit of a damper on our arrival.

    The private baths here were fantastic! We loved having our own space, especially the unique options available. The spacious deluxe room fit our family well, and it was a treat to enjoy traditional cuisine in our private dining area with our dog by our side.

    In my wife’s opinion, clearer communication about meals would enhance the experience for families.

    Incredible Onsen Experience!

    My stay was exceptional, with the highlight being the private onsen baths that provided a serene escape. The food was beyond delicious, especially the breakfast with fresh local ingredients. Although the check-in experience was a bit lacking in warmth, the overall service was great and the facilities were well-kept.

    Yamabiko Ryokan is a fantastic getaway! The spacious Deluxe Japanese-style room had a cozy corner perfect for relaxing. We loved that dinner was served in our own dining space, allowing for a private dining experience. The open-air hot spring bath, made from beautiful stones, was truly a highlight.

    exceptional hospitality
    river view
    limited space

    great onsen experience but limited room space

    The hospitality exceeded my expectations. The range of different types of onsen provided a unique experience for my family. We particularly enjoyed the stunning flavors of the set dinner and breakfast, which left us wanting more. The river view added a serene touch to our stay.

    However, the room felt a bit cramped for our family size.
