We were unsure about this hotel being it was older, but once we arrived, we knew we were in for a great time. We were greeted by what seemed like the whole staff as we entered and the service and attention never ceased the entire trip. The included breakfast and dinner buffet were incredible as were the onsen facilities. We will definitely be returning to this hotel in the future and will be sure to let all our friends and family know about this place as well.

Most things were good but considering we had a Western room, so many signs in the room were in Japanese only. All the Onsen , shops in the hotel and even outside the hotel especially a Tuesday were closed. There was no where to even buy a glass of water from 9am till 2pm. We couldn’t even book a family Onsen. Unfortunately the food and entertainment was the same when we were there for 3 nights in a row. The pillows were the worst I have ever slept on. The room were very clean but dated. Wifi was good. Staff were good.

Buffet was excellent with an enormous array of food. Private onsen was approx ¥3300 for 45minutes. There is quite a lot to do around the local area, we stayed one night but easily could have filled in two days.

This place was much different than I expected, it was a bit dated but the Japanese style room was very comfortable! And also the beds were comfy, we slept so well! The staff was incredible even though we had a language barrier and only a few of the staff members spoke English, it worked out totally great! Dinner and breakfast was included into our stay which was a nice surprise! It was incredible! We got to try little bites of Japanese cuisine which we otherwise would have not. They also had a few western bites as well! We were overwhelmed with amount of options and everything was delicious! We were about 40 minutes away from Nikko but it was easy to get around, took a taxi a couple times to get the train station early, buses doesn’t run continuously here. We had a lovely time and also used the private baths which were really nice!

There was a very loud fan noise outside of our window and it kept us awake the whole night. Both my friend and I work traveling and we heard jt. This property is very old and dated. The buffet was full of food however it was very mediocre. We shortened our stay from two nights to one night

After 7 days of busy touring around Tokyo this was exactly what we needed! Being surrounded by the lush green hills was lovely. The accommodation was great, we opted for a Japanese style room and it was wonderful. While we were enjoying the fantastic buffet our room was transformed with futons. The food was amazing, something for every taste, my teen sons had a wonderful time trying many different dishes over our stay.

Sub-standard 3* hotel for the price of a 5*. Difficulty the get in, far from all the nice attractions and the fact that the staff speaks very poor English, makes the experience more an adventure than anything else. Food was good, rooms were ok…did I mentioned I payed 5* price? The pictures on Orbitz look amazing thou.

We had a wonderful time at Kinugawa Onsen. The traditional Japanese rooms were wonderful and the breakfast and dinner buffet were wonderful. We also enjoyed the public baths, karaoke rooms, and reflexology massage. The gift shop was also lovely stocked. The views of the mountains and river from the rooms and floors were wonderful. Highly recommend if you want some low key, nature retreat from your visit to Japan.

As the only westerners that we saw at the Hotel, we had a fabulous “Japanese” experience. The staff went out of their way to welcome us and to help us with any requests. Room was well serviced each day. Beds were very comfortable. The half board was wonderful. The breakfast and dinner selections were endless. The food was fresh, well presented and the variety was exciting for us as we got to try many different Japanese foods we otherwise wouldn’t have had the opportunity to taste. We didn’t use the Onsen so can’t comment about that. There were drinks and snacks provided throughout the afternoon also. One of the nice things for us was being provided with the traditional Yukata to wear around the Hotel. Very comfortable and relaxing. A nice surprise was an evening performance by a Magician/Gymnast artist who was very entertaining. Although English was not generally spoken in the hotel, we had no problems communicating with staff as they went out of their way to help and understand any situation. We used Google translate for anything that was not understood by us or the hotel staff. Although not much around the immediate hotel for tourists, we had a car so it was the ideal, quiet location for us. Valet service for the car was efficient and quick. Can’t speak highly enough of this wonderful Hotel.
