forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.59 out of 5 (1,360 reviews). Guests praise the live kitchen, where hot dishes are cooked for them on the spot, and the roomwear provided, which makes going back and forth to the onsen easy. The all-inclusive stay also comes with a generous all-you-can-drink selection. On the other hand, some guests felt the communal bath was small for a hotel of this size.
