Kusatsu

Short Story: A great onsen experience! Long Story: We stayed here for one night to have an onsen experience. We were not disappointed. We got a room with a private onsen and the temperature was really hot! The employees there are super friendly. They help you take your luggage to your room. They also provide you with the clothing necessary to walk around the town there. The food (both dinner and breakfast) are fantastic! It feels like it was made by hand. The portions seem endless and we both could not finish. The room is pretty sizable and you do sleep on a mat which is on the floor. The private hot spring is a good size for 2 people. Outside the hotel there are shops and restaurants to visit as well. Verdict: I can't wait to go back!

It's a beautiful and sometimes pricey hot springs resort. Hard to complain. Hotel will cater to your needs. Three baths from two different sources. Nice outside views on at least two of them. Meals are often in your room. Close to the center of the area. A two minute walk. Our room had a bath in it which kicked the price up bit was worth it in the end even though rooms are close to bath entrances. Definitely a more upscale hotel for the area.
