    “I thought I would like to stay again next year.”

    The service was wonderful from the moment we arrived, the facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the view from the room was excellent – it was the best! We visited as a maternity trip since we are expecting a baby in the summer. I felt reassured because there were baby food options and baby items available in the bath. I would love to visit again with my family next year!

    “Family trip”

    I arrived earlier than the check-in time, but they welcomed me warmly. After checking in, there were sweets and drinks in the lobby, which made me very happy! The hot springs were spacious, and there were many options including indoor and outdoor baths and a sauna, allowing me to relax thoroughly! My room was not riverside, but I was able to see the cherry blossoms, which was nice! The buffet had a wide variety of Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes, along with desserts, satisfying both children and adults! The room felt a bit older than I had expected, but in a way that was nice. The hospitality from the staff was also very pleasant, creating wonderful memories for my family.

    “The buffet for dinner and breakfast is delicious.”

    The natural sound of the Kinu River is soothing. The view from the hotel was also great. The room is spacious and clean. I was surprised by the variety of dishes at the dinner and breakfast buffet. Each dish tastes delicious. The tempura, miso soup, pizza, omelets, and roast beef are cooked on the spot, so you can enjoy them fresh. The hot spring has open-air baths and various tubs, and it is wide and clean. The staff was friendly and attentive.

    “Exceptional”

    We used the service together. We arrived earlier than check-in time, but they kindly assisted us with luggage storage and transportation, and even lent us umbrellas since it was snowing. The cleanliness and spaciousness of the room were good, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious. Additionally, there was a shuttle service to the station after check-out, making for a comfortable trip. We would definitely like to use it again.

    “The Viking is the best.”

    There were many items in the buffet, and I couldn't conquer them all. The taste was also good. For breakfast, I could have my favorite rice balls made for me, and the fresh French toast was delicious. The room was a Japanese-style room, but it was spacious enough and more than adequate.
