Hotel Kusatsu dengan Sarapan

Great ryokan stay while visiting Kusatsu. The staff are very friendly, helpful and they try their best to answer our questions. The location is great, walking distance to the bus station, the center of the hotspring attraction and the famous public onsen. The hotel onsen and bathing room are small. But we took showers when we enjoyed the public onsen. Simple breakfast is provided daily, not lunch & dinner. There are lots of restaurants and street foods are available on the streets. This ryokan is a great Japanese experience. Note: some restaurants closed very early for dinner.

Skala hotel ini tidak besar Saya menempah hotel ini kerana penilaiannya yang sangat tinggi. Hotel ini harus diselenggara dan diubah suai dengan kerap. Ia tidak berasa lama, tetapi antik.

It’s a bit hard to get to the hotel from bus terminal if u have luggage with u as it’s a downslope to get to the hotel. There’s also isn’t any lift in the hotel so we have to carry our luggage up to the second floor. We realised when we checked out that there’s actually locker for the luggage at the ground floor. There’s only one type of water in their public onsen which is kind of disappointing as we have high expectations since it is an onsen town. The onsen water however is good. We do feel some difference before and after onsen. There’s also free coffee & hot chocolate drinks right outside the onsen area. It would be better if there’s ice water in the onsen area as the water can get very hot & especially when there’s no cold tub there. The room however is spacious with comfortable bed. There’s also a foot bath located at the ground floor of the hotel right beside the breakfast area.

We stayed here for 4nights and enjoyed the convenience of this place. We had a rented car and parking was easy. Room was spacious and heating was very good especially in winter nights. The owners gave us free breakfast on a Sunday and it was very nice gesture. The staff and owner tried their very best to make us feel comfortable, and they are the only ones in Kusatsu that speak a little bit of English to us. All in all, this place was very convenient and fairly accessible. Thanks for having us, will surely return.

Took JR express to Kusatsu. From train terminal take a 25 mins bus to Kusatsu bus terminal. There is a shuttle to bus terminal upon request. Take less than 3 mins to reach bus terminal. If walk, then you may take longer times. I booked half boards. Dinner included. The dinner is super good. Free flow of rice, soup n side condiment. Breakfast was Okies. Takeaway coffee cups prepare for you. I specially love the onsen. Robe n slippers had prepared in room for your usage. Kusatsu is a place to have a short getaway from Tokyo.

This ryokan is close to the bus terminal and main square yet not too massively big. There were still crowd control with limit on maximum number of person in each onsen so it was a pleasant experience with about 3-4 persons in the onsen when we visit during our stay. Dinner and breakfast (excellent) were delicious. Only 1 check-in/out staff speaks minimal English and she used google translate to help during communication - we managed fine. Meals were in private dinning room and staff who spoke good English explained the various courses. A pleasant experience. We stayed in the traditional room without bath and it was clean and comfortable. Would recommend!

チェックイン時刻よりも20分前だったが、門前の係の方が笑顔で出迎えてくれて荷物を預かりフロントまで案内、受付の係の方も笑顔で快くすぐに手続きしてくれました。その他の係の方も皆さん笑顔で挨拶してくれる心地良いお宿でした。色々なお風呂が楽しめて、中でも濁り湯の露天からの雪見風呂は最高でした。部屋はコンパクトで古さは否めませんが、笑顔のおもてなしとサービスで満足です。ご飯も板前さんが目の前で作ってくれる揚げたての天麩羅やおっ切り込み汁など美味しく楽しめました。

11月28日に一泊しました。 予約は草津ホテルのHP。 一泊二食付き、本館角部屋を予約しました。 草津温泉バスターミナルからは、お宿の車で送迎していただけます。 草津ホテルは、西の河原公園入口の高台に建築された木造3階建の美しい和風旅館。 趣きのある館内は、とっても良い雰囲気です。 さりげなく置かれたアンティークの調度品、飾られている生花などは控えめで美しさ。 片岡鶴太郎さんの書や絵も展示されていました。 隣接する片岡鶴太郎美術館は、草津ホテルが運営されているようです。 本館3階の角部屋は、コーナー2面が窓に囲まれた見晴らしの良いお部屋でした。昔ながらの木枠の窓が良い感じです。 前日降った雪のおかげで、草津の雪景色を堪能できました。 2020に増築された食事処の「奥庭」は、和テイストを残しながらもモダンで明るい雰囲気。 朝夕のお食事は、盛り付けも美しく、新鮮な食材を使ったお料理は全て美味しくいただけました。 大浴場(露天ふたつ湯）こちらも新しい別棟に有ります。 開放感に溢れ、清潔に保たれています。源泉掛け流しの大きな内風呂と併設されている露天風呂共に、さすが草津！とっても気持ちの良いお湯でした。（西の河原源泉） 草津ホテル、口コミどおりの素晴らしいお宿で大満足！

出張した際の宿泊先として利用しました。 草津温泉湯畑から歩いて行ける距離にある宿で、人気なのも納得な宿の造り込みとサービス、そして湯加減でした。 チェックインをした際に担当してくださったのが外国人女性スタッフでしたが、とても丁寧に親切に説明してくださり、受付だけでなく部屋への案内までもおもてなしの気持ちがしっかり伝わりました。 部屋の雰囲気も良く、居心地は抜群。 ディナーはバイキングで、寿司や本マグロのお刺身、天ぷらなどといった和食、ポークステーキやローストビーフ、ラクレットチーズやピザなどといった洋食に麻婆豆腐などの中華料理など様々な料理が楽しめる贅沢なバイキングでした。 飲み放題が2750円で注文できたのでひたすら生ビールを注文。 生ビールはアサヒスーパードライかキリン一番搾りかで選べますが、どちらかというとアサヒスーパードライ派なので飲んでは注文、飲んでは注文とハイペースで飲みながらお寿司や天ぷら、ステーキをメインにひたすら食べ続けました。 お寿司は本マグロや真鯛、カンパチやサーモンなど僕好みのラインナップで、ややシャリが多めですがどれも本当に美味しくてバイキングなのに鮮度の良さすら感じてしまう程。 ポークステーキは焼きたてを楽しめるので美味しくいただけましたし、山菜の天ぷらも揚げたてで美味。 色々食べた中でのMVPはやはりお寿司ですかね…！ なんならお寿司9割他1割ぐらいでも良かったと思える程美味しかったです。 ガッツリ飲み食いした後の温泉も最高。 大満足の内容でした。 ご馳走様でした。

Location - about 10min walk from the bus terminal at Kusatsu station. Walkable unless it's snowy or froze on the ground as part of the path is quite steep to walk up. Not hard to find as the town is quite close to everything. About 15min walk to yubatake for the famous onsen for pictures and local food and snacks. You can walk to the Sainokawara Onsen(open air public onsen) for about 8min which is located just behind the hotel itself. Service - they do provide transport to and from Yubatake with a specific timetable. They also have an open luggage area at the main hall if you area before check-in you could just leave the luggage and explore the town. They also have separate gender onsen with both indoor and outdoor facilities. They came around 7pm to my room to offer to set up my sleeping mattress. The dinner time was 6.45pm to 8pm and they may vary between seasons. You will be located in a seat in the dining room so don't worry about the crowd and having to fight for your seat. It's buffet style food and I read previous comments about food being cold. They aren't cold as it was heated around 60c ish but the moment food leaves the Bain Marie it will become cold especially during winter. Alcohol is included but you need to be 18 years old. They will start closing some stations including soft serve around 7.30pm so do get there earlier. Cleanliness - just an older building and maintenance pretty ok. You could tell from the design it's a bit outdated but it wasn't dirty or messy. Amenities - they have a Japanese sleep/bath robe at the main hall for guests to take if you need. There's no wifi in the room unfortunately and the only free wifi provided by the hotel is just located down at the main hall. I was given a Japanese style room which is pretty standard. It was on the 7th floor so it came with a pretty good view.
