Hotel Shirakawa dengan Kolam Renang

I recently had the opportunity to stay at an onsen hotel, and I must say, my experience was somewhat disappointing. While the hotel had many appealing features, several aspects fell short of expectations. Firstly, the hotel's policy requiring guests to walk barefoot or in socks was problematic due to the cleanliness of the floors. The surfaces did not seem well-maintained, which detracted from the overall experience. I was particularly let down by the private bath. The two only available tubs was filled with bleach, which was concerning and not suitable for relaxation. Additionally, there were no shower facilities provided for rinsing off before or after soaking in the onsen. This made the experience less enjoyable, as I couldn't clean myself immediately before or after enjoying the hot springs. Furthermore, the reservation system for the private baths was poorly organized. There was no clear queue, leading to confusion and frustration among guests who were waiting their turn. Overall, the taste of dinner and breakfast was average, but the environment and service was quite good. Although the hotel offered many attractions and amenities, the execution left much to be desired. Overall, my stay was a case of having high expectations that were not met. I hope the hotel can improve these aspects in the future to provide a better experience for its guests.

出發前一週臨時安排要去，看到這家跟一般飯店很不一樣的住宿體驗，決定賭一把，結果真是太感謝自己的選擇！搭高濃巴士到白川鄉（荻町）下車，在旅遊指南所請工作人員打電話通知飯店就會有人開車來接了，非常方便又安心。 整個建築空間都是挑高，環境舒適並有開闊的窗景，不論室內外景色都非常美麗。服務好，遊客少，泡溫泉、附近散步玩雪都像是包場一樣。 餐點大都是當地自產自消自製，法式晚餐非常精緻且美味😋 下次想在秋天再來，參加當地導遊帶領的登山健行團！

非常滿意的住宿體驗，晚餐跟次日早餐很美味，感受到料理人的細緻與細心，運用許多當地特有的食材，新鮮美味；雖然建築較老舊，但地板與家具擦得釉亮，廁所與浴室保持的非常乾淨，雖然地點較遠，但一路開車過來風景很宜人，窗外可看碧綠色的湖面，推薦！
