It was very comfortable, beds 10/10, they were very cosy and kept us warm and also include an electric blanket. Two of the 3 of us were from hot and sunny Qld Australia and our son brought us to Kusatsu Onsen at a time when it was very cold and snowing. It was exceptionally wonderful time to visit when it snowed.
The onsens in the hotel were great as well as the ones in the park and town.

First traditional onsen ryokan experience for me and my Aussie partner. We were absolutely stunned by how elegant and detailed of food was. It was lucky that Tokyo snowed few days ago so we get to see snow covering Kusatsu. We bathed in the onsen admiring how unreal the view was with snow. Brilliant service too but the front desk can barely speak English.

The hotel just cancel our booking without contact us personally, they simply email me which I had missed as it ended up in the junk box. We drove 2 hours from Nagano and when we arrived in the dark, they just leave a message at the door saying the the property is closed due water pump issue! It took us a long time to find another accommodation in Kusatsu as nearly all of them require advance booking!

Love the private onsen. Well designed and spacious of the room. Hotel even provide a small bottle of champagne for us. What we see on the website regarding the room and the hotel surrounding is exactly what we see when we there. 👍
We also love the public onsen where there is indoor and outdoor.
Love the unlimited snow crab dinner buffet.
Hotel also has a lot of nice, comfortable resting area.
Love the hotel able to provide transport to bus terminal and Yabatake town.
Built in 1913, the Kusatsu Hotel exhibits the architectural style of the Japanese Taisho Era.

Good location. On a quiet spot at the end of the main street of the town and right at the entrance of the country park. We took about 15 minutes to walk from the train station. But the ryokan also provided pick up and drop off service. Our room was spacious, comfortable and spotless clean. Excellent indoor and open air bath with spring water from 2 famous origins. Must try them all. The staff who served us were very good and helpful. We loved its relaxation room which provided freshly boil coffee and foot hot spring bath.

I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel. It is nestled in the mountains, a gorgeous drive from Tokyo (If you have the time, drive!) Many places to drop in for a foot soak, lots of little shops and restaurants. Prepare to wait in the busy season (which I believe is the fall and winter). This time we stayed in a traditional Japanese hotel with tatami and only futons for sleeping- being from the US, this made the trip especially fun but make sure you are ok with getting up and down from the floor. There are less people who speak English than in the major cities. But if you are comfortable pointing and smiling and trying google translate, it is a beautiful place to visit. Note that people with limited mobility may find the town difficult to navigate (steps and steep hills). Better for adults, but there is a little tropical zoo nearby and the onsen demonstration is fun.

Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter.
Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter. We went in February and it was snowing. Family love it so much that we’re planning to visit for next winter. A lot of private hot spring and delicious food. We had kaiseki for breakfast and dinner at our ryokan. Definitely worth the trip and ain’t too far from Tokyo. Stay a night if possible.

If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-...
If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-spring town in the mountains then, Kusatsu is the place for you. It takes a while to get there with the train and bus but if you have the time then I would recommend it. The culture surrounding hot-springs is unique to the Japanese and there is no better place to experience it.
Get early there for a day trip because most buses coming down to the train station stop running around 7 PM.

Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings.
Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings. Great Onsen. Its best to go for relaxation purpose and take a dip in the hotsprings. The places to look out for are 1) Yubatake (center of the town) - Please do visit in the evenings as well when the lights turn ON and make it a beautiful view.
2) Sainokawara Park and Open air Onsen. This is a must visit place to spend good walk in the park and then visit Open air Onsen
JR Bus station is very close to center - Yubatake. So it's just a 5mins walk and also there are round trip bus by JR to all sightseeing spots. Most of the resorts offer shuttle bus service also; so I recommend to check with your resort before booking. This really helped us.
The food is next best thing in Kusatsu. However if you are Vegetarian like us you might find difficulty to find good restaurants. However, there are a couple of Italian restaurants that offer good pasta and pizza which is loaded with vegetables.
One major thing to note is the Bus service from Kusatsu Bus station to Nagonahara Kusatsuguchi. The bus service is not regular; so please check it and plan your outbound trip.

The Yubatake area is picturesque and has many nearby shops with Japanese treats you can take out and eat/drink while sitting and enjoying the ambiance of Yubatake. Lots of traditional Japanese buildings, walkable streets with shops selling souvenirs and Japanese treats. Be sure to take the 10min walk from Yubatake thru Sainokawahara Koen (Park) to the large outdoor hot spring bath Sainokawhara Rotenburo.

The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs.
The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs. I have tried various ones, Kusatsu hot springs are relaxing and the the feeling is wonderful.
The food in the town is delicious, I tried Udon with Tempura in some places, it was just delicious.
Don’t forget to try the onsen tamago as a speciality of the town.
Food was excellent. Both breakfast and dinner were buffet with lots of variety and excellent quality. Two chefs at dinner preparing tempura and meats, they were the best very friendly real service with a smile.
Beds were very comfortable.
Catch a taxi from the bus station to the hotel. The hotel is an easy walk to the centre but don’t be fooled by the distance and try to haul your bags up the hill.
The onsens in the town are superb.
First traditional onsen ryokan experience for me and my Aussie partner. We were absolutely stunned by how elegant and detailed of food was. It was lucky that Tokyo snowed few days ago so we get to see snow covering Kusatsu. We bathed in the onsen admiring how unreal the view was with snow. Brilliant service too but the front desk can barely speak English.
One of the best places I stayed in Japan. The facilities were very clean, the staff was helpful and friendly and the ryokan's onsen was amazing. Never slept on a futon before but this one was very comfortable. There are a lot of things to do around Kusatsu so, I highly recommend staying at least one night. Just 5-10 min walking from the bus station.
Comfortable and clean rooms with good beds. Receptionist DC was very friendly and provided good service and information. Basic breakfast was adequate especially the freshly made strawberry banana smoothie. Very good location, few minutes walk to the yubatake area and yet very quiet. Good value especially for a Saturday night in Kusatsu Onsen.
1. The location is superb, located next to the bus station and has Lawson in front of the hotel. Just less than 5 mins walk to downtown.
2. The onsen is so private and the hot spring water is incredible.
3. The breakfast set (Western style) is awesome. Even I expect to get a Japanese-style breakfast.
Location was good. There’s a public bath and free face and leg onsen right next door. Walking distance to Yubatake.
Like the fact that there’s private and public onsen options too in the hotel for those who are feeling shy.
Food prepared was very delicious and good portion!
Loved our stay here! The room had plenty of space, bath was beautiful, beds were comfy, and a nintendo was included for fun!! Loved the private onsens!!! Yummy breakfast and dinner. The staff was so friendly and nice! Public/common area had a lot of fun/entertaining things.
Kind and attentive host, tasteful furnishing, everywhere seems the ownership spirit of the 5 generations (as we learned). English fluently spoken. The famous Kusatsu hot water in the house onsen. 1st class futon beds. Could not choose any better.
Amazing room with a amazing staff!! The room was incredible, with everything you could ask for and more, the private bath was wonderful and the beds were great! Truly an experience if you want to relax and enjoy Kusatsu Onsen.
The hotel are nice and clean, we love the onsen and we pay extra for private onsen too. Dinner and breakfast are good test and quality. The staff are helpful and polite also they have staff who speak English very well too.
A lovely spacious room in a very conveniently located hotel. Well worth making a booking for a private open air onsen bath - the space on the rooftop was so nice. Breakfast set was amazing and beautifully presented.
The location was good. It's at the main attraction in Kusatsu area. The staff spoke to me in English when I struggled to speak in Japanese. The onsen/spa is authentic Kusatsu onsen. The yukata were so cute.
Very kind hotel manager doing a lot of the work. The room was also very very clean! I liked the cute towel baskets we could take with us to the onsen. The breakfast was very balanced and delicious!
Location is about 15mins walk to main attraction. But hotel provide shuttle service to main attraction and bus terminal, which is great. Love the outdoor onsen, service staff is also excellent.
We went during the off-season in mid-November. The hotel was mostly empty. We didn't need to reserve the private onsen because the public one was empty the entire time. It was great!
