Hotels mit Bergblick in Agatsuma District

We had an exceptional stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating, patiently waiting for us despite our late arrival and proactively reaching out via email to ensure everything was set. The hotel is spotlessly clean, the surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful with a natural charm, and the onsen was a delightful experience. The beds were also wonderfully comfortable, making our stay truly relaxing. Highly recommend this gem!

Unser Übernachtung in diesem Hotel in Kusatsu war einfach das beste, was wir in Japan erlebt haben. Wir kamen ein wenig früh und wir konnten vor 3 anmelden, da es ein Zimmer zur Verfügung stand. Der Service war ausgezeichnet, und das Zimmer war geräumig, komplett mit allen Einrichtungen, die wir brauchten. Obwohl die Dusche in den Untergeschoss im privaten Wachsen gelegen war, war es nie besetzt, und ich hatte das Wachsen alle für mich. Das Hotel bietet uns auch Yukatas, und wir haben einen schönen traditionellen Kontakt zu unserem Aufenthalt. Das Frühstück wurde morgens in unserem Zimmer serviert, und das Personal hat unsere Anfrage nach einer Änderung der Frühstückszeit genießend begegnen, da wir einen Onsen besuchen wollten, der um 9 Uhr eröffnet wurde. Das Hotel war unglaublich sauber und wir schliefen wie Babys die Nacht. Ich möchte hier beim nächsten Besuch von Grassland nochmal bleiben. Das ist ein sehr guter Ort, danke 😊❤️

We stayed at Naraya Ryokan as a family of four for two nights and three days, and the experience exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived. We were greeted immediately upon check in, and the staff took time to clearly explain the facilities, meals, and schedule, making the entire process smooth and welcoming. We personally communicated with the staff in Japanese, which made interactions especially seamless. We also observed the staff making genuine efforts to assist other guests in English. While English is not their first language, their willingness to accommodate and ensure guests felt comfortable was evident and appreciated. The ryokan itself is beautifully maintained, offering a calm and traditional atmosphere with thoughtful details throughout. One highlight not to be missed is the coffee spot attached to the lobby, which is an excellent place to relax. Their take on affogato is especially memorable and well worth trying. Dining at Naraya Ryokan is a traditional set menu experience that showcases seasonal Japanese cuisine. Guests should be prepared to enjoy authentic, traditional dishes that reflect regional ingredients and seasonal flavors. Each meal felt carefully prepared and added depth to the overall ryokan experience. Our stay felt unhurried and restorative, and we would have gladly stayed an additional night if our itinerary had allowed. Naraya Ryokan comes highly recommended, and we would happily return for another stay in the future.

Amazingly furnished cabin in the woods with all the modern luxuries including even a modern fireplace (to be fired up by wood chops or logs). I really liked the eco friendly materials that were used to make the interior that felt luxurious. People in the know will notice the Karimoku Case right away (amazed that it was custom for Sanu!) Although the translation for the English instructions can be a bit confusing, I checked in with ease. Luggage will be an issue as there will be no ramp up at least from what we saw, the only minor quip I had.

Room & vibes Stayed in a traditional tatami room and it was so Japanese in the best way – futon, tatami smell, the whole ryokan fantasy. Super cosy, perfect if you’re here to soak, chill, and live your best onsen‑town main‑character life. Buildings & facilities Hotel has three blocks, all connected via the main building, so you’ll always pass through it anyway. Most of the good stuff – hot springs, buffet etc. – is in the Annex building where I stayed, so it was really convenient, just no Yubatake view (that’s only for the main building rooms). Location & mini shopping zone They literally have their own shopping area on the first floor of the main building, right by Yubatake and the hot spring street, so you can roll out of the hotel in yukata and start browsing. Super easy to snack, shop, then hop back into the onsen without feeling like you “went out”. Transport & walking in snow There’s a shuttle bus to the nearest public transport stop, so luggage days are easy. You can walk it in under 10 minutes, but in snow season the road gets icy and crazy slippery, so honestly not recommended unless you trust your shoes (and your balance). Staff & service energy Hotel staff are amazing – super friendly and actually proactive. Besides Japanese and English, some staff speak Mandarin and will just switch to it to help you out, and they’ll even offer to take photos for you before you have the chance to ask, which is perfect for solo or shy travellers.

Obwohl es etwas außerhalb des Stadtzentrums liegt, war es ein ruhiges und komfortables Gasthaus. Das Essen war köstlich, und das Joshu-Rindfleisch-Sukiyaki war ein unvergessliches Geschmackserlebnis. Otaki no Yu, eine der drei heißen Quellen des Pilgerwegs, befindet sich direkt gegenüber, sodass man alle drei bequem besuchen kann. Es war etwas schade, dass das große öffentliche Bad so klein war, aber es war trotzdem sehr entspannend.

We stayed 1 night at Kusatsu Onsen hotel village. It's indeed a resort which offers many activities (table tennis, bowling, game arcade etc.) and a separate spa center with swimming pool and sauna. We didn't bother to step out the hotel until we had to leave Kusatsu. The dinner and breakfast buffet were delicious too. There is shampoo and bathing tools for babies in the ladies bath. I believe it's suitable for family with young children.

The hotel is very popular among the Japanese traveller. Lots of Japanese with very limited foreign traveller. The communication can be a bit difficult at the hotel. The room were cleaned but there is limitation of daily cleaning of the room. They only take trash out and change towels. The policy is to clean the room every 4 days. When the hotel is fully occupied, there is a problem with the scarcity of hot water. We have to wait for hot water to be reproducing 2 out of 3 nights we stayed. The buffet is very crowded and the food are pretty much the same for all 3 nights we stayed for both breakfast and dinner. Our highlights are the crab and the beef station for dinner and the live onigiri station for breakfast.

Absolut schöne Lage und mehrere heiße Quellen! Das Frühstücksbuffet war exquisit ebenso wie das mehrgängige Abendessen. Leider konnten wir nur eine Nacht bleiben, aber morgens aufzuwachen und wunderschöne Schneegestöber umgeben von Bergen zu sehen, war viel magischer und unvergesslicher, als ich es mir vorgestellt hatte! Während unseres Aufenthalts habe ich sogar meine Kamera verloren und die Angestellten waren so nett, den Berg hinunter zu gehen und sie mir am Flughafen zu schicken, mit den Angestellten am Flughafen Japanisch zu sprechen, um mir zu helfen, sie zu finden, und ich bin für ihre Freundlichkeit für immer dankbar? und Dienst. Wenn ich meine Kamera verloren hätte, hätte ich alle meine Fotos und Videos von der Reise verloren! Die Angestellten sprechen Chinesisch und fließend Englisch und so war es wirklich einfach, mit ihnen zu kommunizieren. Werde auf jeden Fall wiederkommen!! Danke Shima Tamura!

Booked the Japanese style room with toilet. Shower room has to be shared on the 2nd floor. Room has no amenities at all. Basic hair dryer and hot flask are in the communal area. We had to set up the bed ourselves. Room was dusty and was freezing cold even tho there was heater from the air con on winter’s night. There’s instructions to learn how to kill the stink bugs. The hotel facilities are good but the overall experience wasn’t good.
