Ichiryukaku Honkan

The "newest" hotel in the area ... it's not very new. It feels like Circus Circus in Reno or Las Vegas (sorry that's probably not that helpful for you as a reference, basically feels old). At ¥6,888 the price can't be beat. There is a pretty bad breakfast and dinner buffet. The clientele when I was visiting were all seniors, probably around 70 or 80 enjoying their retirement. Pluses: The place has 3 karaoke rooms and all you can drink beer and whiskey (during dinner, obv the important part).

The cheap grade room in the old building was useless because it smelled of cigarettes 😰 Of course, there was no view even if I opened the window, it was like a dungeon. Vijiho's smoking room may be many times better. .. .. I'm sure a room with a higher grade is good? This evaluation is because the hot springs and meals are decent. Next time I will upgrade the room or not use it. .. ..

A hot spring inn in a wonderful location overlooking the source of Kawaji Onsen. There are two hot springs, an indoor bath and an open-air bath, where the top two floors of the inn are divided into men's and women's baths. There is no sauna or cold bath. Simply a bath. Moreover, there is no curan or even a washing place in the open-air bath. For that reason, I was always flushing and throwing away hot water from the surface of the hot water. Evidence of abundant hot water. The indoor bath and the outside can be seen, but there is nothing to mention about the night view. It's almost full at night. The hot water is neither hot nor lukewarm. Is it the right temperature? The hot water is an alkaline simple spring, which is also non-irritating and light. That's why you can simply enjoy the hot springs. Meals are in the usual buffet style. At the end of November 2020, it was mandatory to wear vinyl gloves and masks when taking food after alcohol disinfection at the time of admission, and there were no restrictions when eating. In addition, there are no particular restrictions on the bathing of people with tattoos throughout Kawaji Onsen.

The hot water is soft and warm. The large communal bath has two large bathtubs, but Karan is in 15th place. I can't wash my body during busy hours. There is no sauna or cold bath. The open-air bath has a nice view, but there is no place to wash your body. If you stay during the busy season, you may end up with a room without a bath, with narrow walls outside the windows. This is the worst ... Meals are normal, but simmered dishes are ??? It seems that it depends on personal taste. The staff should be kind It feels a lot.

Without a view, the room is serious and there is no character for the view. Only the cliff can be seen by opening the window. The open air has a nice view, but it was hot during the day but lukewarm at night. The observation bath on the top floor is quite large, but that's it. I want a little more variation.
