Beatiful onsen. The bath is one of the best I’ve experienced in Japan.

The baths were amazing and the staff could not be more accommodating- the beds were really comfortable too and the staff helped us to know how to eat all the (super posh!) food :-)

Chojukan has excellent quality water, at perfect temperature. The outside onsen mostly operates as women-only (men only before 7 am). The rooms in the old building are small but well maintained, and the sink is inside (toilet outside). Meals are simple, executed very nicely. In sum, the waters are the main attraction.

It is one of the most outstanding ryokans I have stayed in Japan when it comes to ambience and a sense of authenticity. The two bigger onsens in the ryokan were both quite distinguished and memorable, so I recommend trying it out. The water of the signature onsen comes naturally from the ground and you can feel the heat and bubbles coming from the stone floor directly, which is a unique experience. Food and service are also of high quality.

Everything else except the guests in the room above us. The food was good, the staff were lovely and oohh the hot springs were fantastic. The main bathhouse is in an old traditional structure and oddly enough it is a mixed bath! But if one was uncomfortable going into the mixed bath there are two other gender-segregated baths in the facility. This place is truly relaxing!

The location was one of the best places I have visited an onsen. This place is very big, old and historical. There is nothing near the hotel, it’s completely hidden and you can hear the birds and frogs and the river running from your window. It was fantastic! The staff was very very kind and everything was well taken care of. The rooms are very nice and look out on the river. The kaiseki dinner was amazing and I loved the onsen, especially the one outside with the small waterfall. This place was just a dream!

自然に囲まれてゆっくりできました。まだ桜が咲いていました。 散歩コースがあり、滝を見に行きました。 お風呂もぬるめで、堪能できました。 お風呂の底に、丸い石がごろごろしているのは、初めての体験でした。 部屋にこたつがあり、良かったです。 食事は量が多くて、お腹いっぱいになりました。

Perfect mix of authentic time period and modern comforts. They also have rooms that are older and more authentic with less modern comforts. The food and staff were all amazing. Specifically they went out of their way for my wife and I even though we didn't speak Japanese. They had someone go to the train station ( 40 minutes away ) to exchange our tickets for a later time. There were also numerous staff with excellent English... This is not common this far out and was very appreciated. Plenty of walking and the grounds are beautiful... Lastly. The Onsen... Amazing. My favorite was the outdoor one. Though they all were very clean and relaxing.

夕食の量、味付ちょうど良かった。 調度品など日本の古い感じが漂い落ち着き、安らぎを感じさせた。 部屋の間取り良く使い勝手が良かった。

お風呂がすばらしいのは変わらずでした。 ロビー横に囲炉裏があって、自由にお茶を淹れて飲むことができたり、部屋に炬燵があることが嬉しいです。 夜、別館から見えるお風呂の建物の様子が幻想的でした。 3月5日で、雪を心配していましたが、到着まで全く路面に雪はありませんでした。
