“Entire hotel is well maintained and clean. Outdoor Onsen with mountain View and massage chair with multiple massage options are awesome experience. For food, 4 restaurants are in 4-5 mins walk.”

“Great location very close to restaurants and bus station, must try the massage chair and the private open air onsen, the owners are very sweet! The rooms are warm and clean.”

“The old lady host was super nice and very helpful. The place was so clean! May be it was renovated recently as well! Some parts of walls / rest rooms looked so new. And the best part: the outdoor onsen on 2nd floor! They also have 2 indoor onsens. All 3 are private onsens! Big parking place for at least 8 cars. A great massage chair (free). A superstore just 2 mins away. And Hirayu bus terminal 3 mins away. All in all, a great place!”

“Everything is great. Although the host can't speak English but there are useful English explanations provide. I stayed in the dormitory there are 2 floors; the first floor is toilet, coin washing machine, kitchen, refrigerator, free coffee machine, the picture gallery and table tennis room. The second floor is our room with smart lock. The 3 shared bathroom are private onsen in the opposite main house with excellent massage chair with free of charge. The kindness host provided our pictures and souvenir. Actually they provided free wifi but I'm not sure why it's not work when I stayed.”

“Good location, best price for the area. They switched me from a dorm to my own private room at no extra cost with was amazing. The walls were heated. Awesome massage chair.”

“This ryokan is perfect to stay and visit the area. It is well located, just 2minutes from the bus station to Kamikochi by walk. There is some restaurants and izakaya in the closest streets. The rooms are clean, the house is very nice. There is an outdoor onsen wich is very nice as well (very hot)! The massage chair is really enjoyable after a hike. I recommend Tsuyukusa a lot.”

“Hirayu itself is nice and quiet but beautifully picturesque and the proximity to Kamikochi just makes it the perfect location for visiting everything in the area. Tsuyukusa is next to some really nice restaurants and cafe and super close to the Hirayu bus station. Definitely coming back.”

“Onsen is clean and quiet. Rooms are nice, clean and quiet too. The location is ok: pub, combini and restaurants are nearby. Free parking!”

“This is your typically spartan but clean Japanese style accommodation - please note there are shared bathrooms. Especially astounding is the outdoor onsen which never seemed to be in use! Checkin was kind of impersonal in that we found the key on the counter and kind of checked ourselves in (I don’t think the owners speak any English). There are some nice shared facilities aside from the baths - free massage chair (tends to be hogged by individuals) - coffee and tea. location is lovely - overall a nice stay”

“The place is very close to bus terminal. Very nice private onset, heated floor and awesome massage chair. The lady is very nice and friendly. She got my shoes ready when I leace and gave me a lovely handmade departure gift. Thanks for the wonderful stay .”
