Yamanokami Onsen Map, Address, Transportation & Nearest Stations and Airport

1) Good points ① The sashimi is fresh and sweet. Tempura is crispy. I think it's the best compared to other facilities. ②The staff at the lounge and shop are very welcoming. ③You can see local ingredients such as pickles and shiso rolls. It is delicious. 4) Many of the souvenirs are local, which I like. 2) Bad points ① Unfair plan setting The dinner venue Omakase plan (basic Japanese set meal), which is cheaper than Kamado Dining, may be changed to Kamado Dining. From the inn's perspective, this is probably a measure to avoid waste, but from the customer's perspective, it is unsatisfactory that the meals are the same as those on a cheaper plan even though they are paying a high price to differentiate their meals. Apart from serving rooms, I think it would be fair to make a clear distinction between Kamado dining and Japanese set meals, or if everyone had a buffet or half-buffet for dinner and breakfast at the same venue like Shidodaira did, I think it would be fair. There is food in a stone oven, but I don't really understand why it needs to be a stone oven. I just felt a little hard to cook. ②Unfortunate paid soft drinks Soft drinks are charged at the dining room. This is the only comparable hotel in the prefecture that I have stayed at. I think it would be a good idea to charge a fee for high-value-added items such as alcohol and fresh juices, but I think it would be a good idea to at least make breakfast and free drinks in the lounge free of charge. If you register on line, you will receive a second soft drink, but it seems a little disappointing that you have to pay for the first drink. I think I'm doing my best with cooking, but I feel like it's really holding me back. ③ There are no hand towels in the toilet. ④The towel rack is at the foot of the bathroom. There is no sense of cleanliness. I wish there was a towel rack. ⑤ The indoor bath at ”Kawa no Yu” is disappointing.　The homepage lacks vibrancy. The windows are covered with green moss and dirt, and there are too many gaps. ⑥ Guests who monopolize the pottery bath and those who do not pour hot water It is not the hotel's responsibility, but guests who monopolize the single-use pottery bath for a long time, and customers who bathe without pouring hot water. Customers who take a bath without towels and go up without wiping themselves. Please post a bulletin board to educate people about proper bathing etiquette.　　 I think it's good that they are particular about the local area, but I want them to be fair from the customer's perspective. This may be unnecessary, but I'd rather make a platinum pork cutlet sandwich than make French toast.

I used it on a family trip. This is my second stay since I visited in March. I like it because my skin is chewy with hot spring water. Breakfast and dinner are also very satisfying! I stayed here for a family vacation, this is my second stay after visiting in March. I love the hot spring water because it makes my skin glutinous. Breakfast and dinner are also very satisfying!

I stayed in a room on the 3rd floor using the goto campaign. The room was a Japanese style room with 6 tatami mats and 2 beds, so I felt a little cramped. But I think it would be a relaxing space for the two of us. The open-air bath in the room was free-flowing, and the water temperature was hot, so the cold outside was pleasant. There is also a shower room next door. The amenities in the room were Omnisans. Drinks in the refrigerator in the room were free. There were two bottles each of canned beer, canned shochu high, 500 plastic bottled tea, and mineral water. The food in the private dining room was delicious. For the main, I chose steak and abalone one by one. Ginga no Shizuku's new rice was sticky and very delicious. The public bath is not very big, but there is also an open-air bath, and since the men's and women's baths are switched at night and in the morning, we were able to enter two types. You can also use the large public bath at the neighboring Hotel Shidodaira, which is a sister hotel. I didn't go, but my husband said that the sauna in the public bath there was good. Many of the staff were young and everyone was very nice. The wording is in the past tense and I felt a sense of incongruity at first, but it seems to be a dialect of Iwate. Hot springs, meals, very satisfying ryokan.

The high ceilings, the spacious living room and bedroom, the wonderful thick hot spring bath, and above all, the quietness, it was the best. The furniture, amenities, and number of towels were thoughtful and I had a comfortable stay. Wildflowers in the garden? I wonder if the flowers have calmed down. You can also use the large public baths at Yukaen and day-trip hot springs, and when you go there, you will feel like you are in the Showa era. It was fun to experience a little bit of the nostalgia of a hot spring inn. As soon as the rainy season ended, the ``fly'' came out, so I went back to the indoor bath at the sound of a loud ``boom'' from the open-air bath in the large public bath. It was unavoidable due to nature, but the hot water was so great that I wanted to soak in it slowly. When I went again at night, it was fine. First of all, the hot water in the room came from the same source, so I used it many times and was very satisfied (lol). I was very happy with the thoughtfulness of the Bessho, such as the dedicated front desk, lounge, and bottled mineral water available in the lounge as much as I needed. However, we ate at a restaurant, and although it was not the hotel's fault, there was a man who was talking loudly, and I asked him to be careful, although I was aware that it was difficult for him to do so. There was no need to worry about it, and I am sorry for making the staff more concerned. Since everyone is enjoying the quiet, I think there is a better way to do this than in a private room, but it would require more manpower, and we as customers need to improve our manners. The breakfast was also delicious. Thank you very much for the souvenir. It has good access from Sendai Airport, so it doesn't seem to be as far as I expected. I would like to visit again in another season.

I heard that the quality of the hot springs at Dai Onsen, which I hadn't visited yet, was good, but that was true. I stayed in a room with a bath that flows directly from the source, so I was very happy to be able to enter many times until the check-out time at 11:00. The skin has become smooth. I enjoyed my meal in a private room both morning and evening. I think the quality and quantity were good. This time I was able to relax without meeting other customers. Recommended for those who want to stay like this.

The hotel is located in the hot spring resort estate on the outskirts of Hanamaki City. There are a total of three hot spring hotels here, and Ka Shuen is the latest and most advanced.     The building is very beautiful and corresponds to the surrounding mountains. After breakfast, take a walk in the mountain park around the hotel, even at the end of July. Under the small waterfall, foreign children are playing in the water, and there are signs and bells of the police bears along the way. Really the original ecology.     Because we arrived late, we only chose the hotel's breakfast. The breakfast is quite satisfactory, almost the same as the price of a Japanese-style hotel. It is recommended that everyone book a breakfast and dinner together when ordering a room. If you do not make a reservation, it seems that you can only go to the restaurant next door, although it is also a family. But it is very troublesome.     The hotel is clean and tidy and the rooms are spacious. The hot spring is a hydrogen carbonate spring, the spring is clear, and the bathhouse equipment is readily available. Plus, so I went to soak in the morning and evening. I don't know if it was accumulated in Japan after a few days of hot springs, or it was particularly effective in this hot spring. I found that the acne and small particles on the back were gone, smooth and silky.     At the entrance to the hot spring manor, I saw a drug store, if you are interested, you can go and see.     I feel very comfortable here for a holiday and a relaxing weekend. It will take 3 hours to fly from Shanghai.     Finally, the hotel is a 20-minute drive from Hanamaki Airport, and the Hanamaki Airport is only 2 small souvenir shops. Therefore, it is recommended that people who go to the Hanamaki Airport should be one and a half hours in advance.     Ps. The staff of the hotel is very low in English and it is quite troublesome.

I have found my perfect onsen. It might be farther than I used to go for an Onsen , three hours instead of an hour's travel but after being made to wear a skirt to be able to use my old onsen, this place is worth it. Besides, the food is much much better. I might have missed something when I booked on the internet, but I was given a smoking room .I had to leave the window open for a while to clear out the smell. Apart from that, the room was big ,clean , has a bath and a toilet. When I step out to the corridor,  a Japanese lady introduced herself to me, her name is Mami ,saying she will be looking after my room , putting out my bed ( mattress on the floor the Japanese way ) serving me dinner. I stayed two nights, the first dinner was a bit of a struggle for her as she tried her best to explain what I was eating, it was a Kaiseiki dinner of about 10 courses. She explained every one of them, including each ingredient. The second night was a different story. She had every course written out and explained every thing proficiently.   Bless her heart. I am an old man of 75 and this young lady tried so hard to look after me. I am touched by her efforts . I dropped my chopstick once an I can hear quick shuffle of feet, and a new pair of chopsticks was in my hand. Osawa Onsen Sansuikagu was to my mind,extremely good, not ten out of ten, but a nine point eight out of ten. Some food, grilled fish , was a bit cold when it should have been hot. There is only salt , no pepper on the table for breakfast, but then again the cuisine is Japanese, not European, not some dried scrambled eggs. The main outdoor Osawa Onsen was the main feature of the hotel.  There were 4 or five other onsens in the hotel , some more beautiful and exquisite than others but the most famous one, Osawa Onsen,  stood out. It's  a mixed onsen which singles, families, couples , foreigners, young and old can enjoy.. in the nude.  I had a great time..very very impressed . Getting there is super easy ( I think.) I go to JR Ticket Office available at many train stations. I got shinkansen train tickets departing from Ueno Station ( to me Ueno station is not as big and less busy than Tokyo Station.)   Yamabiko 59 train , departing 11.42 am. to arrive at  Shin Hanamaki station at 14.41 pm. Once arrived , go to information office and they will tell you to walk outside to free bus stop number 2 . At 3.10 pm. the free bus will come to pick you up to Osawa Onsen. Ask before you get off the bus. It might stop at other onsens along the way. Get also the return ticket , Yamabiko 60. Free bus leaves Osawa at 10.50 a m. Train leaves Shin Hanamaki at 12.20 and arrive at Ueno at 15.18 pm. Enjoy your trip.

I was very worried that the Tohoku Shinkansen was suspended due to a breakdown the day before, and I was relieved to arrive at Shin Hanamaki as planned. [Welcome] ○ I arrived at Koyokan by shuttle bus while dancing from Shin Hanamaki Station, but the staff kindly responded at the reception. In the lobby, there was a juice corner that was not a welcome drink, which was able to moisten the thirsty throat. In addition to apples, grapes and grapefruit, the soup stock drinks were delicious. [I] △ The room was a cheap price plan of 11,650 yen, so it was a fairly small single room, but it was good that the desk and chairs were compact. Perhaps it was a room prepared for the tour guide. However, since the outside air is below freezing, it was chilly around the window side and at the feet, the warm air of the air conditioner did not reach, and it was a difficult point whether there was a temperature difference in the room. [Hot water] ○ I'm glad I was able to visit the adjacent inn, but I was lost in some places because there was a shortage of guide displays on the connecting passage. The quality of the hot water was just right because the pH was weakly alkaline with 7.8. Each 々 had an open-air bath, and I was able to enjoy the snowy scenery. Among the three hot spring tours, the rock open-air bath at Koyokan was the most relaxing. [Food] ◎ The food was buffet and the food was delicious. Especially, chicken wings and salmon marinated were good for beer with beef stew. I was very satisfied because draft beer was unusual and there was a large mug. There were many other types of desserts such as cakes and ice cream, and it was delicious. [Comment] ○ The size of the hotel was the largest of the many hotels I have stayed at so far. When I visited Parana, Brazil, I remembered that the locals were proud that this hotel was the best in the world, but it was as large as it was. At the time of check-out, after paying, I checked again and found that the accommodation fee (tax included) was 11,650 yen. Even if I added the drink fee, it was 13,000 yen, so I was surprised because I didn't think it was so cheap. Therefore, the evaluation was ◎ and I was very satisfied. On the day of my stay, I saw more than 100 Chinese tourists, with 4 sightseeing buses from Taiwan and 1 bus from Hong Kong. In the future, it will be even more crowded as more tourists from mainland China increase. So I propose that Chinese people love sea cucumbers, so they are very happy to serve delicious sea cucumber dishes. Especially in Japan, if you can actually experience the food culture of eating sea cucumbers raw without drying them, it will be even more exciting and demanding.

This is the second use. As in the previous time, I was able to heal my tired heart by the natural conversation with the staff 々. Also, the goats who received from a nearby elementary school in 2011 seem to be old, but I was relieved that they were cheerful and relieved by the kind care of the staff 々. I was healed in the hot springs, and I was warmed by the goats eating grass in good spirits, and I was able to spend a relaxing time. It was comfortable to feel like I was home. I will stop by again.
