Hotel New Katsura

We had a very pleasant stay for two days here. The staff were wonderfully friendly. The place itself is a bit dated, but has a certain Showa-Era charm. Personally I found the futons a bit thin. The breakfast buffet — mainly Japanese, but with a few western options — was very good. The only real drawback in the morning was the lack of coffee, which was not available in the rooms or at the buffet, only in the lobby lounge, and for an additional fee. We got dinners included, and no real complaints (particularly about volume, of which there was plenty), although my wife found much of the food a bit more cooled than she expected. The views from the rooms and open baths were beautiful. The large public baths in the original building were a bit aged, but the ones in the new annex were very nice, including an especially pleasant wooden outdoor bath. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much. We stayed with two small children, which was fine, but this was maybe not the best choice for really little kids.

落ち着いた雰囲気の旅館ですね。 泊まるなら夕食付きがベストですね。

温泉は肌がツルツルになりとても良かったです。静かでゆっくりと過ごせました。

素泊まりプランで利用したが、金額以上のサービス内容と部屋の快適性があり、とても良かった。 ただ近くにコンビニが無く。歩いて10分位の所にローソンがある位なので、素泊まりプランの際は注意した方が良い。

施設は古いですが、掃除が行き届いているのでさほど気になりませんでした。 スタッフの方々も親切で、食事も美味しかったです。
