신타마가와 온센

日本国内で最高峰のうちの1つであろう、風情がありつつも唯一無二の性質をそなえた刺激的な温泉を楽しめます。 設備は必要十分・清潔で何ら不満はありません。 スタッフの方々も皆さま丁寧な対応で、関東圏内にありがちな事務的な感じとは異なるもので 快適に過ごせました。 車で10分ほど走ったところにある玉川温泉沿いの遊歩道も是非巡ることをお勧めします。 30分ほどで回れますが、圧倒的な体験ができます。

Very Relaxing and recommended for anyone looking to unwind.

Shintamagawa onsen exceeded my expectations. Traveling alone, I was a bit worried by the location, but found Akita Airportliner was able to take me straight from the airport to the hotel without any problems for an economical price. The trip up to the mountains took 2 hours, but it was so beautiful to travel there for the first time. The Hotel itself looks well-kept and in good condition, and the hotel staff was extremely amiable and efficient. I was able to check-in quickly and without issue even though I spoke no Japanese. I had a two-night stay and I would say it was not enough time to fully enjoy the area and facilities. I visited the onsen twice a day and was impressed by the strength and quality of the water. I fully enjoyed the buffet breakfast and dinner. It was a typical Japanese style meal, nothing too fancy but matched the ambiance of the hotel and tastes of the guests. Much healthier than other buffet options I have experienced. The guests were mainly older who seemed to be there to keep up their health with the great onsen facilities. I found it also very healthy from a personal perspective. I did try to visit the neighboring Tazawa Lake and Kaunodate area, but just did not have enough time due to limited bus transportation this time of year. The one-way trip by bus takes over an hour and you must plan accordingly to match the schedule to get back to the onsen. Overall I extremely enjoyed my stay and will return in the future for a longer stay.
