釜沼温泉大喜泉

Futon style. I paid extra for room facing the river. Waking up to river flowing sound is pretty therapeutic. The room has a toilet bowl room attached with hand washer. But for face and teeth brushing, you will need to go to common bathroom area. Onsen is said to have medicinal properties. There's nothing much around that area. Basically u r there juz to chill and relax. I like their free flow of spring water very much. There is a basic deck for stair viewing as well. Do note that there is a daily free car pick up 3.30pm from kiso fukushima station and departure of 10 am. I like they put in efforts in presenting their meals. Food is excellent, worth the extra 5500 yen paid 4 brekky & dinner. I stayed for 2 nites and they make it a point to change or vary my food menu which is greatly appreciated. Overall service is fantastic!

Superb hospitality from the owner and his team. Breakfast on both days were delicious. If you arrive by train, private transport to the property may be arranged. We shared a room for 4pax with a private toilet. Wash basins with a water dispenser was communal. It was a very special experience for us. Loved the natural setting of the onsen.

This Onsen is very well operated, beautifully appointed and in a natural setting that provides exceptional tranquility because of its natural beauty. The onsen itself, is the best of the five that we experienced during our two weeks in Japan. The meals were exceptional as were the staff. We could not have been happier and very much hope that we can return some day.
