"Kusatsu Onsen KanemidoriReviews about "
- If you're looking for a quiet stay in Kusatsu Onsen, "Kanamidori" is a fantastic choice. It's a traditional Japanese ryokan located right in front of the "Yubatake," the main landmark of the town.
The biggest selling point here is the sheer "quality" of its onsen water. It is one of the very few ryokans in Kusatsu where you can experience two different types of spring water, both flowing 100% gensen kakenagashi.
This means the water flows directly from the source into the baths, completely fresh and untreated.
Even though it’s right in the center and convenient for sightseeing, the interior is pure 'Jun-Wafu' (traditional Japanese style) and remains remarkably quiet. The main bath area is also very tranquil. If you're the type of person who wants to be alone to quietly contemplate and truly appreciate the famous waters, this environment is ideal.

The Perfect Balance: Prime Location and Timeless Serenity
- For a solo trip to Kusatsu Onsen, I highly recommend "Kanamidori."
It offers an excellent balance of perfect accessibility and tranquility. It's located less than a 1-minute walk from the "Yubatake," the symbol of Kusatsu Onsen.
You might assume that being in the center of the onsen town means it's noisy, but "Kanamidori" is a historic, long-established ryokan (a 'shinise'). The moment you step inside, the hustle and bustle of the tourist area outside simply melts away, revealing a serene and traditional Japanese space.
The entire hotel maintains this peaceful atmosphere, making it ideal for those who want to spend their time quietly alone. It's incredibly convenient for sightseeing, and you can easily return to the ryokan to rest whenever you feel tired.

This hotel has lovely rooms with carefully selected furniture and materials.
- The guest rooms at Kin Midori are unified in a modern Japanese style, and each room is a wonderful inn with carefully selected furniture and materials. There are large public baths and open-air baths for men and women, and a private open-air bath in a independent guest cottages building. You can enjoy the "Yubata source" in the large public bath, and the "Bandaiko source" in the open-air bath. Both are free-flowing hot springs. The private open-air baths include a "Wooden bath" and a "Stone bath," and are relaxing open-air baths with a view of the garden. Meals are deliciously prepared by a skilled head chef using locally sourced ingredients. The hideaway-style private rooms are also in an excellent location.

The carefully maintained courtyard is impressive
- It's conveniently located just a three-minute walk from the Yubatake hot springs. This popular inn has a large public bath and an open-air bath where you can enjoy two hot springs. The well-maintained courtyard is in a purely Japanese style, making you feel relaxed. The large public bath and open-air bath are also designed in a garden style, so you can enjoy the hot springs of Kusatsu and the beauty of a Japanese garden at the same time.

Accommodation with a courtyard
- The inn has a well-maintained courtyard. There are various types of Japanese-style rooms with tatami mats where you can relax, and I think that every room is perfect for enjoying the Japanese atmosphere. The large communal bath and open-air bath are also full of Japanese atmosphere.

A hot spring inn where you can enjoy the view of the Yubatake
- It is located next to the Yubatake, so if you book a room on the upper floors you can enjoy the fantastic view of the illuminated Yubatake at night. For meals, you can enjoy carefully prepared dishes made with seasonal ingredients.
