"Kusatsu Hotel" Reviews & Details

• A Classic Hotel Steeped in 100 Years of History

  nice! 0
• As its name "Kusatsu Hotel" suggests, it's one of the classic, historic hotels that truly represents the town. Its most notable feature is the historic wooden building, constructed over 100 years ago (around 1913). This style is called "Taisho Roman," a traditional early 20th-century Japanese design, which gives the entire interior a very classic and serene atmosphere. Unlike the newer, modern hotels, there's absolutely no noisy or chaotic feeling here. For a solo male traveler (like myself), quietly reading a book or soaking in the onsen within this timeless building is the ultimate luxury. I think it's perfectly suited for those who appreciate a quiet, uncrowded atmosphere.

• A Peaceful Retreat in Nature, Just Outside the Town Center

  nice! 0
• If you're a solo traveler looking for a quiet place, "Kusatsu Hotel" is a great option. It’s about a 10-minute walk from the "Yubatake," which is the center of Kusatsu Onsen. Because it's set back a bit, it’s in an incredibly quiet and appealing location. It's also right next to "Sai no Kawara Park," a large park where hot spring water flows freely through it. Unlike the crowded town center, this area is full of nature and has a really relaxed vibe. It’s the perfect spot for anyone who wants to just chill out on their own—whether that means taking a morning walk in the park or just soaking quietly in the onsen.

• There is a large public bath where you can experience the difference in the hot spring water.

• It is a three-story wooden hot spring Ryokan (Japanese inn). The long, narrow hot spring is divided into two, so you can easily experience the difference between the Nishinokawahara hot spring and the Bandai hot spring. The meal is a kaiseki meal with 11 different dishes. The wild vegetable urui and apple with white sesame sauce, bluefin tuna sashimi, and grilled abalone were all delicious.

• This is a prestigious, long-established Ryokan (Japanese inn) that was founded over 100 years ago. The three-story purely Japanese-style building is very prestigious. Three new private baths were added two years ago, and are available for two and four people. The elaborate and delicious meals will make you feel rich. The interior and rooms are purely Japanese-style, very relaxing, and perfect for couples. We highly recommend this prestigious Ryokan (Japanese inn) in Kusatsu Onsen.

• Founded in 1913 in Kusatsu Onsen, this inn has a Japanese atmosphere. The main building is purely Japanese in style, with high ceilings and wooden sashes. Therefore, we think it will be well received by foreigners who want to experience Japanese architecture. You can also enjoy the hot springs in the natural surroundings of the indoor and outdoor baths, "Kohaku no Yu," and the indoor and outdoor baths, "Ruri no Yu." As for food, you can eat kaiseki（a traditional Japanese multiple course meal ）made with local seasonal ingredients such as Joshu beef and Gunma Prefecture's Mochi Pork at the restaurant "Okuniwa," which faces the mountain slope. The koshihikari rice from Agatsuma, Gunma Prefecture, is particularly delicious.

• Not only the hot springs, but also the atmosphere is great.

• Kusatsu's hot springs have ingredients that are good for the skin, so your skin will be smooth when you bathe in them. It's a sulfur spring, so it does have a bit of a smell, but the spring quality is very good. It seems that Tsurutaro Kataoka often visits the hotel. There are many of his works on display, and there is an art museum next door. I think it was free for those who stayed at Kusatsu Hotel. It may now be paid.
