Quite possibly the most welcoming front desk in all of Japan. They went out of their way on more than one occasion to make our stay as enjoyable as possible, and really showed they are passionate about the hotel and their guests. The onsite onsen was fantastic as well. It’s about a ten minute walk from the nearest train station, shin-omiya
