Kikuchikeikoku Onsen Iwakura

It was a very nice stay. I was so impressed that I could see fireflies from the terrace! I would definitely like to go again

私人半露天風呂一絕！ 環境優美，依溪而建，設施亦以天然木製品、花草為主，古色古香。 房間間隔實用，設私人半露天風呂，一泊二食非常好吃，若打算到菊池溪谷遊覽絕對是不二之選！

非常に明るくスタッフが接して頂き気持ち良かった。 もう一度行きたい気分になる。

As the name suggests, this inn is located on a rocky area along the river. Because of that, I got the impression that there were many steps. You will need to climb stairs to enter the public bath and restaurant. I got a room with an open-air bath, but there are less than 10 steps to the bath. The rocky area of ​​the open-air bath in the room is slippery and there is no handrail between the washing area and the bathtub. I was very careful, but I fell while taking a bath after breakfast and hit my wrist and hip. Fortunately, nothing serious happened, but I don't think the pain and bruises will go away for a while. If you are unsure about your feet, we recommend that you carefully consider your room selection and consult with your hotel in advance. Because the work clothes in the hall were made of synthetic fibers, they did not absorb moisture such as sweat, and it was necessary to adjust everything with strings instead of rubber, which was troublesome and inconvenient. It's good that you recommend using up the toilet paper in consideration of the environment, but the paper holder was very difficult to use, so I gave up on replacing it. It's a high class, but how is it that you can't use credit cards or travel coupons at all? All the staff who took care of me in the hotel were very pleasant and gave me a good impression, but the customer service at the front desk was unfriendly and had a bad response. This time, I made full use of travel support and coupon discounts, so I think the price is reasonable, but I feel that the regular price is expensive. My personal impression was the worst because various problems overlapped. It was the second time I stayed, but I will not be indebted again. Postscript: I posted a review with the same content on a major travel site, but it hasn't been posted yet. Why?

It was wonderful to have an open-air bath with a view of the valley in the room. Hot water is good. The food was delicious. I wanted to come again.
