Mountain view Hotels in Nakanojo

Everything was great. It really felt like a traditional Japanese lodging. They have 3 private onsens that you can use if they're not occupied. During my stay, I never saw all three taken at once, and most of the time, they were all free. I had the best night's sleep of my trip, 8 hours without waking up. The food was good too.

We had an exceptional stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating, patiently waiting for us despite our late arrival and proactively reaching out via email to ensure everything was set. The hotel is spotlessly clean, the surroundings are breathtakingly beautiful with a natural charm, and the onsen was a delightful experience. The beds were also wonderfully comfortable, making our stay truly relaxing. Highly recommend this gem!

Great L-bone Steak Dinner!

The food at Jiayuan Hot Springs Ryokan is one of the best in Shiman Onsen. Both the dinner and breakfast were rich and delicious, leaving me full but unable to stop eating. I stayed in the ”Tong” room this time, and the shower and hot spring area are located outside the room on the left. While the view was beautiful, I felt cold even in early autumn. This room type is definitely not for hot springs in winter. For food lovers, this is a must-stay. Even the locals say the food at Jiayuan is excellent, and I agree, having stayed at another hotel in Shiman and compared it to Jiayuan's food. The hot spring water quality was just okay, though.
