"We needed a place to stay for one night before going to Oze, so we chose Numata City and stayed at Route Inn. It was an excellent choice. The building was very new, the staff were extremely friendly, and the public bath was perfect for relaxing and relieving our fatigue after a long day. The breakfast was outstanding—one of the best parts of our stay. We were very impressed and would gladly stay here again."

"The host is very welcoming and clean"

"Nice outdoor onsen and meals!"

"I had to stay multiple nights at short notice, but they accommodated me quickly. Thank you very much."

"Clean facilities, delicious food, friendly service, heartfelt hospitality, I stayed here with my friends after trekking in OZE National Park, and all of my friends were able to make happy memories. I am sending my gratitude from Seoul, Korea, and I will visit again when I have the chance."

"The hostess greeted us with a smile. The building has a retro Showa feel, but the rooms have been renovated and the building is clean and comfortable. The hot spring water is free-flowing and circulated, and the open-air bath next to the large bath on the first floor is not available. We went to the indoor bath and open-air bath on the second floor, which are switched between men and women from 9:00 p.m. We were soothed by the mountains in front of us and the sound of the Katashina River flowing below. At night, we looked at the full moon over the mountains, and in the morning, we wanted to stay in the lukewarm water and the refreshing breeze. For dinner, we had the local dish of Gimin-nabe (a hot pot with sukiyaki noodles), miso-marinated pork teppanyaki, sashimi of salmon, konnyaku sashimi, yuba, salt-grilled sweetfish, and more. It was delicious, so we ate a lot of rice. Breakfast was the same as the ryokan menu, but perhaps the rice was cooked well, so it was delicious. It's better to have the good qualities of this old Japanese inn than a large, luxurious inn. We were able to relax and spend a relaxing time."

"Comfortable and very modern!"

"The place is far from the city so it’s actually pretty hard to access to this place. But the owner is really nice, she helped us with a lot of stuff, including with luggage transfer and taking us back to the train station. She also made us food because she’s worried we’re not eating enough and it’s cold. On top of that, if you are planning to go snowboarding or skiing there is a shuttle bus near by that takes you to the Kawaba ski resort for free!"
