2-Star Hotels in Gunma Prefecture, Japan

This was my first and only stay at a ryokan so I don’t have much to compare it to. I chose this lodging because of the cats and good reviews on the food. The cats were really sweet and I enjoyed playing with them. I have 2 cats of my own so it was really nice. The food was so beautiful and delicious - the mushroom soup at dinner was amazing. I really enjoyed it. The private bath rooms were very convenient and open 24 hrs. I thought the facilities were clean and very pleasant. The location was very close to the central area and a quick walk to all the important sites including the bus station. The only comment I have was in the morning someone was smoking and the smell got ****** into the 2nd floor hallway so maybe more care should be taken to be sure the smoke stays outside. The host was so nice and sweet and I used google translate to ask questions. The matcha madeleines are so tasty I bought a box to take with me.

I really liked the facilities and service, they were good for the price. The two private hot springs were just the right size for two people and we were able to relax in them. The complimentary breakfast was also luxurious and delicious. I would like to use it again if I come to Kusatsu!

駅近で周辺に食事出来る所たくさんありました。高崎駅近くのホテル探しましたがインバウンドの影響？か週末シングル10000円↑の所ばかりでこちらのSuzuya Hotelに決めました。他のレビューでウォシュレットがないというの見ましたがやはりあったらいいなと思いました。漫画がたくさんあり一人で滞在するには良かったです。

The staff is very earnest and helped with the luggage and all. They just recently renovated their room with brand new air con unit and new smart lighting with remote and while the exterior may not look dashing, it is very clean and comfortable inside the room. The shared bathroom is clean and often empty as well as they have a few of them.

This is the best stay I’ve ever stayed It’s a family run pension with two super friendly golden retrievers, the whole house is newly built, extremely clean, and decorated with good taste The dinner and breakfast are western- Japanese fusion, everything is homemade, definitely worth trying There is a nice and clean private onsen, or you can take a bus to have a day trip to other bigger onsen Minakami itself is a countryside area, and the pension is right next to the bus station There is literally nothing around the stay, so you need to get everything you need in Minakami station, but I think it’s a characteristic rather than disadvantage

The explanation of the accommodation and the hot spring was very gentle and thorough. When we arrived in our room, there were manju (sweet buns) waiting for us, and the room itself was very clean. The breakfast was also absolutely delicious! We are extremely satisfied and would love to come back again!

Wow! What a wonderful place, and wonderful people! I loved the view of the green rice fields out of my window, with a beautiful mountainous background. My room was great, clean and organized, had everything I needed. Location wise it takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the train station or to a nearby seven eleven. The train schedule is quite sparse, so time it correctly. (Or rent a car, would be the easiest) The hosts were extremely nice! Helped me in any way they could’ve for example in my checkout day, it was raining heavily so they gave me a ride to the station.

Really liked this place. I stayed in the Japanese style room which was so nicely put together. It had a view of the river and mountains (when the clouds and rain weren't there). What I absolutely loved was the outside Onsen with sauna and plunge pool which I had to myself both nights I stayed. It was such a magical experience being out there in the rain. It's about 20 mins walk from Minakami station but I believe there's a bus stop just puts de the hotel if you have too much luggage. There's very few restraints around and they all seem to close by 4pm so be warned 😊

The welcome drink included alcohol, and they served curry at night. I thought the breakfast wouldn't be that great, but it was more than adequate for the price, making it a great hotel! There's no women's bath, but there is a family bath, and you can reserve it by time, so that was fine. There's also a manga corner, so even if you're on a business trip, this is the kind of hotel you'll definitely want to return to. It was really good.

To begin with, the service counter that received us at the counter was very professional, well-mannered and accommodating! Then we were presently surprised that there was actually curry rice available for dinner FOC! The room was super clean and the view of Mount haruna was so beautifully presented right at our window. The hotel also have sauna that you can visit FOC from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m., 5:00 p.m. to midnight. Even breakfast are included! All these for the price of less than 40 Singapore dollars per night!
