First of all, please not that this place (Ginzan Onsen, not this hotel) is VERY popular in Japan (as well as other countries, especially China), so you must book very early (6-7 months in summer, 1 year minimum during winter). So, this being said: - if this is your first time in a ryokan, you will be amazed. Nevertheless, the interior was quite old and dusty. The state of the facilities are not that good, even if one can see they are well cleaned ... they are simply old and need urgent refurbishment, especially given the high prices charged - on the other hand, the magic of the place compensates this. But it would be so simple to modernize it, especially the entrance area (it looks like a storage area !, great contrast with the other ryokans in the area, it's a pitty). - the food was great, exactly what you would expect in this price range for a ryokan - the baths are OK, if you want something special use the ones (exterior) in the "sister" hotel, they are great. (-) the big negative point for me was some of the staff and the way they seem to treat non Japanese guests; from the guy at check-in that started shouting "no reservation, full" because he didn't understood we have already a reservation ... (he never apologized). and the check-out where they showed us where to leave the luggage before leaving and that was everything. No goodbye when we came back to take the luggage, no help to the shuttle, nothing. Also, I think It's the very first ryokan I've visited where the staff insists we should take the luggage to our room ... without offering to help us or anything. Extremely disappointing and I think the level is so low because they have too many clients, people will keep coming even with substandard quality. It may not be strange if you don't know how a ryokan works but it' not good.... PS1: get a room on the front side (river), the back side is pretty sad. PS2: try to get outside of the "main street" of the "village" and do a stroll in the mountains around the Onsen, it's a great experience. Also, the best visit we did was after 21h00, when most tourists are in their best... it was great !

I liked the retro atmosphere of Ginzan Onsen. The free drinks were nice and the food was delicious. Night ➔ Haikara sauce was excellent. Morning ➔ I ate radish rice for the first time, but it was delicious like pickles. The view from the riverside rooms is the best, as you can see the lights of the gas lamps. Mr. Nakai was also friendly, and he was kind enough to show us around Ginzan Onsen from the time we got off the shuttle bus until we got to the hotel. Since the building is old, some people might be bothered by hearing footsteps, but fortunately there were no noisy people, so I was lucky. I was able to spend an adult time with plenty of time. It was the best trip that I wanted to go with my parents this time. Thanks to my friend who made the reservation.

It was very good. The townscape and ryokan have a unique atmosphere, and above all, the warm hospitality of the staff was great. The bath is not large, but I was satisfied that I entered the hot spring with solid hot water. It was worth coming from afar. However, it is undeniable that it is an old facility, so if a new one is good, I heard that the main building will be reopened next time, so that might be good too. I like this old style.

It wasn't worth the price. I went there expecting the same price setting and name recognition as the first-class ryokan in the vicinity, but I was surprised by the interior decoration like a family restaurant and the neglect of facility management using Taisho romance and oldness as an excuse.

I told you that I have a food allergy when I made the reservation (more than a month ago). At the time of check-in, I was suddenly forced to sign a very small document. Roughly speaking, it seems that it was written that "We will respond to allergies, but we cannot guarantee safety. Please understand that we are far from medical facilities." When I asked for a copy of the documents, they refused. Ordinarily, such documents should be sent at the time of booking to make them think carefully. I don't think it's something to sign at the last minute when you can't change to another inn. In addition, I knew that such a thing had no legal effect, so I signed it, but it made me uncomfortable all at once.

Ginzan Onsen, which I have always wanted to visit. I thought that it would be difficult to get a reservation for GW in a popular small hot spring town, but last fall, I suddenly thought about it and looked at the website of Kosekiya Annex, and there was a vacancy, so I made a reservation. Kosekiya Bekkan is a small inn with 15 rooms. We use old building, but the inside is renovated, and elevator is fully equipped, too. We stayed in two Japanese-style and Western-style rooms. From the Japanese-style room, you can see the cityscape facing the Ginzan River, and at night, you can enjoy the night view from the room. For that reason, if you are in a Japanese-style room, the sound of the river flowing will bother you, but the Western-style room at the back, which is used as a bedroom, is much quieter than the Japanese-style room, so I think it is easier to sleep. The room is very comfortable, the only drawback is the shared bathroom. However, there are only about 4 or 5 rooms on each floor, so I don't see many other guests, but it was a little troublesome to wear a mask every time I went to the bathroom. In addition to soft drinks, the restaurant on the 2nd floor has draft beer, sake, shochu, and wine. Of course, you can take it back to your room and drink it. This means that you don't have to pay for drinks at dinner, so considering that, I felt that the room rate was quite reasonable. And the taste of the food was completely beyond my expectations. Especially for dinner, the ingredients and cooking were done without cutting corners, and each dish was wonderful with the local flavor. Among them, Yamagata Kuroge Wagyu beef roast beef is exquisite and you will want to visit again to eat it. Also, there is no open-air bath, so it's not a very large bath, but I really liked the hot spring water temperature.

The long-awaited Ginzan Onsen. Atmospheric streets and hot springs. The delicious food and the warm hospitality of the hotel staff warmed my body and soul. The view of the snow from the window of the room was spectacular. All you can drink is the best! You can also compare three types of sake! The food is delicious, and the rice Tsuyahime is very delicious!

外のボイラーの音がうるさかった。またお布団が、シーツでくるんであるだけなので、寝返りをうったりしたら、めくれあがり寝づらかった。また不衛生です。  室内や、建物は、かなり老朽化しています。

 大正ロマンの雰囲気が素敵な温泉地、銀山温泉。東北を巡る旅を計画していた私たちは、ぜひ、銀山温泉の宿に宿泊したいと思って調べていました。旅行を予定していた半年余り前のこと。古勢起屋別館のHPを見ていると、私たちが銀山温泉を訪れる日に、まだ空きがありました。古勢起屋別館は、銀山温泉の温泉宿の中でも有名で人気の宿なので、すぐに予約を入れました。それも、部屋数が限られている川側の部屋をとれたんです。  そして半年後の秋。銀山温泉の入口に、古勢起屋専用の駐車場があって、そこからお迎えを電話を入れました。宿の送迎車でさえ、温泉街の端までしか入ることができないんです。  私たちは、3時のチェックイン時間に合わせて着いたので、お宿と温泉街を十分に楽しむことができました。私たちの客室は、川側の2間続きの和室でしたが、奥の部屋にはツインベッドが置かれていました。部屋の窓辺からは、暮れ行く温泉街も、ガス灯がともる夜景も、誰もいない早朝も、見ることができました。  食事もよかったですし、レトロな温泉も素敵でした。なにより、宿泊したからこその、誰もいない銀山温泉をたっぷりと感じられました。
