Hyakumangoku Onsen Hotel(Bicester Village Branch)

The photos were taken casually, and the environment and atmosphere were both great. I wanted to find a hotel with hot springs to relax during the off-season, and I happened to see this one and checked in. First, the pros: The environment is good, the lobby has a strong Christmas atmosphere, and the staff at the front desk and restaurant are very friendly. The snacks the auntie delivered in the evening were delicious, and she also gave us a few bottles of water. The several cats are well-cared for by the hotel and are very clean. Now for the cons: 1. Since we drove, the hotel didn't inform us in advance that we needed to register our license plate. So, at the entrance gate, we had to stop and block the road, look for the front desk's phone number to call back, and ask if they could open the gate. 2. I was inspired by the 'hefu' (traditional Japanese clothes) / yukata I saw online. I found that renting a 'hefu' for a whole day cost over 700 yuan. So, I asked the front desk if the room came with a yukata-like garment (the kind of clothes usually provided after a hot spring bath). The hotel front desk replied that there were only bathrobes in the room, no yukatas. So, I left disappointed. When checking out, I opened the wardrobe near the entrance and found three yukatas on a tray under the two bathrobes. 3. Not the hotel's problem, but ordering takeout was inconvenient. The delivery driver told me I needed to take a taxi to get into the resort area, and the round trip fare of 20 kilometers cost 76 yuan. Overall, I was indeed quite dissatisfied this time. I hope things improve, especially since it's a hotel next to Disneyland.

The room was very spacious, and the hot springs were excellent with four different pools, perfect for a winter dip! The hotel also offers a shuttle service to and from Disneyland, and the location is very convenient. It was a great experience overall.

This is my second time staying here. I was looking for a hotel with an outdoor onsen and a quiet atmosphere, and this place delivers. Even though the private onsen rooms aren't huge, there are very few people, and soaking in the outdoor bath in winter is incredibly relaxing. The Japanese restaurant at the hotel is also really good. However, the breakfast selection is a bit limited. It's a great spot for families with kids.

The rooms were very clean, and the hot springs were fantastic. The service was also very thoughtful. It's super close to Bicester Village, right across the street, making shopping very convenient.
