The room was very spacious, and the courtyard view during the autumn foliage season was breathtaking. Since this suite had its own private hot spring, we didn't bother using the hotel's public baths.
The hotel's location is quite good—about a dozen minutes' walk from JR Naruko-Onsen Station. However, it's an uphill walk which is exhausting when pulling luggage, so I definitely recommend calling the front desk in advance to arrange a pick-up shuttle. There is also a scheduled shuttle to the train station after check-out in the morning. Both pick-up and drop-off services are complimentary.
The dinner was lavish; the Wagyu shabu-shabu and sashimi platter were delicious. Yakult and popsicles were provided outside the public bath area, there was free late-night ramen in the lobby around 10 PM, and even the drinks in the room's minibar were free.
Extremely satisfied!!
