I stayed at Kawakyu for two nights during the October long weekend. I had always wanted to stay there, and I finally got to experience it. The large public bath was very spacious and relaxing, and it helped relieve my travel fatigue. However, I did have some concerns. I used the King's Buffet, but the ventilation was poor, and the smell of oil from the grilling steaks reached my table. There were long lines at the popular sections, and by the time I got to eat, the food was completely cold. In addition, the concierge was only at the front desk, so I had to walk quite a distance across the large lobby to get to them. I was able to use the hotel's rental bicycles to sightsee in Shirahama. It was a good experience and I have fond memories.
