For the vast majority of travelers, Fukushima Airport (FKS) is the most efficient gateway to Inawashiro, though it serves the nearby city of Sukagawa. It offers the fastest and most cost-effective access, particularly via rental car or taxi. Sendai Airport (SDJ), located in the neighboring city of Sendai, serves as a larger international hub with excellent rail connectivity, though it requires a more involved transfer process. For those arriving from the west, Niigata Airport (KIJ) in Niigata city is an alternative, requiring a longer transit time via the scenic Ban-etsu West Line. Both Yamagata Airport (GAJ) and Shonai Airport (SYO), located in their respective nearby cities of Higashine and Sakata/Tsuruoka, are generally less practical unless your trip includes those regions. Travelers are advised to prioritize Fukushima Airport (FKS) for convenience, or Sendai Airport (SDJ) if international flight frequency is the priority. Always book intercity shuttle and rail tickets in advance during peak ski seasons.

I think it's good overall.
It was a two-person trip with my friends, and it was changed to ２ room, ２ night, and I was asked to respond smoothly.
It is a hotel with a number of years, but it is overall clean.

I felt that the building was old or the floor was a little weak. I was a little worried because there were small children.
The bath was always circulating in the hot spring, and the bathtub was wide and comfortable.
There were two toilets, so it was safe to have a lot of people.
As for the kitchen, I think there were all kinds of frying pans, pots, plates, etc. It was good that there was also a hot plate and yakiniku was made.
I thought it would have been nice if the glass to drink was a little larger. (I wanted a size that I could drink)
As a general comment, I think there is no big drawback and it is enough inn to spend normally.Outstanding2 Reviews

It was used by 10 people but it was very good!
Speaking of force, there were two rice cookers, but both of them were out of time and I made a reservation so that I could cook in the morning without noticing it, but I was impatient because I couldn't cook it, but after that, it was okay if I fixed it to the original time normally.
There is a long table, so everyone can play board games at night and it was quite substantial!
Thank you!
I want to use it again!FromUS$75

I really enjoyed the tranquility here and the excellent quality of the hot spring. The staff were all very enthusiastic; they helped make the beds and even called to remind us about breakfast and dinner. If you're looking to enjoy a hot spring experience surrounded by mountains and forests, this place is a great fit for you (but do note, the facilities here are a bit older).FromUS$70
