- "Stayed in the glamping tent with my family of four (including a 5 & 9 yr old). Such a wonderful spot - tent was comfy w/ a dedicated toilet/sink room in a separate adjacent little building. Had a wonderful fire pit which the staff lit for us in the evening at the time we requested (on our was back from dinner we texted them from their very helpful app). All amenities in the main building were super clean, very new, and meticulously curated in a minimalist style. It had (x3) private Onsen baths which had both an indoor and outdoor bath each that were GORGEOUS, private for our family's use, and we never had to wait (but you could check their availability with the nifty app). The Japanese breakfast was delish, but didn't get an opportunity to try the dinner. The staff was SUPER friendly and helpful - did not speak English all that well but were super adept with their translating app to the point of holding friendly conversations well beyond the minimum required communication. The hotel was tucked in a side street that had an old temple ruin at the end which felt very special. Was such a lovely refuge after spending a week in bustling Tokyo, and an easy trip on the shinkansen to Ueda. We decided to stay an extra night to fully appreciate all this wonderful spot had to offer. Highly recommended!"
