Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is nestled atop the mountain with a stunning view, offering a serene escape into nature. The rooms are cozy and private, complete with a lovely low table and a rejuvenating hot spring bath. On the downside, it's a bit distant from the town center, but the secluded location adds to its charm.
The hotel sits atop the mountain with excellent views of the town of Gero. The rooms offer a stunning mountain view but suffer from dirty carpets. Having our own outdoor bath was a highlight, although some rooms lacked this feature. The service was exceptional, with attentive housekeeping and a complimentary shuttle service. The location is ideal for those seeking a peaceful retreat near the mountain. The dining experience offers a variety of food options, but the quality of the white rice was disappointing.
I absolutely loved my stay at this charming hotel! The rooms were cozy and inviting, the service was top-notch, and the location was simply breathtaking. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast options. The facilities were well-maintained and added to a memorable experience.
I stayed at this hotel and had a great experience! The room with the private outdoor bath was fantastic, offering a beautiful mountain view. The service was top-notch with efficient housekeeping and a welcoming shuttle service. The location up on a hill provided stunning views, despite being a bit isolated. The dining experience was satisfactory with different food options available. Overall, a lovely stay with excellent facilities.
