The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Relaxing Onsen Experience

The onsen facilities at Hotel Koyo are impressive! The ground floor features individual outdoor tubs and two large hot baths, perfect for relaxation. I particularly loved the sauna room, which was a great addition to the experience. The top floor onsen also has an outdoor bath with stunning views. Both onsens are free for hotel guests and impeccably clean. I felt rejuvenated after each visit!

Delicious Breakfast Buffet

Breakfast at Hotel Koyo was a good experience! The buffet offered a wide selection of both Japanese and Western options. From fresh sushi to delicious pastries, I was spoiled for choice. Every item I tried was flavorful and delicious, setting the perfect tone for my day. I only wished I had time to enjoy their dinner kaiseki, which looked equally extraordinary!

Comfortable Accommodations

The room I stayed in at Hotel Koyo was fantastic. Recently renovated, it had a lovely wood smell and was spacious enough for all my belongings. I appreciated the fridge provided, which could easily be stocked from the vending machines downstairs. The traditional tatami mat gave the place a cozy atmosphere, making my stay feel even more authentic.

Immaculate Onsen Facilities

I was thoroughly impressed by the cleanliness and maintenance of the onsen bathrooms at Hotel Koyo. The hot springs were pristine, and the attention to hygiene made me feel completely relaxed. I loved how everything was well-organized, and the facilities catered to both adults and families alike, ensuring everyone had a great time soaking and unwinding after a long day.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Koyo Onsen Hotel, which has a lovely traditional Japanese feel and offers great amenities like public onsens and comfortable rooms. Our room was modern and fresh, giving off a pleasant smell of wood. However, the dining setup was a bit limiting with a fixed menu for dinner, and you'll need to venture out for more varied dining options. Overall, it's a great choice if you're looking for a relaxing onsen experience, just be aware of the dining restrictions.

I had a lovely stay at the Koyo Onsen Hotel, which combines traditional Japanese charm with modern comforts. The rooms were new and smelled wonderfully of wood, making for a cozy atmosphere. We enjoyed the public onsen facilities and the amazing view of Mount Zao. However, I was disappointed that they don't cater to special food requests during dinner, which is served as a set menu. Breakfast options were decent, but there was a strict ending time. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would return.

The Koyo Onsen Hotel offers a unique blend of traditional Japanese hospitality and modern comforts. The environment is peaceful, especially with the option of a private onsen that boasts a beautiful view of Mount Zao. While the room we stayed in was stylish and newly renovated, the dining options were limited to a set menu without the ability to cater to special requests. Overall, a great experience but be mindful of the dining restrictions.

The Koyo is a lovely traditional Japanese onsen hotel that offers a unique experience with its recently renovated rooms and stunning views of Mount Zao. While I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and appreciated the cleanliness and comfort, the dining options were quite limited with just one set menu for dinner. Also, the breakfast timing is a bit early. However, the public onsens were a highlight!

My stay at Koyo was quite pleasant overall. The traditional Japanese Onsen experience was truly unique, with clean and recently renovated rooms. The views of mount Zao from the private onsen were spectacular. However, the dining could use some improvement, as they only offer one set menu for dinner without special food requests. Additionally, the breakfast ends early, which may be inconvenient for some guests.
