The level of service was simply outstanding! From the moment we arrived (not quite dressed for any occasion, after a hefty day hike in pouring rain), to the moment we left, the staff was extremely helpful. When we found out late in the evening our planned train connection wasn't available after all, they helped us find an alternative and offered bento boxed breakfast, only to come knocking on our door 5min later when they thought of an even better option by driving us to a bus stop a few villages away early the morning. Special thanks to Tak from the front desk! Dinner and breakfast were also an exciting culinary journey :-)

The hostel offers great value for money, providing a comfortable stay with a convenient location right next to the bus station. The booking initially included both breakfast and dinner, but upon arrival, we were told that only breakfast was provided. However, after discussing with the reception, they got approval from their supervisor to honor the original package, which was appreciated. A Chinese-speaking receptionist was available, making communication much easier for those who speak Mandarin. Overall, the hostel is budget-friendly, comfortable, and easily accessible, with helpful staff ensuring a pleasant stay.

I was very happy when I got to the hotel the atmosphere just felt really friendly and warm. I loved the bridge over the river to the onsen. The onsen was lovely, three outside pools and an indoor pool plus a private onsen for families or couples. The food was fantastic, eat slowly I ate too quickly and felt full too soon. There was a very friendly front of house staff member called Suchittra or maybe Sasayuri. I had a western twin room on the ground floor. The hotel was comfortably busy without being hectic. They have a shuttle bus and that was very handy from Hongu. When I left they gave me very good instructions how and when to catch the public bus to my next location.

Very nice host and convenient location, which is just next to a bus stop. The room is big and clean. And it’s an interesting experience to stay in a tatami style room. In addition, there is wash machine and dryer in the hostel, so it is really helpful for the hiking travellers. The river view is very nice. Morning walk around the area is refreshing.

All properties with onsen in Hongu

Looking for a property with onsen?

Featuring traditional Japanese hot springs known as ‘onsen’, these hotels allow you to take a relaxing soak in therapeutic geothermal waters. Traditionally, onsens were located outdoors but a number of hotels also offer indoor facilities for private or shared use. The healing properties of each onsen will vary depending on its location, with ‘kuroyu’ black water known for its positive effects on skin.

    The onsen hot spring next to the river was awesome. The water was a bit on the hot side, but changing to the river to cool down created a nice rhythm.

    Very convenient. Had everything you needed. Washing and dryer. Loved the private onsens. Indoor and out door. Private bunks felt very private. Stairs and not a ladder for the top bunk. Get the bento box for dinner as there isn’t food options in the town. Very clean and organised.

    Well located next to the hiking trail. We arrived late after sunset and left early, so can’t say much. The rooms were very clean, the showers are private onsen which was nice. They provide some basic dinner and porridge for breakfast which was very kind.

    The room was large and offered western seating. The view from our room was lovely overlooking the river. Outdoor onsen was excellent! It was very clean and well maintained. Food was ok. There was plenty offered however was not all to our taste. Some of the gish was overcooked. Being given a western breakfast on the second morning was a pleasant surprise!

    the quality of the food was amazing - the variety of foods was top class - the three types of onsen were very enjoyable. I particularly liked the outdoor onsen - the staff who helped us catch buses were very helpful- the location right on the bus route and right on the river with the hot springs was wonderful.

    A welcoming and cosy place in a beautiful spot where you can dig your own hot spring in river banks, whilst also having two private onsen to boot.
