Iiyama Vacations from NT$15,314

High end hotel that caters to Japanese guests. Great service. Nice property. But, no English language staff. No concierge. After telling me they don’t have a concierge, they told me via an electronic translator that no one could give me any guidance on train transportation. The facility does not have a gym which I find odd given that it is a very expensive, luxury property. For those that eat at the hotel — which is what we did given that nearby options are limited — there is what they called a “french” or “Italian” restaurant. In reality, both restaurants are fixed menu Japanese fine dining with either a French or Italian flare. I stayed in a suite with an Onsen which was very nice. So, in sum, it’s a very nice hotel with great service. For the price though, I expected more. Bottom line, if you are not a Japanese speaker, you might consider other options.

Great price for all the amenities! Staff was very friendly

Seperate baths allows guests to enjoy hot spring privately.

It was relatively cheap but the hotel is quite old and dated. The buffet dinner and breakfast is good value for money. Note there is no shuttle bus from bus station to the hotel. The 7 minutes walk is hard if you have heavy luggage.
