It was very comfortable, beds 10/10, they were very cosy and kept us warm and also include an electric blanket. Two of the 3 of us were from hot and sunny Qld Australia and our son brought us to Kusatsu Onsen at a time when it was very cold and snowing. It was exceptionally wonderful time to visit when it snowed.
The onsens in the hotel were great as well as the ones in the park and town.

First traditional onsen ryokan experience for me and my Aussie partner. We were absolutely stunned by how elegant and detailed of food was. It was lucky that Tokyo snowed few days ago so we get to see snow covering Kusatsu. We bathed in the onsen admiring how unreal the view was with snow. Brilliant service too but the front desk can barely speak English.

The hotel just cancel our booking without contact us personally, they simply email me which I had missed as it ended up in the junk box. We drove 2 hours from Nagano and when we arrived in the dark, they just leave a message at the door saying the the property is closed due water pump issue! It took us a long time to find another accommodation in Kusatsu as nearly all of them require advance booking!

We also love the public onsen where there is indoor and outdoor.
Love the unlimited snow crab dinner buffet.
Hotel also has a lot of nice, comfortable resting area.
Love the hotel able to provide transport to bus terminal and Yabatake town.
Built in 1913, the Kusatsu Hotel exhibits the architectural style of the Japanese Taisho Era.

Good location. On a quiet spot at the end of the main street of the town and right at the entrance of the country park. We took about 15 minutes to walk from the train station. But the ryokan also provided pick up and drop off service. Our room was spacious, comfortable and spotless clean. Excellent indoor and open air bath with spring water from 2 famous origins. Must try them all. The staff who served us were very good and helpful. We loved its relaxation room which provided freshly boil coffee and foot hot spring bath.

I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel.
I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel. It is nestled in the mountains, a gorgeous drive from Tokyo (If you have the time, drive!) Many places to drop in for a foot soak, lots of little shops and restaurants. Prepare to wait in the busy season (which I believe is the fall and winter). This time we stayed in a traditional Japanese hotel with tatami and only futons for sleeping- being from the US, this made the trip especially fun but make sure you are ok with getting up and down from the floor. There are less people who speak English than in the major cities. But if you are comfortable pointing and smiling and trying google translate, it is a beautiful place to visit. Note that people with limited mobility may find the town difficult to navigate (steps and steep hills). Better for adults, but there is a little tropical zoo nearby and the onsen demonstration is fun.

Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter.
Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter. We went in February and it was snowing. Family love it so much that we’re planning to visit for next winter. A lot of private hot spring and delicious food. We had kaiseki for breakfast and dinner at our ryokan. Definitely worth the trip and ain’t too far from Tokyo. Stay a night if possible.

If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-spring town in the mountains then, Kusatsu is the place for you. It takes a while to get there with the train and bus but if you have the time then I would recommend it. The culture surrounding hot-springs is unique to the Japanese and there is no better place to experience it.
Get early there for a day trip because most buses coming down to the train station stop running around 7 PM.

Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings.
Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings. Great Onsen. Its best to go for relaxation purpose and take a dip in the hotsprings. The places to look out for are 1) Yubatake (center of the town) - Please do visit in the evenings as well when the lights turn ON and make it a beautiful view.
2) Sainokawara Park and Open air Onsen. This is a must visit place to spend good walk in the park and then visit Open air Onsen
JR Bus station is very close to center - Yubatake. So it's just a 5mins walk and also there are round trip bus by JR to all sightseeing spots. Most of the resorts offer shuttle bus service also; so I recommend to check with your resort before booking. This really helped us.
The food is next best thing in Kusatsu. However if you are Vegetarian like us you might find difficulty to find good restaurants. However, there are a couple of Italian restaurants that offer good pasta and pizza which is loaded with vegetables.
One major thing to note is the Bus service from Kusatsu Bus station to Nagonahara Kusatsuguchi. The bus service is not regular; so please check it and plan your outbound trip.

The Yubatake area is picturesque and has many nearby shops with Japanese treats you can take out and eat/drink while sitting and enjoying the ambiance of Yubatake. Lots of traditional Japanese buildings, walkable streets with shops selling souvenirs and Japanese treats. Be sure to take the 10min walk from Yubatake thru Sainokawahara Koen (Park) to the large outdoor hot spring bath Sainokawhara Rotenburo.

The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs.
The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs. I have tried various ones, Kusatsu hot springs are relaxing and the the feeling is wonderful.
The food in the town is delicious, I tried Udon with Tempura in some places, it was just delicious.
Don’t forget to try the onsen tamago as a speciality of the town.
Great place to stay and enjoy an evening after having explored the town of a day at the local ski resort. The rooms are large and comfortable. We had plenty to do at the leisure area in the hotel lobby. There were even a gaming consoles to keep you busy throughout the night in hotel rooms. The owner runs a great coffee shop just down the road which hosts a very skilled barista who makes fantastic coffee just like what you would find in Australia. The hotel has three different onsens to choose from and all the necessary amenities.
This hotel charmed us with its ambiance from the moment we stepped inside. The proximity to the famous Yubatake and local onsens made it an ideal retreat. The hotel’s private onsen, while modest in size, has a lovely, intimate vibe. I got to enjoy it by myself which was a great experience. The level of service was amazing, with staff showcasing exceptional friendliness. The yukatas in our room were a thoughtful gesture that deeply enriched our cultural experience, making our trip feel even more special. I would stay here again!
Such a beautiful hidden gem at kusatsu onsen town! Super close to everything & even though there is a road out the front it is really quiet. The host/owner, Hiromi- we loved Hiromi! He is so friendly & accommodating, free beverages is a great touch, unit was very clean & beautiful japanese interior with 3 bedrooms, one with futons on the floor japanese style, and a large double bed in the open studio area. Will definitely stay here again & highly recommend this to anyone going to kusatsu
Amazing ryokan/hotel in Kusatsu. Staff were friendly and helpful. There was an initial mix-up with the room reservation, but the staff made sure to take care of it right away. The facilities were great and the room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was hearty and delicious, and again, the staff made us feel very comfortable. And on check-out, they gave us a free coffee coupon to their sister coffeeshop, which was an incredibly nice gesture.
Comfortable bed
Room is beautifully decorated
I booked for a shared bathroom at i still got a toilet in my room
4 beautiful private onsens
Welcome sweets and green tea
Unlimited cofee and even flavored water
Close to the bus station and a short walk to Yubatake and all the center of Kusatsu onsen
They have different shampoos and conditioner and we can use when we go onsen bathing
Bathroom has skin care.
One of the things that we really really appreciated about Kirishimaya Ryokan was staff that speak great English! Not that we expect that when we travel but it’s always wonderful to be able to converse naturally in our mother tongue! :) A very homey ryokan, dated but clean and well-run. The onsens were great…and really hot! Also close to Yubatake and pretty much the centre of Kusatsu.
My room was large and comfortable. I slept extremely well on the futon and had delicious breakfast and dinner at the hotel. The hotel is located near the Sainogawara park towards one end of the town so it is very convenient to visit the park and public onsen there. The hotel’s own onsen was great too with an indoor and outdoor pool
A Ryokan with a homely feel! The gentleman who checked us in spoke really good english and we had no issues with communication whatsoever. He made our stay especially pleasant! The onsen water at Kusatsu is also to the next level! You come with dry and rough skin and leave with silky smooth skin. Highly recommend this onsen town!
Fantastic location, very short walk from the Yubatake. Multiple onsen within the hotel, across a number of levels, including a small outdoor bath. Staff were friendly and accommodating, and the buffet breakfast and dinner included a large range of dishes.
Location is ideal. In front of bus station. Entrance on the side of the Lawson. The staff does not speak much English but very accommodating and nice.
Breakfast was really good and the small onsen in the hotel is nice and cozy.
A lovely spacious room in a very conveniently located hotel. Well worth making a booking for a private open air onsen bath - the space on the rooftop was so nice. Breakfast set was amazing and beautifully presented.
Value for money! Staffs are very much accommodating specially Jericho. Hotel is more than 100 years old but it doesn’t feel like one. So happy we booked this for our very first onsen/ryokan experience.
Best hotel we stayed at throughout our trip involving 6 hotels! Room size was generous, and the Gender-separate onsens, the location across the bus station and Breakfast was great.
