Reviewed By SandBTokyoSuimeikan was a really good hotel. We decided to stop in Gero which turned out to be a very nice traditional onsen town. Beautiful place. The hotel is just across the bridge from the main town. The hotel is big, beautiful and welcoming. It is a traditional Japanese onsen hotel and feels wonderful to the small details. The have a indoor and outdoor pool, game room, 3 different onsens, many different restaurants and a lobby lounge with a beautiful Japanese garden. Lots of parking space. There are three main buildings. We stayed in Sansui and had the new Japanese Western room. We had a corner room with a beautiful view of both the bridge and the garden. The room was cozy and comfortable. Because it was newly renovated it didn't smell like old smoke as I read in other reviews. The room was great for us. Dinner at the Japanese restaurant was super. Breakfast buffet was not very good, food just wasn't very good. We visited during Golden Week and the hotel was booked solid, however we never felt that the place was crowded. The hotel absorbs guests very well. Service is excellent, very friendly. Hotel was easy to use and enjoy. Hours for use were all really flexible. Some hotels are just too restrictive. Of the three onsens my favorite was the Big Cedar bath and it had a sauna, second was the Outdoor bath. The Panaroma bath seemed old. Definitely worth a visit to Gero and Suimeikan if you are in the area.

Lovely stay, amazing view
Reviewed By camvbWe had a great stay at this hotel. I would highly recommend the Traditional Japanese room especially to tourists like myself. The view from the window is amazing as well. As for the onsen, I especially loved open air hot spring.
4. Yunoshimakan
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 381 reviews
Yunoshimakan is a long-standing ryokan (Japanese-style inn) in Gero Onsen. The ryokan was established in 1931 and has had the honor of accommodating the previous Emperor Showa and the current Emperor Akihito. The more than 80-years-old wooden structure in a traditional sukiya-style took three years to be built by artisans of Hida, who are local artisans famous for their skillful techniques. The building is designated as a National Tangible Cultural Asset. Since the hotel stands in the great forest, each room commands a view of natural beauty. Guests here can experience the real Japan by staying at this historical main building surrounded by nature. Our ryokan is the best choice for those who want to touch and sample the ambience of real Japan.
Disappointing Commercialized Ryokan
Reviewed By harmann_harrietteThe location and the look of the exterior of Yunoshimakan got my attention but I should have read more reviews to prevent me from booking this wrong one. Having skied 5 days straight in Hakuba our family wanted some pampering with onsen and traditional Japanese cuisine. Our first ryokan stay was in Takayama, an intimate family-run ryokan called Katsuragi no Sato. We had an open bath overlooking snowy garden and the meals and service there were simply fantastic. It was one of the best experience we have had after having many ryokan stays throughout the years. Now at Yunoshimakan came huge disappointment. We have booked a room with an indoor private onsen, but the onsen seems very outdated and run down. Service was none as staff seem to have too much to handle. Food was below average for the price we paid. It seemed like most food was pre-made and waited to be serve in your room. If commercialized ryokan is your cup of tea you can give Yunoshimakan a go. There seems to be quite a number of facilities such as tennis table and club for drinking, but if you are looking for intimate, authentic Japanese ryokan onsen stay then don’t book this one!

Big Old Onsen Hotel
Reviewed By Pirasri PLocated at the heart of Gero, the hotel is a complex of buildings with complicated circulation system due to building extensions. Everything looked aged, but it still offered a very pleasant stay. The best part was - of course - the onsen, with its really fine waters. Dinner and breakfast were nicely presented in a huge but windowless room. We stayed in the Japanese-style room, which was almost like a house in itself, but unfortunately with lingering cigarette smell, maybe in the tatami floor, or perhaps the bedding.

A traditional ryokan
Reviewed By canontniaThis is a traditional ryokan. The reception was friendly and professional including tea served in your room upon arrival and an orientation as to the various utilities and yukatas. The room was similar to other ryokans we have visited: large with a low table and two chairs in the centre of the room which are replaced by two comfortable futons put into place while we were at dinner. The difference in this ryokan was a small dressing room with a vanity hidden by a natural beam in the corner of the room as well as four upright chairs in front of a long natural beam table in front of the large picture window. I can understand while some reviewers would see the room as being slightly dated with its dark trim but this is offset by bright halls with their floral carpeting and beautiful stained glass windows. As well, the traditional food was superb - artistically prepared and extremely tasty - with multiple dishes served by our gracious hostess. Given the recent investiture of the new Emperor we had a special menu prepared for Year #1 of Reiwa (the name of the Emperor's era). The onsen was equally excellent, with various pools. A great place to start and end the day. All in all an excellent experience.

Beautiful classic hotel in Gero
Reviewed By gemsthThe Kusakabe Armenia Hotel is on the hill opposite side of the town. The hotel provide many facilities in the hotel such as game center and the public bath with the view of Gero town which is recommended for anyone who stay at this hotel. But, I stay in the Smoking classic japanese room (Ryokan style) that I not recommend for anyone who do not smoke and travel with children to book this type of room because of the smoking smell that still in the room atmosphere.

Comfortable and homely stay with Fugaku!
Reviewed By doubleqiMy friend and I stayed at the ryokan for one night in April 14 to 15. Upon arrival at the JR Gero Station, we immediately met our driver where he drove us to the ryokan directly (only 3 minutes). We were greeted warmly by the staffs at Fugaku! There were no language barriers as almost all their staffs could speak English. We would like to give a shoutout to Ben who ran us through the functions and rules of the ryokan. He even brought us to our room and gave a detailed explanation to the amenities there! He was a really friendly guy and made us feel really welcomed with his small jokes and conversations. The room was pretty spacious and clean and they even provided Yukata. We had in-room dinner and breakfast there and it was a really great experience as it was our first time! The food was pretty good! Another shoutout would be to this kind lady called Hansol who served our food for both of the meals without fail! She was also friendly and was always smiling throughout. The onsen was pretty small but was still a good experience nonetheless. Overall, the hospitality at Fugaku was what really made us enjoy the stay.
