Very festive and high-quality Onsen Inn

Reviewed By TKHershey

Iizaka Onsen (飯坂温泉) is an easy 25-minute train ride from Fukushima Station. It has numerous Onsen Inns, and Matsuriya Yuzaemon (祭屋 湯左衛門) is one of the good ones to choose from. With 34 rooms, I consider it medium-sized. Matsuri of Matsuriya means festival, so in the afternoon and evenings, we heard Japanese festival music. (In the morning, they switched to classic music, a nice subtle touch.) Matsuriya Yuzaemon has 1 indoor onsen, and 3 outdoor onsen for each of men and women. Hot water temperature was just right, and it was so relaxing. We soaked in 4-5 times during a single night stay. The hotel was full, but Onsen area was never crowded. Both dinner and breakfast were excellent. We ate at a private dining room on the first floor. On Saturdays, they provide a traditional taiko (Japanese drum) performance by local lads. It's a special style called Kenka (Street Fight), and it was the most energetic and excellent taiko performance I have ever watched. The room was clean and quiet, facing Surikamigawa River and hills behind the river. The room was stocked with the typical Japanese inn amenities. The staff are friendly and helpful in Japanese. Overall, Matsuriya Yuzaemon is a high-quality, fun place to stay in Iizaka Onsen. Matsuriya Yuzaemon is probably about 10 minute walk from Iizaka Onsen Station. They provide a shuttle bus service, but we opted to walk both ways, as there are interesting places in between. You should visit this traditional Onsen town, and if you stay in the area, I highly recommend Matsuriya Yuzaemon.

Hanataki

As traditional as it gets

Reviewed By Dan F

I had never stayed in a traditional Japanese hotel before, and this place was an experience for me. The room was ENORMOUS, which was surprising given the small hotel rooms I'm used to in Japan. Everything was top of the line here, from the bedding, to the service, to the meals. The onsen was an incredibly relaxing way to end my day, taking a soak just before bed. This place was difficult to find, but was worth the journey. The price was not cheap as far as Japanese hotels go, but considering that we got a 5 star dinner and breakfast included, it was a heck of a value.

絶景岩盤渓谷の温泉宿

Reviewed By taka55120

福島の奥座敷で岩盤渓谷で素晴らしい温泉を楽しみました。お風呂は、最上階の8階にあり露天風呂とサウナも併設されていて絶景の岩盤を眺めながらの入浴は、最高でした。夕食は、個室で頂きましたが、豆板焼きステーキ、寄せ鍋、お造り等、品数は、多かったが、質は、低位でロケーションとのギャップがあり残念でした。スタッフの皆さんの対応の好さと笑顔には癒されました。

A bet old but nice!

Reviewed By Rajesh T

Our room was river facing. We enjoyed viewing running river and listening the natural sound of river which was so relaxing. The tatami style room was wide and had good heating system, TV, sitting chairs with tea table. It was comfortable. Buffet dinner with variety of foods and selected drinks including alcoholic beverage was interesting. It was for 2.5 hrs. Buffet breakfast with tasty foods was also there. Parking was free. We also enjoyed onsen. The staffs were helpful. It was value for price.

猫ちゃんと泊まれる宿がなかなか無くて、いつも猫ちゃんと一緒におきな旅館さんを利用させて頂いています。 まず猫ちゃんが泊まれることに、感謝しています。 宿な猫ちゃん、セイちゃんも可愛ですよ。 他の猫ちゃんが泊まれる宿にも行ってみたのですが、お料理が違います。 ローストビーフを始めどの品も、とても美味しいです。 お酒が進みます(笑) 若旦那、スタッフの方達もとても感じがいいです。 温泉もそんなに広くはないですが、いい温泉で出てからもボカポカしてます。 東北で猫ちゃんが泊まれる宿では、1番と言っても過言ではありません。 いつも、ありがとうございます^_^

Lovely experience

Reviewed By ecoJulie

This was my first experience at a Ryokan. I would only recommend that you book here if you speak Japanese. I don't, but my brother does, and he had to translate everything for me. If you don't speak Japanese, it might be difficult. The room was large with a separate sitting area for enjoying the river. There were six futons available, so I admit to 'doubling up', since I am not used to sleeping on such a firm surface. Soft beds make soft bodies, so that makes me soft. The meals were huge. Seriously, I think they tried to kill us with food. I don't know how other guests were able to finish their meals. Even after starving myself the second day, and climbing Mt Bandai in preparation, I still was stuffed to the gills and could barely move, after dinner. The service was excellent, and the Onsen was lovely. They switch out the men's and women's baths each day, so you can experience both. They have both a natural hot spring bath (outside) as well as an indoor bath. If Google Translate is working correctly, one of the earlier reviews stated that they don't have soap? When I was there, they had all the amenities for cleaning yourself, such as body soap, shampoo, conditioner, foot scrub, etc. There were some things I didn't recognize, but one I found to be a foundation after trying it (not my skin tone). The fragrances are pretty strong in all the personal care products that I tried in Japan, so I bring my own.
