Kusatsu Onsen

Reviewed By chenoa

We have been to Kinosaki Onsen and enjoyed the onsen-hopping culture over there. In Kusatsu, onsen-hopping is not as flourishing. Kinosaki is the up-market cousin, attracting more foreign tourists than locals with its old charm - traditional buildings lining a beautiful canal that runs through the town, and many establishments offering boutique ryokan experiences complete with beautiful kimono or yukata for that instagram, and 7 public onsens free to visit as long as you are staying in 1 of the town's ryokans or hotels. Kusatsu, while its beauty pale in comparison with the yubatake in its town centre, appeals with more modest establishments and affordability. Unknown to many visitors, there are 3 public baths (free) to hop around. However, these baths do not have showering facilities. It is thus recommended that one stays in a ryokan or hotel that has a good onsen facility. This "poorer" cousin is actually richer. This area's springs' water is high in mineral content. Comparing the water quality, I would say that I enjoyed Kusatsu's water more. Both towns are accessible by JR transport. Kinosaki has its own train station (Kinosaki Station) while Kusatsu needs a JR bus connection from Naganohara-Kusatsuguchi Station. The JR bus timing coincides with the trains' arrival so connection is not a problem. The JR pass covers the JR bus from Nagonohara-Kusatsuguchi to Kusatsu Onsen. Winter and summer offers different scenery and atmosphere. Since summer is the low season, the town is relatively quiet. You can enjoy the onsen better without the crowd and at a discount off peak season prices.

Kusatsu Onsen Otaki no Yu

Reviewed By vrkung - Hong Kong, China

Located about 5 minutes walk from Yubatake, offering two indoor onsen and an outdoor onsen with 2 pools. One of the indoor onsen has 6 pools in different temperatures. Quite challenging and good fun. We were very glad with our choices.

Sai no Kawara Rotenburo

Reviewed By yakkun-h - Tokyo Prefecture, Japan

It is a very big outdoor bath along the river. The hot water is good and the scenery is also the best. There is no washing place, so it is attention because it is only hot water. 川沿いにあるとても大きな露天風呂です。 湯加減も良いし、景色も最高です。 洗い場はなく、お湯だけなので注意です。

Takaragawa Onsen

The world class onsen that is located at the northern mountain village of Gunma Prefecture, Japan.Takaragawa Onsen was once introduced by the router as one of the Top10 hot springs in the world in 2013.

Reviewed By kiattikhunm - Chiang Mai, Thailand

I really love Tarakagawa Onsen. Travelling is so easy. It takes only about 1 hour from Tokyo and then the onsen bus pick you up at the appointed station. It takes 45 minute further to the hotel where check-in is done smoothly and conveniently. The onsens are cool. There are 4 outdoor onsens of which 3 are for public and 1 is for women. The onsens open 24 hours. We even woke up at 3 o clock in the morning to use onsen in the middle of the night. Breakfast is awesome. We already have planed on going back to Tarakagawa in Feb where the onsens are fully covered by snow.
