I'm so in love with the private outdoor onsen, u can book it by email or at the counter, the view from the room is excellent, though the room is quite old-fashioned, but the design is very user friendly. Besides, the price is really reasonable which we have 2 meals included. I have also do onsen at night outdoor and I see many stars on the sky, that's really unforgettable moment! Don't worry about the location, u can call the hotel to pick u up at visitor center.
