Lovely onsen resort. It’s probably a little smaller than the other resorts in the area, but the villas are modern and lovely.

We spent two nights at Miyama Sanso after a whirlwind 10 days making our way west from Tokyo. It was the perfect retreat after many days on our feet. The facilities are spotless and the property itself is gorgeous. Beyond the tranquility and picturesque surroundings, the warm, kind, and attentive staff made our stay all the more pleasant and relaxing. They made sure to arrange for transport to and from the hotel and planned an excursion for guests to the main area of Kurokawa Onsen. They also went above and beyond to accommodate our challenging dietary restrictions and made sure we always had a delicious selection of dishes during meals, which elevated the experience. 10/10 would absolutely recommend. I look forward to returning!

Luxurious beautiful stay

Enjoyed our luxurious stay. Everyone was so friendly and kind. The property and area are beautiful. We booked a room with a private bath to add to the luxury. Also a bit shy being westerners so got to enjoy a lot of baths without feeling uncomfortable. Food was good and presentation was gorgeous. Almost too much for us but that seems to be standard with kaiseki meals!

AMAZING!

The whole experience in this onsen hotel is PERFECT! We were greeted by friendly staff when our car just entreated the hotel area, and we were served with hot matcha and tasted snacks. Staff has been very friendly and helpful with great hospitality. The onsen resort only got a few rooms, which provided privacy and calmness. You can use the onsen at the other sister hotel as well. Food was really nice. Private onsen was available inside your house as well. After all, we enjoyed ourselves and will definitely come back!

黒川温泉で最高と思います

黒川温泉探索の宿として利用しました。場所は黒川温泉の中心から車で5分ほど山に入ったところ。 とても静かな環境です。部屋は全てかけ流し温泉付きの庭もあるコテージ。寝室とリビングも十分な広さでとても清潔感あります。熊本のお殿様で有名な元首相も来られるとか。 食事も良いし、別棟の温泉も内湯はヒノキ、露天は岩風呂、温度も適度な熱さで快適でした。 その割には値段も手ごろで必ずリピートしたい宿となりました。
