日本国内で最高峰のうちの1つであろう、風情がありつつも唯一無二の性質をそなえた刺激的な温泉を楽しめます。 設備は必要十分・清潔で何ら不満はありません。 スタッフの方々も皆さま丁寧な対応で、関東圏内にありがちな事務的な感じとは異なるもので 快適に過ごせました。 車で10分ほど走ったところにある玉川温泉沿いの遊歩道も是非巡ることをお勧めします。 30分ほどで回れますが、圧倒的な体験ができます。

秘境の温泉は大混雑

秘境の温泉という事でこの温泉を訪れましたが、あまりの人の多さにびっくりしました。 コロナ禍で三密を避ける対策が不十分な気がします。特に入浴と食事は非常に混雑しており、細かくスケジュール管理が必要だと思いました。 また部屋の洗面所の排水が悪く水が流れにくく困りました。 全体的には、スタッフの対応は良く温泉も今まで経験したことがないタイプの湯で楽しむことが出来ました。

房間飛進好多蟲，有點可怕。飯店位置在山中，所以餐點多是以當地農產為主，喜歡精緻餐點的旅客可能會失望喔！要泡溫泉先請從稀釋過的湯開始，勿從100%泉源開始，要小心喔！

Wow, what an amazing onsen trip!

Shintamagawa onsen exceeded my expectations. Traveling alone, I was a bit worried by the location, but found Akita Airportliner was able to take me straight from the airport to the hotel without any problems for an economical price. The trip up to the mountains took 2 hours, but it was so beautiful to travel there for the first time. The Hotel itself looks well-kept and in good condition, and the hotel staff was extremely amiable and efficient. I was able to check-in quickly and without issue even though I spoke no Japanese. I had a two-night stay and I would say it was not enough time to fully enjoy the area and facilities. I visited the onsen twice a day and was impressed by the strength and quality of the water. I fully enjoyed the buffet breakfast and dinner. It was a typical Japanese style meal, nothing too fancy but matched the ambiance of the hotel and tastes of the guests. Much healthier than other buffet options I have experienced. The guests were mainly older who seemed to be there to keep up their health with the great onsen facilities. I found it also very healthy from a personal perspective. I did try to visit the neighboring Tazawa Lake and Kaunodate area, but just did not have enough time due to limited bus transportation this time of year. The one-way trip by bus takes over an hour and you must plan accordingly to match the schedule to get back to the onsen. Overall I extremely enjoyed my stay and will return in the future for a longer stay.

温泉好きには熱いけれど、観光先とするには…

館内は清潔感があり、湯治で名高い玉川温泉の浴場は泉質の強さにもかかわらず手入れが行き届いて、素晴らしい体験ができました。 ただ、レストランなどはチープさが感じられ、客層もあってどこか老人ホームのような居心地を覚えました。

素晴らしい滞在

一泊二日と短い滞在となりましたが、温泉を満喫しました。スタッフの皆さんはどなたもとても親切で、大雪が降った翌朝には雪山に埋もれた車を引っ張り出すのを手伝ってくれました。施設も清潔で綺麗に保たれており、殺風景なイメージの湯治場とは全く異なりました。お湯はもちろん素晴らしく、今までに感じたことのない癒されている感覚がありました。今度は最低でも二泊はしてプチ湯治を楽しみたいと思います。
