We signed up for the shabu-shabu dinner course, and it did not disappoint—it was one of the best meals I've had at a hotel in Japan, in terms of quality, variety and amount. (None of us ate much breakfast the next morning.) The hotel building is a bit aged, but very nice inside and well-maintained. The staff was helpful, and the young woman who served us at dinner was very professional (each group had their own server). 3 mins. walk from the hotel was a stairway down to the adjacent river, as good a nature get-away as you're likely to ask for. It took us about 30 mins. by car to get to the Toshogun area, but we preferred staying out of the main tourist area.

Isshinkan offers a great Japanese onsen experience. The hotel is a very short taxi ride or bus ride from Kinugawa-onsen station (making it quite easy to get around), and it has a very comfortable and family-run feel, even though it's a good size place. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We managed fine without being able to speak Japanese. The food (the set dinners and breakfasts, if you opt for them) are very delicious and copious, with many local and seasonal specialties. There were a lot of onsen bathing options, which we thoroughly used and enjoyed. They also offer good massage, karaoke (if you're inclined) and comfortable futon beds. It was very relaxing and excellent for our family of four -- very family friendly.

Nice onsen hotel
Nice onsen hotel located 15-20min walk to kinugawa station. Easy to take bus 5 from station (pay 190yen and not covered by nikko pass) and will reach hotel in 7min. Nice ornaments and decorations around the hotel. Breakfast is nice and enjoy the comfort of the function rooms. Onsen/bath is great in this hotel with good amenities. Would visit again for the onsen!

Kinugawa-Onsen Experience with Great Food
One of the typical Onsen (hot-spring) Hotel with my non-Japanese partner to have his first time Onsen experience. It was all in all wonderful and we both had a fun stay including the yummy dinner & breakfast. Totally recommend to hire your private bathing slot for 50min if you’re couple or family staying together. The local sakes were quite tasty and the dinner & breakfast using some of local ingredients. Better be hungry as the amount of food are more than enough! There’s a heated swimming pool as well as normal combination onsen spas with good water. I used the box spa and it was quite funny but also a very nice new experience. After having Onsen time, my skin and hair were perfectly soft and glowing. The hotel offers a short shuttle ride from Kinugawa-Onsen station and probably better use this service as it would be a good 20min walk to get there. The hotel staff members were all kind with good cares. Female guests could choose one of their colourful yukata (a kimono-style PJs) and they’re all very pretty. The only down side at this hotel was that everything was a bit dated. They were all clean but some decors you don’t really wanna see in a bright daylight, to be honest. We stayed from Sunday to Monday and it was very quiet. Partly because it was an alarming typhoon weekend, maybe. It was nice because not too many tourists were staying.

全体としては満足、でも残念な点も
久しぶりの温泉で楽しみにしていましたが、お風呂の説明が十分でなく露天に入り損ねました。そこが残念です。 この宿には露天の温泉があります！ 水着を着てはいるスパの他に、4か所温泉があり、日替わりで男女入れ替え制です。その説明がなく、気づいた時には翌日で、露天は男性用になってしまいました。 建物は年期が入っているいますが、落ち着いた雰囲気です。お食事はどれも良いお出汁の味がして、噂通り美味しかったです。量もやや多めですが、満足しました。 配膳をしてくれるタイ人の女性もきれいで、感じが良かったです。

Hotel is nice and comfortable but is very pricy
Negative and positive points: +: the personnel we had (young persons working hard there) were absolutely lovely with us. Service was perfect +: the surrounding location is great. Too bad it's becoming desert and the quality is fading away. +: I recommend to visit the nice 'World Tobu Square' not so far away by car. -: after experiencing many ryokan now, this one was the worst in terms of price/quality: very highly priced with a very poor quality of meals. It was around $100/ person for the food but the quality of the dinner was worth $12 and tasted so bad and was very common like a meal you'd have in a common restaurant. Meals were a complete joke. There were very few customers there while we went in June.
