Tamba Hotels from S$55

"This was my family’s first Japanese osen and I hope it will not be the last. The property was very clean and charming. The shuttle to and from the train station was convenient but didn’t start until 9 am and ended before 6 pm. However, the taxi fare was ok and we only needed to use it once during our two night stay to get back from sightseeing in Kyoto,’. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious and, I think, very traditional Japanese food. The hot springs were at the perfect temperature. Our futon beds were comfortable. Overall, our stay was immensely relaxing. If you are looking for a very traditional, serene Japanese experience,, at least from the perspective of an American, I believe you will find it here."

"Its lovely "

"Nice staffs"

"Great stay, staff were incredible, excellent bathing facilities, highly recommend."

"They also have large size slippers!"

"Very friendly staff. I caught them in the middle of renovations of a couple of floors but they were consensus of work hours. 10 minute walk from jr rail station. "

"The staff was very friendly, and the food presentation was good. However, we were disappointed that the mist sauna didn’t work, and there was no cold pool available; all the pools were very hot, making it difficult to cool off. The menu is entirely Japanese with no substitutions or accommodations for dietary restrictions, and while tea is available, there is no coffee. Also, because of the remote location, the lack of nearby restaurants or convenience stores made me feel somewhat trapped. The property itself is dated and showing its age, with the restaurant and bar closed permanently. Although the library offers a pretty setting, it was unlit, and the heat was off, rendering it unusable. "

"Simple and petfect for the area."

"Cozy, quaint and very relaxing. Loved the private onsen. Beds were SO comfortable!! Lots of free amenities, treats and drinks. "
