Okada Ryokan Warakutei

Both the public (free) and private onsen (paid) was great, especially after long drive and hiking in Kamikochi. We stayed for 2 nights, meal half board and were treated with sumptuous dinners and breakfast. This was particularly important as there are not much restaurants nor convenience store in Hirayu Onsen area. The room was comfortable and clean. The aircon was particularly weak but it didn't matter since it got pretty cold at night. Despite the hotel is a being a little dated, the old charm is what that made it special

The bathroom smell a little musty.

Old school ryokan with kind stuff

It’s bit worn out but it’s definitely authentic character

The staff were very welcoming and accomodating. We were late to check in for dinner so they left our dinner in the room, which was very nice. Onsen is great too and we enjoyed our stay

The only thing I can think of that the coffee was very bitter, otherwise we had a great time

Nothing much, it was dated and needed a good clean. The greatest disappointment were the onsen which were sub standard and not resembling the picture. I didn’t get the meals and I had brought some food as there were no food shop open in the village. It was empty and very quiet so at least I had a good sleep. Staff was lovely.

Pretty much everything, it was cheap and not worth it.
