The location is very good. Within walking distance to different subway or JR train lines and busses. Very close to downtown. Hotel has natural hot spring and spa facility. After using the hot spring, hotel guests can relax in the VIP room on the top floor to enjoy the night view nearby. Tea, coffee and soft drinks are provided free of charge.

Ok, so this is a very nice hotel, perhaps nicer than I'm used to. The staff was attentive and helpful, and the room was quite nice. I'm knocking a star off due to despite being a paying guest, I was barred from the onsen for having a tattoo. I get that this is Japan and a lot of onsens dont allow it, but I guess I figured it would be different since you're paying to stay there. Just something for future travelers to consider if you were hoping to take advantage of the spa/onsen services for some unwind time.
