Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Kinosaki

“A relaxing and all-round modern ryokan”

My family stayed in the OOedoonsen Kinosaki for two nights in late December 2018. The hotel was rather a big one relatively to small ryokans in the little Kinosaki town. The hotel had a large free car park. The reception staff clearly introduced the hotel to us in English. Our room seemed to be recently renovated and was very large (the lounge alone was about 20 tatami). Our futon beds had been already set when we arrived. There were still ample spaces for all our lugguage cases and sitting and even kids’ running. The room had a beautiful river view. It had a bathroom though we did not use it. The room was absolutely quiet all the time. As a shallow sleeper sensitive to noise, I could still sleep really well in the room in both nights. We used the hotel onsen for several times during our stay. There were two sections, that shifted regularly for male and female users. Both contained large indoor pools and smaller outdoor pools. My kids liked the onsen very much. Onsen users had to bring their own room towels. The hotel also provided each guest an “onsen pass” for the seven onsens of Kinosaki. I had tried two of them. I found that these legendary onsens could have their own characteristics yet they attracted too many users. To me it was more relaxing and convenient to use the hotel onsen. The dinner buffet began at 17:30, and guests could freely join till 20:30. There was no limit of eating time during this period. The buffet served a wide range of food except crab dishes. The food varieties and tastes were better than expected. When planning our Kinosaki trip, I had also considered the smaller traditional ryokans in the town. These centrally located inns might appeal to travelers who sought quaintness, hospitality, and crab set meals. But I finally chose OOedoonsen for its ample room space, large hotel onsen, reasonable rate, generous buffet meals, free car park, and variety of hotel amenities (games facilities and a comic book library). We really enjoyed the relaxing environment and the sense of freedom during our stay in OOedoonsen. We were all satisfied and definitely gave the highest rating. 我保證這則針對此酒店的評論是以本人的切身經歷為依據、為本人的真實評論、且本人與此酒店無個人或商業關係，也無收受此酒店的贈禮或金錢以撰寫這則評論。
