Tsurumaki Onsen Motoyu Jinya(Accommodation available for ages 13 and above)

We checked into this lovely onsen resort for relaxation and respite after our long vacation. The facility is and grounds are beautiful. The staff are kind, English speaking and attentive. We intentionally booked a beautiful room with a private onsen with the hopes of relaxing before a long 13 hour flight home . Upon arrival in the room there was a group of toddlers shrieking and screaming for the first three hours. It appears they were having more of a pool party in the onsen just next to us sit. Repeated yelling, blood curdling screams and cannonballs into their onsen. For 900.00 a night we checked in and checked right out as the intent was to rest and relax and it was very clear we would not be able to do so. The children also kept banging on the wall next to our onsen. The staff said they could not reach the family and would not be able to ask them to quiet down.

流石の老舗旅館で総じて雰囲気良く、従業員の方々も丁寧な対応で好感度高い。 当日はあいにくの雨天で、雨で髪が濡れるのは嫌との妻の意向で45分3300円で予約していた貸切露天風呂はキャンセルせざるを得ず残念至極ではあったが、顧客の意向を丁寧に聴いてくれてキャンセルにもキチンと対応して貰い逆に感謝。という訳で共同大浴場を利用したがほぼ貸切状態で使えた。その男女別大浴場は少し熱めの内湯と少しるめの露天風呂と二つの浴槽があり、どちらもしっとり肌に沁みる感じが心地よい。因みにお食事コース予約で日帰り入浴は無料です。 ランチコースは1人7700円とそこそこの値段だがこれがミニマムのコース。しかしお値段相応で一品一品見た目も綺麗で味も良く量も十分で全体として至極堪能できた。食事後暫し備え付けの唐傘を差して庭園を散策し、建物内も露天風呂の場所など確認しつつ館内の調度品を鑑賞。将棋タイトル戦のお宿に因んだ歴代棋士の写真や色紙などファン垂涎の品で一杯。 今度は是非記念日に宿泊を予約しよう。
