Wafu-No-Yado Masuya

Die Umgebung war alles sauber, aber es war zu weit von der Innenstadt von Kusatsu entfernt. Die Fahrt mit dem Auto dauerte 2 Stunden. Ich denke, es wäre gut für Leute, die einfach nur eine heiße Quelle nehmen möchten.

有班車接送湯田中車站，第二日早上也有車送去雪猴公園。因為去完雪猴公園就要坐電鐵回長野，所以選擇讓旅館幫我們把行李先運送到車站寄存。這是有償服務，但價格跟我們拉着行李去雪猴公園寄存是一樣價格的，省去在雪地裏拉開來去的麻煩，有此需要的可以參考一下。再説回旅店，工作人員從車站接送起服務態度一直很好，即使英文溝通不是很暢通，但也一直耐心解答我們的問題。晚餐早餐都很豐盛，對入住過多次温泉酒店的我們還是有驚喜的。免費的温泉池不大，一個室內一個室外，沒有預訂貸切的就不予評價了。走幾分鐘就到涉温泉，那裡也有不錯的温泉旅館，但感覺整個温泉鄉有點蕭條，但人少也是不錯的。

The Ryokan is beautifully set, the staff were welcoming despite that fact english is not widely spoken. We chose the Japanese futon room with a river view, as we wanted to have a traditional Ryokan experience. This was a lovely room. We visited two out of the three onsens ( one was the private one, which is in the photos) in the property, which were beautiful but sadly not directly hot spring fed. We didn't have enough time to visit all the onsens in the village as lacked time but I am sure they are also beautiful. We did walk the village at night to see the different Ryokans and onsens. Breakfast and dinner were superb, they catered for vegetarians but you do need to let them know in advance and they do check with you daily about what you can/can't eat. The free shuttle bus to the monkey park and from the train station were a bonus. You do need to plan your trip back yourself. I would suggest that you plan your journey in advance as currently there are train cancellations and connections do not always match up.
