Overall, my experience at the hotel was average. The rooms were spacious but lacked a great view, and while the staff was helpful, the dining options were not as appealing as I had hoped. The onsen provided some relaxation, but the crowds diminished the enjoyment. Considering the price, I believe there are better options in the area.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Choyo Resort Hotel. While the onsen experience was splendid and the staff were helpful, I found the dining options lackluster and the cleanliness of the room below expectations.

We had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which is close to attractions like the Sounkyo Ice Festival and Daisetsuzan National Park. The rooms were clean and comfortable, making for a relaxing experience. The buffet meals were decent but didn't quite meet expectations for value. Overall, it's a family-friendly resort with good amenities, but the dining experience could use improvement.

This hotel offers a beautiful and serene experience, nestled in the forest with stunning views of a stream. The onsen facilities are fantastic, providing relaxation in a peaceful natural setting. However, the rooms could benefit from some updates, and if you end up on the wrong side, the view will be disappointing. Overall, it’s a lovely traditional experience, but be sure to request a forest view room.

I had a comfortable stay at this hotel with access to a lovely hot spring onsen. The experience was pleasant overall, but the rooms faced a parking lot, and the dining options were just average for the price. The location offers beautiful autumn views nearby, but it's better suited for those with a car.

Rooms

6.0

The Japanese-style room was spacious, but the bathroom was quite tiny and a bit worn out for the price. The pillows were uncomfortable, and my room had a view of the parking lot instead of the beautiful stream.

Service

7.0

The staff were courteous, but communication was challenging due to limited English proficiency. They were helpful in arranging transportation.

Location

7.0

The hotel is located near some stunning spots for viewing autumn foliage, though it's quite far from the town center and requires a car for convenience.

Dining

5.0

The meals were decent but not enough to justify the price, and it felt more catered to tour groups than a high-quality dining experience.

Facilities

8.0

The onsen facilities were quite nice, offering a relaxing escape, but the indoor private onsen experience felt a bit disconnected from nature.
