Kishigon Ryokan

地理位置很好，就是入住有點緊張，房間略有味道，還有酒店空調有水聲很響，其他都不錯。

房間設施和温泉設施都不錯，但作為老牌日式旅館，可能是旅館做大了的緣故，工作人員遠沒有小日本旅館的工作人員温馨友好，讓人遺憾。

服務人員很親切、環境清潔很棒、共用浴池很舒服乾淨、早餐超豐盛

雖然酒店老舊，但是服務環境和設施都能跟上

温泉一流。房間有古風。

Sleep: Had a Japanese style room with futons laid out. Futons were thin, they felt like worn thin foam mattresses that sagged in the middle. Pillows are flat and offers no support. Yukata smelt like mushrooms but smell went away after airing for a while. Onsen: there are 3 onsens. One without any windows and a small pool, one within the hotel block with both indoor and outdoor pools, and one outside the hotel, across the driveway with outdoor views. All are accessible to guests. There is also a private bath for rent. Food: Buffet breakfast was a good spread Overall: for the money I paid (22500 yen), i felt this was rather expensive. If i had stayed outside Idaho onsen itself, i might have been able to save more.

With its location along the famous stone stairs and its access to abundant "golden hot spring water", one can easily tell this is a long-established hotel in Ikaho. And this is the reason for my choosing to stay here since it is not easy to find onsen hotels that offer "natural flowing water" nowadays (onsen water will be "recycled" in many hotels). If one's purpose for coming to Ikaho is for their good water, Kishigo will be a good choice because they have three hot spring baths, and I particularly like the one detached from the main building, i.e. Open-Air Bath Gonzaemon no Yu. I got a Western style room with view of the stone stairs, nothing fancy, but I do not mind. As a solo traveller, I was not given the choice of dining at the hotel when making the booking. It worried me a bit at first since I always enjoy having traditional Japanese dinner in onsen hotels; and with this being my first visit to Ikaho, I did not even know if there is any restaurant in the area (shops in most onsen towns close at 5pm or earlier). It worked out all right in the end for there are restaurants, and I went to one that is just a minute's walk from the hotel. Dining out also meant I had more flexibility in spending time on a stroll around the area and relaxing in the hot springs.

伊香保の滞在は必ずこちらのお宿。いずれも「赤城側榛名側二つの眺め」の和室12帖へ宿泊させていただいております。やっぱり¨黄金の湯¨を源泉で引いているところが一番の魅力ですね。大浴場の¨又左衛門の湯¨、展望露天風呂の¨六左衛門の湯¨、離れ露天風呂の¨権左衛門の湯¨がメインどころ。ちなみに私は展望露天風呂が一番好きです。他には貸切露天風呂が何箇所かあります。なお、館内少々複雑な構造をしていますので、初めて展望露天風呂とか行く方は迷われるかもしれません。外国人スタッフも多いのですが、接客もよろしいですし、食事もきちんと配膳されますので、問題ないかと思います。旅館は高台にありますので眺めは良いですよ。

台風で天気が良く無い時に宿泊しました。客室は谷川岳が本来目の前に広がる 筈でしたがガスに覆われ残念。 温泉は掛け流しの金の湯。300Ｌ／毎分の湯量。赤茶の温泉で体あったまります。食事も美味しくゆっくり楽しめます。
