Manza Juraku All-Inclusive Hotel

Comfortable enough, just starting to show its age. We were initially allocated the incorrect room but they rectified this very quickly and smoothly. Staff were incredibly helpful. All-inclusive definitely meant all-inclusive, and the onsen was top notch.

I could see this hotel directly from the Manza Prince Hotel. The Juraku is just beside the volcano vent. With steam actively blowing out, my thoughts “are you kidding me??” This hotel could slide down the volcano perhaps. It appeared very very volatile. Can we do this? Turns out this was the most popular hotel among the locals. Just after ski season was over; yet before Golden week; surprise! Full house. The food was excellent, onsen wonderful, room lovely. At dinner, we can see, we were the only foreigners there. Everyone was friendly. Food and drink was free flow. All guests were happy as can be. If not enough, the lovely lobby lounge had more free-flow drinks, beer and snacks. Sandwiches also at 7pm if interested. Perhaps a little confusing is the word “all-inclusive”. To clarify, no lunch included. All in all, of the five hotels we have experienced on this trip, this hotel at the edge of the volcano crater/vent was the best. Never mind the danger, never mind the sulfur smell; tomorrow will be another day!

夕飯ががっかりした。メインのローストビーフに筋ありすぎて、噛み切れず、喉に引っかかり、窒息するかと思った。美味しいのはしゃぶしゃぶしかなかった。刺し身もいくらもなく、メロンはハネジューメロン？質落としすぎかな。こんなにがっかりした夕食ブッフェは初めて。 逆に朝食はめちゃめちゃ美味しかった。特にピクルス、パスタ絶品でした。 昼はカレーも鍋焼きうどんも甘すぎた。 お風呂はなかなか良く、深夜もはいれるのは良かった。 オールインクルーシブで、飲み放題だが、時間制限をもう少し余裕がほしい。 部屋の古さはしょうがないけど、やっぱりエアコンが欲しかった。せめて換気扇も。空吹が見える絶景。空と雲の流れと星空は見てて飽きなかった。
