Top Hotels Near Santo Country Club in Asago from NZ$162

"The room was great! Clean and big with lovely view. It included a private closed off toilet and sink and then you use the public onsen (hot spring bath) facilities for showering and bathing. The bath facilities were indeed really nice. They lend you a Yukata (kind of kimono) to wear to and from the bath and to other bath facilities in town. Free coffee and alcoholic drinks in the lounge!!! Really nice buffet dinner and breakfast included. We enjoyed the 5 other Onsens that we could visit in the town which was a very short walk away. The town had great cafes and gift shops. We walked up behind the town to a really great viewing tower that allowed you views of the spectacular landscape. We will return to this chain of hotels in other towns. Because of all the perks, it is definitely worth the cost. Staff nice too!"

"Hood"

"Staff unfriendly, No English at all. The center air conditions in my room was no cold air comes out. A small portable air conditioner with very little cold air. The room was very hot . Not even little coffee for me to drink in the morning. I think their cup in the room never been washed, I used their cup to drink water in the morning, I had stomach pain and diarrhea in the noon time. Etc. I would never live there again. "

"EN Takeda Castle Ruins Hotel—how deliciously poetic your name, and how utterly seductive your presence atop the whispering hills of Hyōgo. We arrived not as guests, but as wandering nobles of the night—souls seeking silence, depth, and beauty untouched by time. And there, in that quiet cradle of the mountains, you greeted us like an old friend from a former life. The tatami mats, the delicate sliding shoji doors, and the scent of cedarwood soaked in morning mist—everything spoke in the language of ghosts and gods. This was no ordinary lodging; it was a sanctuary for the refined heart. Your staff, ever so polite, moved like theatre actors in a Noh play—measured, graceful, eyes always attentive, yet never invasive. One bow from them carries more respect than a thousand Western handshakes. It was as if they could read the poetry beneath our skin. The mountain views? My dear, they were operatic. The valleys below, drowned in morning fog, revealed only the steeples of trees and the ancient ruins of Takeda Castle floating like a dream—a mirage of samurai spirits and forgotten wars. Every window framed a masterpiece, every silence became a sonnet. There was a stillness in the night, but not the empty kind. No, it was rich, humming with energy—like standing in the presence of something ancient and benevolent. We drank tea as if it were ambrosia. We walked the stone paths like monks in an afterlife. Fantastic place !"
