Excellent ryokan with super friendly staff, we really enjoyed our stay. The cats are cute and well taken care of, the baths are great and the room is pleasant. There is one caveat that needs to be mentioned: This is a cat-*themed* ryokan centered around the cats in the cat cafe that it hosts. The cafe is located inside the ryokan but acts as a separate entity and requires separate payment onsite. Very recommended for cat lovers! :3

Cat people reunite!
Where can I start? B&B and cat cafe and hot spring all in one? I was truly in heaven. Cats and owners are true winners. Away from main traffic, stores and restaurants. All I heard was local train goes by every hour or so. Cute sweets and well balanced breakfast. I really didn't want to leave.

超級推薦的好旅館
旅館主人十分友善親切,不厭其煩地對向每個入住的人講解,房間整潔整齊。溫泉有分室內和室外,每次只可以一組人使用,有私人風呂感。室內溫泉也很漂亮,有落地大玻璃可欣賞窗外景觀。喵喵們很可愛,好想有多點時間跟他們玩!

第二次入住笑貓,旅館夫婦友善的接待,耐心的講解住宿期間的留意的事項~由於是民宿改造,所以房間不多,但我就是喜歡這種悠閑寧靜,可以放鬆身心泡湯,更重要是可以在住宿期間和7隻可愛的貓咪互動,誠意推介~

美好的貓咪溫泉民宿體驗
這是一個傳統日式民宿,報到時有專人提行李、發送合適尺寸的浴衣以及拖鞋,連房客的鞋子都由服務生存放,溫泉民宿內建貓咖啡廳,但不會有貓打擾居住或睡眠。 房間是日式榻榻米地板,除了傳統拉門之外,還有一道帶鎖的木門保持隱私及安全,由於民宿有溫泉浴池,所以房內並沒有浴室,應該是傳統日式建築改建而成。 貓咖啡廳使用者付費(¥1000/人),時間及次數不限,時段為每日1700-2200以及隔日0800-1000,使用費包含一顆巧克力、一塊餅乾及一杯咖啡(也有一個裝少量貓食的小盒子,以供互動)。 首次進入貓咖啡廳時,會有服務生解說每一隻貓的名字、個性以及互動方式,環境整潔沒有異味,貓咪很溫順乖巧,感覺很療癒放鬆。 如有預訂用餐,晚餐時間為1900,地點在一樓的餐廳內,餐點是鎮上日式料理店的鐵板地雞套餐,分量及口味適中;早餐可以選擇時間(0700、0800、0900),地點一樣是一樓餐廳,是日式傳統早餐,餐點美味。 浴室分為兩間室內溫泉浴池以及一個戶外溫泉浴池,三個浴池有隔間牆所以互相不影響使用;室內浴池使用時間不限、次數不限,戶外浴池因為保障房客都能使用,僅限一個小時;兩種浴池使用前都要到櫃檯登記領取吹風機,並由服務生帶領前往使用。 登記退房時,服務生會拿房客的鞋子擺放在玄關,協助提行李到門口後,由服務生引導至門口長椅上合影留念。 整體而言十分推薦,如果有時間建議住宿兩晚,可以更完整地體驗當地生活,也能更悠閒地充分享受溫泉或是貓咪的療癒。

정말 좋아요 온천 이용도 기다린 적 없이 바로바로 이용 가능했고 물 온도도 적당해서 좋았습니다 직원분들이 정말 친절하셨고 고양이카페를 이용하지않아도 창문을 통해 볼 수 있었고 고양이들이 매우 귀여웠습니다! 다만 오래된 목조건축이기 때문에 방음이 잘 안되었고 방 안에 샤워실이 없는 것이 불편할 순 있습니다 그러나 다른 모든 것들에 만족하므로 추천드립니다!
