This was our favorite part of a 2 week Japan trip. While the onsen’s were great, and amenities were fantastic, my favorite was the location and wilderness. Very remote, with lots and long “2 way road but 1car space” roads before you make it to the hotel which has parking for about 10 guest cars. 10/10!

Overall is very good. There is a free night trip provided by the hotel. Dont forget ride on the cable car to the onsen.

Christmas at Iya Onsen
Posted 30 Dec 2019 on HotelsHotel Iya Onsen was the magical getaway we were hoping it would be, and more. We were there for two days over Christmas and would have loved to stay longer. The onsen is peaceful and offer great views over the river and the meals were wonderful. We very stupidly managed to leave our passports behind and the hotel staff quickly arranged a courier to our next hotel in Osaka. They were so helpful and nice and we can't thank them enough.

Enjoyable experience
Posted 9 Dec 2018 on HotelsIt is located in the middle of the valley Iya. It has its own cable car for going down the valley for open air onsen. Really enjoyable experience and stay.

Great staff n location surrounded by mountains but just a little too far from station. The shuttle service is rather limited and if to grab a taxi it will cost you about 4000 yen. Nonetheless I love the setting of this ryokan and the novelty of taking the cable car to the outdoor bath. Wish that this outdoor bath water can be warmer tho..Enjoyed too the music CDs provided in the room they keep you relax. Overall experience is great.

Good view and location, spacious room
Posted 30 Jul 2018 on HotelsGood view and location. The room is spacious with private onsen and massage chair. They invite us to join free night trip to Iya bridge. It is beautiful. The public onsen is good but the outside onsen (by cable car) is not recommended.
