Book a Room with a View
Several guests mentioned that the views from the rooms were spectacular. Opting for a room with a balcony facing the fountain comes highly recommended.
Consider Room Heating
Some guests reported that the room they stayed in during winter was too cold, and the heater was not capable of adequately heating the room. It may be advisable to inquire about room heating options, especially when visiting during colder months.
Language Barrier
While the Japanese staff may not speak English, helpful Nepali staff fluent in English were present, which helped mitigate some communication challenges for some guests.
Private Onsen Experience
Guests appreciated the availability of private onsen for those who prefer not to share with others. This can provide a more exclusive and intimate experience for guests.
Meal Package Consideration

Onsen Tattoo Policy
