The ryokan will provide guests with air-conditioned units with a desk, a kettle, a fridge, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with a bidet. The units are equipped with heating facilities. I was told that this hotel was recently reformed. Lucky us, it's totally new. The lobby is just like a mini museum. Breakfast is strongly recommended. If you like nature and tranquility, this hotel is surrounded by rice field and it's on top of a little hill that provides a very nice view. We came here by bus. At the bus stop, there is a convenience store to buy drinks and food, cause there are no restaurant in this country side, although you can reserve dinner in the hotel. Then from the bus stop, it's a 10 minute walk to the hotel. Everything was just beautiful and tranquid. We really enjoyed our stay. Walking through the rice field to visit the famous Chūson-ji was our favorite day trip.

Fulsato features a hot spring bath and free private parking, and is within 16 km of Shigarai Ski Area and 44 km of Kitakami Station. The property has mountain and river views. The ryokan features family rooms. This place was an amazing stop-over on our train journey from Kyoto to Sapporo. I think we were especially lucky being here on a Monday night as we were virtually the only people here! It meant that my son and I got the public onsen to ourselves which is superb (the outside area is right next to falling snow and a stream).

This 3-star ryokan features a spa experience, with its public bath and open-air bath. There is a restaurant serving Japanese cuisine, and free private parking is available. We loved everything at the hotel during our 5 night stay. We were promptly picked up and dropped off at both the ski resort and the local station on the hotel shuttle bus. The staff were lovely; polite and super helpful. Coffee machine in the foyer, ski room, onsens, and the beautiful Japanese dinner and breakfasts were to be experienced.
