"Stayed twice in 2018 and 2026. Both times, the staff were warm and helpful. The bathing facilities are clean and well-stocked with amenities. The outdoor bath/ rotemburo is beautifully landscaped.
In 2026, the upgraded facilities were modern and elegant. Lounge featuring refreshing beverages was relaxing.
New beautiful yukata and slipper sets, including children’s sizes.
Happy hour and nightcap in lobby with free drinks, snacks, beer, wine, sake, spirits.
Breakfast: nicely features local specialties
Transportation: free shuttle bus to Nagahama eki/station.
Love the thoughtful amenities: family-friendly baby cribs, tray carts for seniors"
"Le stationnement souterrain inclus à été très utile pour nous. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine, du spa, du sauna et du bain froid en fin de journée."
"Hotel is located right next to Inuyama Station making it easy to get in and out of the city. The property is relatively new. Helpful staffs, good centralized air conditioning, comfortable bed, on-site spa, and great breakfast are very much loved."
"This is an incredible hotel with tons of amenities and extremely helpful staff. We have traveled to many countries and this hotel staff wins the gold medal for hospitality! They helped with every aspect of our travel and stay.
We are a party of 6 with 3 river view rooms and they were all comfortable; and the onsen was spotless and enjoyable. You can also get free bikes to ride around the river with brand new paths and meander the city streets. I will certainly come back to Juhachiro again one day because of the sweet and kind staff."
"Two blocks from the train station and the bus terminals, very easy to take a day-trip. The hotel is big and the room is spacious, much large than a typical Japanese hotel's. It is in the area with many restaurants. "
"Fantastic stay in this onsen style ryokan. Had a wonderful private onsen in our room, overlooking the river and the lake beyond. Can’t ask for a more perfect experience. Waking up early to soak in our private room onsen before dressing and heading down for the Japanese style breakfast included."
