Kusatsu Onsen Boun

They cancelled on us 2 weeks before our visit. most of the good hotels are booked in the region now. Not only no compensation but because of exchange rate differences we'll get less money than we paid to reserve it. We are left choosing between hotels without dinner, hotels without onsens, and a ryokan 3x the price.

My husband and I spent one amazing night here after hiking Mt Fuji the day before. We didn't know what to expect at our first Onsen but Kusatsu Onsen Buon exceeded our expectations. It is conveniently located by Yubatake Hot Springs and Sainokawara Park. It has a very zen and peaceful atmosphere. We booked a 90 min full body massage at the hotel and the masseuses were spectacular. They addressed every aching body concern after our hike! The breakfast was also plus. I would highly recommend them to my friends and book a stay with them again!

great stay with great service, we enjoyed the atmosphere very much.

幾分鐘路程便可去到湯畑, 環境清靜，設施乾淨齊全，房間地方大寬闊，員工細心周到。

This ryokan is close to the bus terminal and main square yet not too massively big. There were still crowd control with limit on maximum number of person in each onsen so it was a pleasant experience with about 3-4 persons in the onsen when we visit during our stay. Dinner and breakfast (excellent) were delicious. Only 1 check-in/out staff speaks minimal English and she used google translate to help during communication - we managed fine. Meals were in private dinning room and staff who spoke good English explained the various courses. A pleasant experience. We stayed in the traditional room without bath and it was clean and comfortable. Would recommend!

设施单一，地理位置很好，距离市中心很近。

Everything was good except that I thought there will be private onsen , miscommunication Location was fantastic just behind Yubatake which is only a few minutes walk

・夕食後に布団を敷きにくる方とタイミングが被ったこと ・風呂の温度が高いこと(草津温泉の特性上致し方ないところもあるが。) ・洗面台の排水がなぜか毎回手動なこと(排水バーを固定する方法が分からなかった。) 上記3点除けば立地等含めかなりの高コスパ。到着から部屋までの案内、部屋到着後のお茶、お茶菓子のサービス、さらには説明等が素晴らしい。料理も満足。総じて高評価。

草津温泉は初めてでしたが湯畑や西河原公園からの立地や口コミを見て2食付のプランで望雲に決めました。 バスターミナルから徒歩で10分くらい。 私達は早く着いたので西河原公園を少し寄り道してからチェックイン、夜に部屋飲みしたいなら湯畑を先に行ってコンビニで買い物を済ましておけば良かったです。 夜は雨が降っていたので食事も温泉も 全て館内で楽しめて尚良かったです。 夕食は18:30で決められてましたのでアクティブな方は時間調整は必要です。 個室に案内されて食べきれない程の品数と 追加のお料理、旅館のサービスなのかも？ すき焼きは冷めてしまうので固形燃料を追加してもらう方が良い！お米も最高に美味しかったです。朝食も品数多く見た目も綺麗でした。 コスパを考えると充分に納得のいける内容の老舗旅館でした。4〜5人グループで行くと尚楽しいかと思います。

部屋は古い感じでしたが、清潔で快適でした。 お風呂は源泉が二種類あり、それぞれ入浴出来て楽しめました。

接客も明るく気持ち良く過ごせました。 お湯もはさすが日本の三大名泉だけありぬるっとして肌がしっとりする感触で最高でした。脱衣所にはフェイスタオルが積まれており、気軽に何度でも入ることが出来、とても気の利いたサービスと思いました。食事も個室で落ち着き、味も美味しかったです。量は私達夫婦が割と少食な方ですが美味しいので完食したら食後1時間位は動けないほどでした^_^ 旅館から歩いて2、3分のところに草津温泉の観光名所湯畑があり夕食後にライトアップされた湯畑や土産店を散策して温泉旅行の醍醐味を味わうことが出来て最高の旅行でした。

雪が降っていたので、バスターミナルでお迎えがありよかった。夕食の申し込みがしていなかったため残念。

とても清潔に保たれていて気持ち良くすごせました。 又行きたいです。

旅館の人の対応、清潔感は素晴らしいてす。料理も素晴らしい。温泉も素晴らしい。ちょっと気になったのが、部屋が一階というのもあったのかも知れませんが、人が廊下を歩いてる？、時とか、隣の部屋の音がちょっと聞こえたり響いたりしたのが残念でした。 ２階建て？の木造？だからしょうがないのかもしれませんね。 ロケーションも湯畑から少し離れてるので、騒がしくなく静かで良かったてす。

2回目の利用 来年もまた来ます。

素晴らしい生花がたくさんあり、とても癒されました。 お料理も美味しくお腹いっぱいになりました。 階段が沢山あり、少し負担に感じました。 柄付きの浴衣が無料だと良いのにと思いました。 下の部屋の声がよく聞こえて、ちょっとビックリしました。

My wife, son, daughter and in-laws from Tokyo visited this onsen at the end of September. We have been to many impressive ryokan onsen, but this one was particularly impressive. We have had limited travel opportunities during the past 18 months, and we are very happy we chose Boun Onsen. It was beautifully nestled in the hillside surrounded by picturesque mountains and volcanic mineral streams. Nearby were a variety of omiyagi and street food choices near the main city center where the hot springs are featured . The staff were extremely professional and polite and were Japanese efficient. The rooms were spacious and the tatami mats and bedding wete warm and cozy and stocked with a wonderful green tea set. They have three separate onsen that alternate between men and ladies so everyone can experience the wonderful natural baths. The food was exquisitely presented and the flavors matched the artistic presentation of each meal. This experience was well worth the reasonably priced getaway and we highly recommend this Ryokan!

草津温泉といえば湯畑が中心になるかと思います。徒歩３分くらいなので、お昼はもちろん、夜のライトアップも気軽に行けます。温泉は２種類のお湯でどちらも最高でした。夕食朝食ともに頂きましたが全て美味しく、ゆったりとした時間を過ごすことができました。ホスピタリティに溢れる旅館で、総合的にみても次回も利用したいと思える旅館でした。草津温泉に行くさいは、ホテルよりゆっくり過ごすことができる旅館がおすすめです。

温泉♨️が最高です。

とても綺麗な旅館でした。従業員の方も皆明るく親切にして頂きありがとうございました。 お風呂も風情のある素敵なお風呂でとても気に入りました。チェックアウト後も車を停めさせて頂けてとてもありがたかったです。また草津に来る時は利用させて頂きたいです。ありがとうございました。

非常好的住宿體驗。

本館と新館があり、今回は本館利用でした。設備はどちらの建物も利用でき、新館の談話室は無料のコーヒーサービスもあり寛げる空間でした。浴場は3種類あり2種類の源泉掛け流しを楽しめるのですが、露天風呂がどれも空の抜けがあまりないです。宿の密集地なので、致し方ないでしょう。お料理は種類ボリュームとも平均的ですが、クオリティはもう少し高いものを望みます。また、少し乾き気味のお料理があったのは残念でした。最近は従業員が外国人の方が多いようですが、説明や受け答えが何か機械的で味気なかったです。

湯畑に近く、その割に閑静な立地です。食事も器も楽しめ

何度もリピしています。 全てに満足出来る宿です。 お風呂の床と、足袋を履いてのお部屋の畳で滑ってしまったので、気を付けたい。

素晴らしい温泉とおもてなし

Had a great stay at the Kusatsu Buon. The kaiseki dinners were some of the best I have tried and the breakfasts were pretty good as well. The hotel onsen were spacious and relaxing and I also tried the onsens around Kusatsu during my stay as well and I would say that the ones in the hotel are on par with the main onsens in town. The rooms are standard Japanese style, nothing remarkably different, but still quite comfortable. Overall, highly recommended and well worth spending a weekend or even longer there.

食事の質が落ちた　安いパックを利用した為？

父の誕生日祝いで宿泊しました。 旅館もとても綺麗でスタッフの方も親切丁寧で良かったです。父へのお心遣いも頂きとてもいい記念になりました。また是非利用したいです！

自駕遊，比較難找飯店 酒店間大，早及晚餐都好食 下次都會住此酒店

My husband and I visited this onsen ryokan for my birthday and we both enjoyed it massively. Located uphill while just a few minutes walk down to the town center and Yubatake. Staff are welcoming and attentive to details. The room is very cozy and spotless. The three onsens, which shifted between ladies and gentlemen at different time slots, are wonderful. The atmosphere and bathing facilities in the onsens are excellent. Dinner and breakfast are amazing which are served in a private room. We stayed there for two nights and all food are not repetitive. The meals are presented nicely which are just like pieces of arts and every item is undoubtedly tasty and fresh. The two nights stay here makes my birthday particularly memorable. We highly recommend you to this ryokan if you are planning to Kusatsu.

お料理が、シェフの一手間を感じられて、夕食も朝食も素晴らしかったです。部屋食の時のスタッフさんも終始笑顔で丁寧に控えめながらこちらを気遣ってサービスしてくれてよかったです。 露天風呂については、確かに外にあるのですが、景観はイマイチかなと。特に部屋についた露天風呂はプライバシーのこともあると思いますが全部木で囲われてて、露天ならではの開放感は感じられず残念でした。

草津温泉には何度か訪問してますが、大きめのホテル、家族的なペンションとどちらも一長一短でした。 今回のホテルは歴史ある宿でした。到着時から駐車場の案内、部屋の案内ととてもスムーズに感じました。 足の悪い母を気遣って階段の無いルートで部屋に案内され、食事も和室に椅子席でした。 設備は普通のホテルでも、従業員の方々のおもてなしに感謝します。

Excellent experience

Very nice facility. Staff is extremely helpful.

泡湯晚餐都很棒, 離草津湯鈿很近, 唯獨房間隔音差, 只要隔壁有人走動就很大聲

Very Bad experience Arrived Hotel at 8pm due to traffic, no dinner/nothing to serve us. Committed to pick us from JR station, and we need to spend 6000Yan for Taxi finally. Room is Old & Small No recommended to stay

朝食の際、寒そうにしていたらお声を掛けてくださったり、申し訳ないくらい色々とお気遣いいただき、とても素敵な旅行にして頂きました。ありがとうございました。

施設は従業員の教育が全てに行き届いていない

This ryokan has been expanded, with a traditional building linked to a new annex. Large, clean rooms and cool air makes for a great sleep. Simple but relaxing hot baths at a nice toasty temperature. Good, ample Japanese breakfast. Very helpful staff but English is limited.

房間空間感十足，工作人員會按時準備及收拾好被鋪，非常貼心! 一泊兩食的膳食安排也很不錯，晚餐相當豐富，也能因應要求將牛肉火鍋轉成豚肉火鍋!

The hot spring is excellent! The staff are nice & friendly! The breakfast provided is delicious and we were so full after taking the breakfast.

まわりの部屋の笑い声や音がうるさく安眠できなかったのが残念でした！宿屋やスタッフさん礼義正しく良かった。

Nice onsen hotel with delicious meals.

和で、ボディアロマをしました。癒しの効果を期待していたのに、ゴリゴリマッサージをされ、身体が目覚めてしまい、夜眠れませんでした。また、担当スタッフの説明が上から目線のイメージを受け、かなり不快な気分になりました。

Overall: Very positive hot spring onsen experience. Building has traditional facade, but interior is very large with contemporary design. Our first floor room next to water garden was very nice. Dinner and breakfast were good and served in private dining rooms. Three public bathing areas rotate daily between male and female; water is quite hot and facilities are fairly simple; one pool outside and one or two inside. The onsen is a few-minute walk from the center of the town which is a destination itself and attracts a lot of Japanese and a few foreign tourists. The center is dominated by a large sulfur hot spring that has a list of notable Japanese visitors dating back to the 8th century. There is a good choice of restaurants and coffee shops and the local 7-11 and Lawson's have the bright colors on their signs blacked out to make them fit in with the traditional atmosphere. Interesting!

Me and my wife spent couple of nights at Kusatsu Onsen Boun in July 2019. The hotel is about 10 mins walk from the Kusatus bus terminal. If you are carrying luggage with you, you should call the hotel and they will send the shuttle bus to pick you up. Not suggest to walk to the hotel with luggage because there are some up and down slopes/hills. The hotel looks like having a refurbishment recently because the new wing of the hotel looks new and grand. But we stayed at the main building which is comparative old. The room and public bathroom are basic, but the onsen is wonderful. You should soak yourselves two or three times a day in the onsent and feel the total relaxation. The staff are very friendly. Although they speak very limited English, they would still try to assist and answer your enquiries. The food at the dinner is extravagent. You would be seated in a private room or cubical to enjoy the meal made of seasonal food. I give 5 stars because the wonderful onsen and the friendly services.

Excellent service and the staffs are very supportive and offer help wherever they can. The room is tidy and clean, very organised and comfortable. Set breakfast and dinner are delicious. We will highly recommend it to friends.

Nobody come to get our luggage upon arrival at the car park. A bit unusual for Japanese ryokan. Can arrange vegetarian meal upon request. Food quality not excellent but reasonable for the rate we paid. Three public onsen are good. Japanese style room is spacious and clean.

要爬大約30公尺的斜坡 離湯畑大概5分鐘。湯不錯 價格不貴。有接送車站服務。餐也還可以。整體來說算蠻值得的。有機會還會想再來草津溫泉

온천탕의 원천수는 최고라고 하고 싶네요. 다만 아쉬운 부분은 신관 료칸대비 구 료칸은 시설 노후로 좀 아쉽습니다. 예약시 신관 료칸을 추천합니다.

温泉は、期待通り良かったです。

玄関や廊下に飾られた生け花がとても綺麗でした。お部屋も綺麗でしたし、湯畑からも遠くなく、観光しやすかったです。 色浴衣も500円でレンタルできて楽しく観光出来ました。 今回車でお邪魔したのですが、チェックアウトのあともお昼頃までなら大丈夫ですと、駐車場を利用させて頂けて助かりました。 しいて言えば、入館時、車を駐車場まで動かして下さったのですが、その後チェックアウトまで車の鍵を預かられてしたのがキーケースごと渡してしまったため不安で気になってしまいました。 鍵を預かる前に一言頂けたら鍵だけ渡せたなぁ。と感じました。

Wonderful onsen, delicious food, and nice service

We had great room with porch opening to garden with garden waterfall. Bath had 3 indoor and one outdoor... very nice! Food very nice. Best is hotel has shuttle pick up at bus station...walking doable, but hills are challenge esp.w/luggage.

We enjoyed the stay very much. Very good facilities and breakfast. The onsen was great.

車でのアプローチが分かりにくい。

Perfect service

位置很近，但不好找。 餐點中等以上。但没有預期的好吃，有黠失望。 無法在房內用餐，也很失望。

Nice and comfortable stay. All comments on different booking sites are genuine.

This is one of the best ryokan in this area. We search different sites and rating are quite consistent. We have 3 people, stays 2 night and half board. Initial we are not sure to choose half board or only breakfast. After reading different comments, we decided have a try of their dinner. We make the correct decision, not only their foods are good. There are not many eating places around the area. The room is spacious (approx 30m2) and is quite different from what stated on website (16 m2). The hotel located only few minutes walk from town centre and ~7 minute walk to bus terminal. However, walking slope up and down with your luggage is not easy. The hotel sent us to bus terminal on departure day and also second day when we went out. If you plan to stay there in the future, you many try contact hotel if they can provide pick up service. There are 3 onsen for hotel guests. The environment is clean and staff are nice. Simple English is ok.

酒店職員很有禮貌，很細心，環境舒適，食物好味

Wife and I have never visited Kusatsu before and we were looking for a nice onsen hotel in cold japan weather. This hotel was recommended to us by a friend and once I have booked the hotel, I never looked back on our experience that we were to find out during our stay. The hotel is located very near to the cillage centre of Kusatsu. Eateries also dotted around the vicinity of the hotel that offers high quality food, as one would expect nothing less when travelling in Japan. We stayed in a Japanese room in the main building. The room is very well maintained and we were taken to the room by a Japanese maid (must be in her late 60s) and patiently explained everything to us. Unfortunately, we can only guess what she was saying as she spoke to us in Japanese, which is a language that we are not familiar with. The staff at the front desk on the other hand were able to command English and they are all very helpful. We truly love the onsen and we made use of every chance to visit the onsen during our stay. The outdoor onsen is something that should not be missed at all costs. The Japanese is very strict about the check in and check out time. Their check in time is 2 pm and we arrived at 1:30 pm and had to wait until 2 pm before the room key toour room was handed to us. The breakfast, which was included in our room rate, was a feast. I will not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone who is travelling to this part of Japan. Best to travel to this destination when the weather is cold.

料理もおいしく　きれいなお部屋でした。お風呂が３か所　1日目が　男性2か所　　女性1か所　2日目が　その反対 女性は　2日目の　朝　出発前しか　２か所入れず　ばたばたしました。１日目の　夜に　1か所でも　入れ替えあれば。。。。また　チェックアウト　１１時だったら　もう少しゆっくりできました でも　ゆくっりできて　満足です。

快適に過ごすことが出来ました。 西の河原にも湯畑にも近く、源泉が2種類引かれているのも満足度が高いです。 また宿泊したいです。有難うございました。

笑顔と言葉遣いがいいですね❗

I am writing this review as I am staying. Once again dont believe everything trip advisor tells you. First of all dont even think about walking here from the bus station in the winter with luggage . Second of all I speak a lot of japanese and still had trouble here. If you speak no japanese you will have a problem communicating. Thirdly if you want an english style breakfast this isnt your place. We paid for the breakfast but didnt eat it. The problem with this ryokan is that it is too big to try to be a traditional ryokan. I have stayed at ryokans half this size that still had trappings of a traditional ryokan. The only thing I can say positive is that you are in walking distance of many restaurants and shops. The town of kusatsu is beautiful at night.

Traditional Onsen hotel with very nice decor. We arrived late since the GPS directed us to a longer way. Staff immediately arranged rooms and dinner for us. We booked 3 different rooms with different dinners in 3 separate bookings. As they did not realize we were a group, we had dinner in 3 rooms but one next to each other. We were arranged in one room for the breakfast the following day. Meal was good though not excellent. It impressed us most that a Cantonese (our mother tongue) speaking staff was arranged to serve our meal.It made us feel homed. Rooms were comfortable. We had a great deal with Expedia promotion. Staff also helped us to clean the snow of our car when we left. Location of the hotel is great too. It is within 3 mins walk to the town centre but on a small hill that you could be kept away from crowded area. Walking distance to most tourists attractions.

ホテル近くの湯畑・西の河原公園散策楽しい。スキー場も近くていい

一食二泊的部份都很舒適，如果戶外湯可以看到更多美景就更完美了

The hotspring is fair, dinner is quite disappointed

nice breakfast and dinner; nice room and staff; nice hot spring; having free pick up from the bus terminal to the hotel

非常棒的体验，从酒店装修，到服务，到餐饮和温泉，都非常棒

Excellent onsen hotel, will come again next time

用餐好豐富，但周邊無特別可以欣賞

โรงแรมดีมาก ออนเซนในห้องพักสะดวก สบาย Heater ในห้องพักทำงานได้ดีมาก หลับสบาย แนะนำเลยครับ

非常棒！

I read the reviews and decided that this would be the place. Our experience at this ryokan beat our expectations. I would recommend to friends. Notables: Stayed 2 nights (the right duration) Food - Delicious, large quantities (breakfast and dinner) Room - Comfortable (we actually doubled our futons for an even more comfortable sleep) Hot springs - 3 onsite, good quality Staff - Well trained, very attentive Location - Very convenient We took in the inn’s hot spring five times. On one of the days, we went to the town’s outdoor hot spring called Sainokawara. As it was an outdoor bath, we enjoyed an evening dip while seeing the stars and the moon. But quite honestly, I found the inn’s baths more relaxing since a big public bath is a bit too busy. Apart from the hot springs, we went hiking on both days. There are some walking paths not too far from the top off Sainokawara Park called 森の癒し歩道 (Mori no iyashi hodō), which is apparently also a cycling course although we didn’t see anyone cycling. Lastly, we took a bus directly from Tokyo Station to Kusatsu Onsen (10:10am departure with a 1:46pm arrival). It was very comfortable with one rest stop. This was better than taking 2 trains plus a bus and cheaper as well. There is also a direct bus from Shinjuku Station.

Dining room staffs need a bit more training as some are not Japanese professional enough as relate to the setting. Everything else is very good and I would recommend this ryokan

Our stay was amazing!!! Only one thing I would like to give them a feedback. On the check out date, I got my car key back from one of their staff (they asked to keep it at the front). But we need to go out and buy something before leaving. When we got back, my car was parked in front of the hotel entrance and one of their staff (not the one who gave me back my car key) told me that I shouldn't park my car there. (I didn't notice when we went out because it's a rent car and I couldn't recognize it at a glance) I tried to explain that I wasn't the one who parked the car there but he didn't seem like who want to listen to my reason. And somehow I felt that he acted rudely to me. Anyway, all of their staffs beside him are great and I still enjoy my time their.

Excellent attention to details. Everything was perfect. Do learn a bit of basic Japanese, it will be very helpful. wonderful, we can’t wait to be back. ps. we had a room with private onsen bath & two meals. a wonderful two nights. we didn’t want to leave.

special pick to stay in Kusatsu for Onsen near Tokyo area. our right choice to stay with Hotel Boun, a classy and comfortable hotel. Thank you for all your friendly and warm hospitality. we stayed in 2nd floor, japanese style big room for 4 adults with a quiet mountain view, room is clean, tidy and thoughful design. love the coffee corner idea which relaxing and designed with a touch of modern. beautiful gardening built all around in the hotel. Osen pool is not too big but not crowded, that's good enough for the purpose. I denfintly will stay again n next visit.

Should provide a bigger TV and include some English news channel or programs.

Large room with view, dinner in room which is good. Service is very good. Enjoy my stay there.

Food is great. Public onsen is ok but can be better. Service is very good.

From the moment we were picked up at the bus station we were treated like royalty. We were treated to tea service in our room on arrival. The room was large and comfortable with a beautiful private traditional garden. We were given traditional clothing and sandals to wear to the bath. The bath was clean and well appointed with high end products to use afterwards. While at dinner in the old traditional part of town (a short, pleasant walk away), our room was transformed for sleeping. The traditional breakfast, served elegantly in our own private room, was icing on the cake. This was a not to be missed experience!

This hotel makes me feel likeI want to stay forever. The flower displays are amazing, quality of the spa water, the food at dinner and breakfast - all perfection (and I don't drop that word easily). The owner takes every detail to heart. I love the range of products in the spa. My stay was made extra special by my "valet", Eppei, who cared for me with joy and laughter. Also very good wifi, unusual in Japanese hotels

This was our first family trip to Kusatsu Onsen by bus. My kids got a chance to wear yukata of their choice. We went out to downtown with those yukata and walk to Yubatake. The public natural Onsen was authentic. Keiseki dinner set is superb!

Hotel is located in the heart of kusatsu. There is many restaurants n minimarts near the hotel. Room was clean n spacious. Onsen was excellent.

Excellent onsen bath. Room is spacious and clean. Hotel location is perfect. 2mins by walk to yubatake. It was very convenient.Dinner and breakfast are yummy. Staffs are friendly and helpful.. Love this place;)

Great place to stay if you want to experience a traditional but updated Japanese style hot spring inn. You can even book a room with your own personal hot spring if you like but the larger communal hot springs are great, and change each day so you can try them all during a one night stay. The staff were mostly very very efficient except for the meal scheduling where there was repeated confusion but everyone was quite friendly and eager to help. The food was not as good as I had expected at the price point unfortunately but the cleanliness, style and spaciousness of rooms and facilities are excellent and well worth the visit. We spoke Japanese so I don't know about English capabilities. Yukata/overcoat had size options and were nice and warm and tied easily and well.

👍

Love the arrangement of dinner and brakfast, the dishes is alot more than what we have expected. And the staff is friendly and warm. Onsen is relaxing and clean.

Busy hotel, but staff was friendly. They gave us the wrong key at check in but immediately fixed the issue.

The first room they provide is small and no view, also close to the kitchen. It is too poor. After complaint to the person in charge, they change a bigger and good view room to us. The room is good. Overall the service is good, nice hotel. The dinner is not bad, a lot of different dishes, nice in presentation, but honest said that the food is too traditional Japanese type, and not very good taste. My own comment, no choice on the food, you have to eat what they provided, good or bad.

This was our first trip to an Onsen with my family. We had two rooms, one Deluxe and one Standard. Although both are very clean and tidy, but the Deluxe was worth the extra. The Deluxe room had our own private Onsen tub, so you can enjoy a dip in your own privacy. The food was very good and they made extra effort to accommodate one vegetarian in my family. Staff was very friend and considerate. They picked us up and dropped us off at the Express Bus Terminal. The staff also spoken reasonable English to communicate with us. This Onsen is sort of like a small hotel that is more like a family run business. So it was definitely more traditional and friendly. Although there are large hotels, I would recommend this especially if it is your first Onsen vacation and looking for an unforgettable experience.

A very relaxing stay in Taipei City. Close to shops and metro station.

A lovely traditional hot-spring hotel

Good Location, Very nice hotel wit nice Onsen, nice Food, strong Wifi.

Very friendly staff and wonderful Onsen experience

Had an excellent 2 nights stay at boun. We arrived late at around 6:30pm from shinjuku ( almost 5 hours by bus from bus terminal). We emailed the hotel to come pick us up and it was done, luckily we did so because it was quite dark and cold. Arrival: We arrived and was greeted warmly by hotel staff and promptly following they served dinner in our room. The hotel is very well kept and looked very new. Meals: The meals were excellent with a great variety in food served. We’ve stayed at many onsen ryokan within Japan and this is one of the good ones. 2 night stay with totally different themed dinner menu. Onsens: There are 3 onsens and they alternate between male and female according to the time frame. All 3 of the onsens have a small outdoor onsen that is accessed from indoor onsen. The onsens are clean and pretty spacious and not overcrowded as the hotel is relatively small and cozy. The source of the hot spring is very good for relieving muscle tension and has very little smell. Surrounding: Very close to the centre of the town but not over touristy as noun is located a little higher with a small walk upwards to get to hotel. Overall: We were very happy to have stayed at boun with their great staff and the high level of cleanliness. We truly had a relaxing and comforting stay and were fed stuffed full. We appreciate the size of this ryokan as the noise levels are low and the onsens are rarely crowded Excellent overall!!
