Dogo Onsen Funaya

It is a beautiful property with onsen and a garden. The emperor has stayed here on the past. The room was just lovely with a separate living area from the bedroom and a huge bathroom. Lots of amenities. It is very close to Dogo onsen. The staff were so kind and helpful in finding what we needed.

Can’t think of a thing!

Rooms are very large: more a suite. Wonderful onsen: wooden stools and bowls, no plastic here. Wonderful indoor and outdoor pools. Very helpful pleasant staff. Footbath in garden is gorgeous. On main tram routes and next to the Dogo Onsen so easy to get around town. Luxurious, sparkling clean and comfortable.

I do not like having to say the night before when I shall want breakfast (or, come to that, what I shall want): makes me feel part of a tour rather than an independent traveller. A very minor niggle. I think they have a fair number of groups so perhaps set up to cater for them. Friend in Western-style room said it could do with sprucing up a bit and was not as shiny as our Japanese style room.

The breakfast were great. We tried both Japanese and Western breakfast for the 2 days that we stayed and it was delicious. The staff that brought us to our room don't speak English but she use her phone to translate and communicate with us. It was very thoughtful of her.

Super clean and large rooms. Warm & welcoming staff. The onsen was really nice & clean. The garden is an oasis of tranquility. It was nice that we had a balcony and could open the windows. The location was right in Dogo Onsen and it was nice that one could walk around in the Yukata in the town and visit other onsen. The breakfast was really nice.

It was a bit expensive. One could expect that dinner would be included in the price.
