Dormy Inn Niigata Natural Hot Spring

The Onsen was very pristine and nice, with hot bath, cold bath, sauna and outdoor bath. Washing machines were free to use, which was very handy and the breakfast was cheap and statisfying, even if a bit small. Room facilities were as usual, clean and with everything you need, the room also was pleasently quiet, even tough it was adjacent to the main street.

The rooms don't have showers or bathtub, a thing I've failed to see while booking, but in the end using the onsen to have your daily bath was a more pleasent experience anyway. Rooms were a bit expensive for what they've offered.

The open air bath at the top of the building was really excellent

Excellent service! I was able to check in early and I really appreciated that. Free drinks at front desk and free soba at late night. I forgot my clothes and the hotel was responsive and kept them for me. And free onsen!

The shuttles only run at rush hours. Although not very far from the station, the pavement of the sidewalks in Niigata is not very smooth for towing luggages and is a little bit tough if arriving at times without shuttles.
