Kohan No Yado Yoshidaya

This once grand hotel is now a little tired but still a great place to stay. We had a family room Japanese style overlooking the lake. The bath house inside was well equipped and large, but looked very pink like a 1970's hairdressers. The outside bath on the roof, only open during the hours when the inside bath was closed, was more basic but fun to be outdoors watching the birds on the thermals above us. They still have local dancers to entertain guests each evening. It was an opportunity to see some cultural activities that were specific to Sado Island. The breakfast was in a small dining room overlooking the lake. I think the bus tour guests ate in a larger dining room as there were only a few people in ours. The food was local and excellent, and each dish was explained to us by staff. It varied each day.

Spacious and clean rooms

Although a bit dated interior and facilities, it is a great value for money stay. With onsen and rotenburo on the roof. Also, nearby enough places to eat at night😊

staff was excellent and the baths were really good. The location was also great, if you had a car.

Big and confortable room with all amenities and nice view on the lake Nice onsen + rotemburo on the rooftop
