I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel.
I love this town for its distinctly authentic Japanese feel. It is nestled in the mountains, a gorgeous drive from Tokyo (If you have the time, drive!) Many places to drop in for a foot soak, lots of little shops and restaurants. Prepare to wait in the busy season (which I believe is the fall and winter). This time we stayed in a traditional Japanese hotel with tatami and only futons for sleeping- being from the US, this made the trip especially fun but make sure you are ok with getting up and down from the floor. There are less people who speak English than in the major cities. But if you are comfortable pointing and smiling and trying google translate, it is a beautiful place to visit. Note that people with limited mobility may find the town difficult to navigate (steps and steep hills). Better for adults, but there is a little tropical zoo nearby and the onsen demonstration is fun.

Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter.
Lovely Onsen town. Simply magical during winter. We went in February and it was snowing. Family love it so much that we’re planning to visit for next winter. A lot of private hot spring and delicious food. We had kaiseki for breakfast and dinner at our ryokan. Definitely worth the trip and ain’t too far from Tokyo. Stay a night if possible.

If you want to experience the quintessential Japanese, hot-spring town in the mountains then, Kusatsu is the place for you. It takes a while to get there with the train and bus but if you have the time then I would recommend it. The culture surrounding hot-springs is unique to the Japanese and there is no better place to experience it.
Get early there for a day trip because most buses coming down to the train station stop running around 7 PM.

Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings.
Kusatsu is a great place for natural hotsprings. Great Onsen. Its best to go for relaxation purpose and take a dip in the hotsprings. The places to look out for are 1) Yubatake (center of the town) - Please do visit in the evenings as well when the lights turn ON and make it a beautiful view.
2) Sainokawara Park and Open air Onsen. This is a must visit place to spend good walk in the park and then visit Open air Onsen
JR Bus station is very close to center - Yubatake. So it's just a 5mins walk and also there are round trip bus by JR to all sightseeing spots. Most of the resorts offer shuttle bus service also; so I recommend to check with your resort before booking. This really helped us.
The food is next best thing in Kusatsu. However if you are Vegetarian like us you might find difficulty to find good restaurants. However, there are a couple of Italian restaurants that offer good pasta and pizza which is loaded with vegetables.
One major thing to note is the Bus service from Kusatsu Bus station to Nagonahara Kusatsuguchi. The bus service is not regular; so please check it and plan your outbound trip.

The Yubatake area is picturesque and has many nearby shops with Japanese treats you can take out and eat/drink while sitting and enjoying the ambiance of Yubatake. Lots of traditional Japanese buildings, walkable streets with shops selling souvenirs and Japanese treats. Be sure to take the 10min walk from Yubatake thru Sainokawahara Koen (Park) to the large outdoor hot spring bath Sainokawhara Rotenburo.

The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs.
The iconic attraction of kusatsu are the hot springs. I have tried various ones, Kusatsu hot springs are relaxing and the the feeling is wonderful.
The food in the town is delicious, I tried Udon with Tempura in some places, it was just delicious.
Don’t forget to try the onsen tamago as a speciality of the town.
The hotel onsen was great. There are also private onsen rooms for booking.
The food was excellent for both breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was a buffet. It was good and surprisingly had more Japanese food choices than many other hotels. Dinner was definitely worth the price. We just got the regular set but great and filling.
The hotel staff was really friendly and helpful. They didn't speak very much English but it was no trouble.
This is one of the hotels that are close to downtown, and about 15 min walk to the bus terminal.
last minute booking, all of the hotel at kusatsu onsen are fully booked, I did not expect much. However the hotel end up quite good. Spacious room especially for the 3 bed room. The bed come with heated blanket. Free wifi but nowadays all hotel have free wifi. Good location, hotel located in between Bus station and yubatake (city center)
Very good hotel and service was excellent, staff were very helpful and attentive. There is a private onsen available for reservation. Overall everything is good, if compared to the price it is considered very worthwhile. Hotel was clean, has good options and If there is a chance to come back to this hotel again.
Great place with comfortable rooms.Onsen is perfect that you have to try it but this hotel’s front desk’s staffs are cold welcoming with poor English! Foreigners should choose this hotel carefully due to their front desk service.Asking for invoices when checking out and they can’t offer it.
It’s very close to bus station.
Their public onsen was exceptional! They had both indoor and outdoor onsen for both men and women.
And it was available almost 24 hrs.
Staffs and services were also nice.
Splendid to relax on your vacation. Wanted to stay more.
I really loved it. :)
Location was good. There’s a public bath and free face and leg onsen right next door. Walking distance to Yubatake.
Like the fact that there’s private and public onsen options too in the hotel for those who are feeling shy.
Food prepared was very delicious and good portion!
Amazing room with a amazing staff!! The room was incredible, with everything you could ask for and more, the private bath was wonderful and the beds were great! Truly an experience if you want to relax and enjoy Kusatsu Onsen.
A beautiful Hotel for a beautiful city ! The manager is extremely kind and attentive, I was very well received 🙂 The rooms and the onsens are really great 👍 Will come back in the futur for sure
The hotel staff were very hospitable, the outdoor onsen bath was very nice and the food was great! The view from the balcony facing the town is beautiful. The room was comfortable and clean.
Close to centre town Kusatsu and all the onsens, good local suggestions from the owner, and the kotatsu (japanese heated table) was a nice touch in the colder fall weather.
- Onsen at the resort was nice, particularly the outdoor ones.
- Onsen is nearly open 24h
- Japanese traditional room
- Good location, not too far from the centre
