Kinugawa Onsen Hotel (162) - River-View Ryokan With Ballroom Power

A 1,200 m² pillar-free hall (400 classroom) plus two salons handle single-track congresses; three coaches unload directly into the porte-cochère. 162 keys spread over two towers mean most delegations stay under one roof. Tobu limited-express trains from Asakusa reach Kinugawa-Onsen Station in 2 hrs, and the hotel’s shuttle (3 min) keeps transfers friction-free.

Lanterns flicker on the riverbank while taiko echoes between tree-covered cliffs. Delegates soak in cypress baths perfumed with sulfur spring water, then don yukata and cross a vermilion bridge to a private river-terrace BBQ. Morning brings matcha in a tatami salon as mist curls over the gorge—business conversations float easily when nature, culture and comfort merge so tightly.
