Musashino Grand Hotel And Spa

We spent two weeks here and would happily recommend it. The rooms were clean and quiet, and the staff were friendly and helpful whenever we needed them. The onsen is lovely and fairly large, just across the street. The new shuttle runs to Omiya every 10 minutes, and the hotel is great value for the money.

Nice place, and I enjoyed the breakfast. I only gave it three stars because we had to walk to the onsen, which isn’t inside the hotel.

A good place to stay.

The shower was the main letdown. Some holes in the broken showerhead were blocked, and the strong water pressure left my sensitive skin red. The water also swung between too hot and too cold, while the temperature on the dial didn’t seem to match, so it was hard to adjust. The shower curtain smelled moldy. If those things were fixed, I think the hotel would be even better. The room, shown in the photo as a twin, was bright and had a large table that made it easy to work. Both the room and bathroom were thoroughly cleaned, and there was plenty of space for my suitcase and other luggage. I felt comfortable, and there was even a massage chair. The staff were friendly and very helpful, and upgraded me to a great room because one was available. Parking is free. The station is close, about a seven-minute walk, but restaurants and the downtown area are farther away, so the location isn’t ideal. There’s a hot spring facility about five minutes away on foot, and it seems guests can enter for free. It seems like a good place to stay if you want to enjoy the hot springs and other facilities. I’d recommend it to business travelers, couples, families, and everyone in between. It was a good hotel.
