湯量がとても豊富な温泉宿で快適に過ごせた。 1人向けの部屋も多く、ハイシーズンでも1人で泊まれる。部屋の風呂からも高温の源泉が出る。泉質の特色は薄いが、湯量と温度が凄い。当然全浴槽が源泉掛け流しだが、源泉が熱すぎて新湯の投入量が少ない。コストを掛けるところかけないところのメリハリがよく、宿泊費は安め。よく運営が工夫されている。伝統的な高級宿のサービス（布団上げ下げ、案内、部屋食…）は期待しないこと。ただ、様々配慮が行き届いており、値段以上の満足感が得られた。広めの部屋で畳にベッドが快適。建物は古いが、設備はきちんと更新されている。高台で日当たりや景色は良い。魚の卸会社の経営だが、食事は質より量の印象。量と種類が凄い（夕食は肉、魚、夏でもカニ）。周辺の道は狭い為、南側からの侵入がお勧め。各種旅行サイトで予約出来る。各サイトで値段が結構違う。相見積もり必須（Yahooトラベル経由で一休利用PAYPAY割が安かった）。

湯村温泉に来た時には良く利用させてもらってます。バイクツーリング🏍️で宿泊する事が多いのですが平日やシーズンオフの時期は非常にリーズナブルな価格で内容の良い宿泊プランが多く助かります。ハイシーズンでもりょうしんてきな価格かと思います。旅行サイトでお得なプランを探して下さい。温泉♨️は、湯村温泉ですし。大浴場も広さ充分です。露天も山の中の温泉♨️感が高く雰囲気は良いです。食事も内容の良いメニューで不満足はありません。ここの食事が不満な方は高級宿に泊まれば良いでしょう。☺️ 湯村温泉は豪華な所はたくさんあります。流石に施設の老朽化は否めず古いお宿です。若い方で昭和感を味わいたいならオススメですよ。オジサンには懐かしく落ち着くお宿です。古い=汚いと感じる方は最初からやめておいた方が良いかと思いますが清掃は行き届いており。ここにも不満足はありません。スタッフさんも、愛想、対応の良い方ばかりで動きを見てるとヘタなホテルよりも気持ちが良いですよ。☺️
