No doubt the hotel may look slightly old, but you could not complain much as it has almost everything you need. Went during early November 2019, off season though which was good as there were not many people staying there. Staff was ever so helpful and friendly. Rooms were spacious, good spread for breakfast buffet and also car park. It was nearby an outdoor foot spa, souvenir shops and places to eat as well. We enjoyed our stay there for sure.

An interesting hotel for sure

This hotel appears to be very family run sort of hotel . There is an old charm about the place . Our rooms were the tatami sort , clean but much prefer the beds sort because of the constant getting up and down which can become difficult as one gets older . 
Onsens are double storied . No outdoor onsen but the water appears to be quite acidic . One is able to soak for about 20 minutes and the skin is ultra silky smooth after that . 
Dinner was good with a good variety of cooked food . Only downside , chopsticks should be of a better quality which would have made the whole experience more enjoyable . 
Breakfast was more basic but adequate . 
Parking was free. 
This hotel would have a five from me if not for the chopsticks and non existent wifi. This hotel is definitely good value for money . 

Old hotel with good renovated onsen

The highlight of the hotel is really the double floored Onsen, with five separate pools containing water of different temperatures to your liking. The water is highly acidic and sulphurous, which makes you feel like you’re really bathing in a geothermal vent. 

The staff are hospitable, going above and beyond to ensure we had a good time, from ensuring we had a speedy check in to helping us with the windscreen scraper in the morning. 

The rooms have basic amenities. The restaurant serves up a pretty decent meal, although I preferred the breakfast buffet service to the dinner kaiseki service, which I never thought would ever happen. The buffet breakfast had a good mix of traditional Japanese and continental items, all of which were pretty good quality.

Sulphurous Onsen in a Touristic Hotel

I stayed here for one night. The staff didn't speak English but tried everything to give me a good stay. The rooms and the hotel was a bit out-dated but hey, you are in Hokkaido, this is not Kyoto! I liked it. There were a lot of families in the hotel so sometimes it was a bit noisy (old doors and walls). But, if you go to the onsen after 10PM you have it all for yourself. There are 4 or 5 baths. One was so hot I couldn't put my hand in it. The water comes straight from Mount Iouzan.

Old Japanese style hotel with in-house onsen

This town must have to be home to the most acidic onsen water ever to be funnelled into a hotel pool!  Beware if you have any broken skin as this water stings.  But it feels sooo good!!  Lovely sulphur smell, with clearer (I suspect) watered down pools next to cloudy offerings.    There is a small basin and cup with which to taste the hot spring within the bathing area - interesting to try, but it will strip the enamel off your teeth if you have more than a sip.
We arrived too late for hotel dinner and chose a 12000yen (2 people) plan that didn't include breakfast so I can't comment on the food offered. 
We asked for a non-smoking room and actually got one that didn't smell of stale cigarettes - yay. Futons seemed harder than usual and the decor was nothing to write home about. The hotel is on the corner diagonally opposite the free foot baths on the main road, so no views to speak of.  That said, I think I'd probably come back here as the water is so unique and it was quite cheap. 
It's a pity this onsen doesn't have any open air pools - but there are 5 here, and a waterfall massage type thingy. Wash and change facilities are basic.

pH 1.7 Onsen water - WOW!!!

Nice spacious lobby, very seamless check-in, reception had a decent command of English, a lot better than my Japanese. 
Rooms were traditional Japanese tatami, though this gave full sized mattresses. Rooms are clean, however showing much it's age, peeling wall paper/ceiling, worn vanish on wood and leaky faucet. I guess the rooms is comfy enough for night's stay. 
Not exactly budget price either, JPN 40,200 for two rooms one night.
Sink or basin really low like for a child and the door way low too. 

Showing it's Age

The room was all heated up when we got in from the April snow so no cold to worry about. Although the hotel wasn't very full, I could tell we had neighbours right next door as the walls were thin and noise came through. The onsen was not very big with only a few baths, but the water was very nice. It seems that in this hotel, you take not just a face towel but a body towel from your room, and then take them back to your room - I didn't realise and only took a face towel, expecting to find body towels and baskets to put used towels in. However I was by myself the whole time so it was fine! Wi-fi was only available in the lobby.

Old hotel, but good onsen

We found the Kinkiyu hotel to be rather tired but it was busy with Japanese families on the weekend we stayed here. We were in room 527, a Japanese-style room for four.  As well as the sleeping area there was a western-style sitting area, where the furniture was dated and the carpet rather stained. It even had an old fashioned dial telephone. However we were comfortable and the split room made it possible to put children to bed and still have the sitting area.  The onsen was also dated but was still nice. The hotel is on the cross roads with the public foot bath. There is free parking. Breakfast is exclusively Japanese food, which seemed to be pretty good quality. The staff were helpful too.
