It was my first trip to a ryokan, but I was satisfied beyond my expectations. The quality of the hot spring water was very good, and the dinner and breakfast were also at a Japanese standard level. The owner of the ryokan was very kind.

SHUI CHING KELVIN

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Spacious and clean room but of older styles and conditions. Staff were excellent and very welcoming. Dinner and breakfast were superb and traditional Japanese style set meals. Hot spring baths (both inside and outside) were of excellent traditional styles and not shared with other guests. The main minor issue was that you cannot drive directly to the door because of narrow road access. We need to park somewhere at the main road and the staff would transport us and luggages to the hotel. Not a big deal but better be aware of. Because of we drove directly there instead of pickup from station (part of their service), they offered us free drinks for dinner and that was very much appreciated.

Lovely stay

The amazing hosts made us feel very welcome and there’s a special warm feeling in this accommodation. The hosts gave us a ride to and from the train station, which worked great. There’s 4 lovely onsens inside the accommodation. The place feels like you’re at your grandma’s house, which is kind of nice but also it wouldn’t hurt if it was renovated a bit to a more modern style.

Look no further, book here. You will like it..

From the host greeting you on arrival to leisurely chatting to you and seeing you off in the driveway. You really can't fault this place. Perhaps it's normal by Japanese hospitality standards and this is why people love visiting the country as well as what the area has to offer. Highly recommended to those seeking an experience to stay at a more traditional type of accomodation with enough privacy to access their facilities (hot springs) etc.
