Tornare a respirare

10.0

La struttura è moderna ma allo stesso tempo ha un'aura antica, il personale è di una gentilezza incredibile, tutto è maniacalmente pulito e curato . Il paesaggio visto dalle enormi vetrate è incantevole, la cena e la colazione sono superbe, l'onsen privato con vista su fiume e montagna, incredibile ed è bellissimo vagare per il parco alla scoperta del fiume e del bosco. Consigliatissimo per prendere fiato e allontanarsi un attimo dalla frenesia della città.

An incredibly blissful stay

The staff took care of every detail, and allowed us to relax to the fullest.

We would have preferred to have some nearby hiking options.
