The staff were very attentive and helpful. The room was beautiful and so was the view. We really enjoyed the forest private bath, and if we’d stayed longer we would have also tried the mountain view bath. We found that the meals offered plenty of food - bordering on too much for us. We would have liked the option to pick what we wanted to eat from the days menu rather than take every dish.

Really cool stay if you’re looking for a traditional Japanese Ryokan/Onsen vibe. The building is older and does have a moldy smell (which isn’t suprising considering the moisture from the Onsen’s) The Onsen’s were tattoo friendly as I have a full sleeve and they didn’t care. Don’t have to pay extra for private onsen if you don’t have one in your room. My wife and I slept on the Tatami mats and I will say I’m glad it was only 1 night, cool to experience but definitely woke up stiff and sore. The food experience was extremely unique and definitely not for everyone. Traditional Japanese cuisine and ingredients. Overall was a fun experience and the staff were excellent!

This is the best Onsen and Kaiseki experience I’ve had so far (out of a half dozen). Everything was great.

It was very hard to communicate from the ryokan since most tourists do not have Japanese phone number. We will not coming back.

if you want to live in a Japanese-style hotel, look no further. The facilities and staff are outstanding. Tatami floors. Futon beds. Serene property. Hot outdoor soaking tubs. A really nice change of pace from Tokyo.

I have zero frame of reference for this review as this was my first time staying at a ryokan. We went in the middle of summer and most of the facility, save the rooms themselves, isn’t air conditioned. We weren’t expecting ac in a traditional Japanese inn, so that was fine. It was just a bit stuffy during check in. The baths were clean and well kept. Definitely listen for the train before walking from the changing room to the bath or you might give some random peeps some random peeps. I immediately fell in love with onsens and bathed 4 times in 2 days! Dinner and breakfast were served in the room and while I enjoyed dinner, my wife and kids did not. Again, it was traditional Japanese food and I have no frame of reference as an ignorant westerner; so all I can say is that the sashimi was great, the abalone was very unique (not as scary to eat as it looked) and the bulk of both meals featured dishes of gel-like texture (which my wife doesn’t find palatable) When looking a reviews online, it seemed like guests were given a choice between two main courses, but during our stay, we only had one option. You can ask for the kids meal if texture is a big deal for you. Anyway it was a very cool experience that I’m glad we got a change to be a part of. I appreciate the staff using English where possible to talk to us.
