Amazing onsen and staff! The only thing different I would do for next time is not pay for breakfast and eat out since breakfast is only served until 8:30am. Other than that amazing!

I greatly appreciated the experience of sleeping in a ryokan this nice. That said, I’m glad I booked only a single night as I didn’t sleep well on the futon mattress on the floor. The rooms and property are gorgeous and immaculately maintained.

This was by far the best property we stayed at during our entire Japan trip. What stood out about it was the staff. They were the friendliest, most welcoming staff of any hotel I've stayed at ever. You're almost treated like a part of their family which made the experience feel like being at home.
