This was without a doubt the best stay I’ve ever had. The staff were incredibly attentive and helpful, very communicative despite the gap of languages. The room was fantastic with heated tatami mat floors, immaculately clean and well designed. It was an absolute pleasure and 10/10 would stay there again. My wife and I felt like we were treated like absolute royalty.

It was an amazing experience, super clean and attentive staff. Just notice the photo of ryokan's door because it is not obvious where to go and the taxi didnt know either :)

We had the best experience with this beautiful Ryokan. The staff was so sweet, the food was amazing, and the room was 10 out off 10. I definitely recommend this amazing Ryokan. I do recommend to know the basics of Japanese to better communicate with the staff. The location was as well perfect, walk distance from the main attractions and that made it easier for us to visit them without having many tourist around.

Exactly the traditional ryokan experience we were looking for. Kind and attentive staff tended to our every need. The accommodations are clean, comfortable, and quiet with the beautiful smell of cedar permeating the ryokan. Scheduling the bath was done at check in. The shower and bath were fantastic. Very relaxing. Dinner was a phenomenal experience. What a wonderful way to try new preparations and flavors we would typically not know to order. The whole broiled fish was a favorite, along with the one pot course. Skillfully prepared and presented. We chose the traditional Japanese breakfast to round out a traditional Japanese experience and despite it being a very different breakfast than what we would typically have, we loved it! One night was sufficient for us but well worth it. We would gladly come back again!!
