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.

I stayed for 2 nights and loved every moment at the hotel. Every staff member I met were so incredibly nice and welcoming and even gave me an umbrella when I checked out as it was raining which I wasn't expecting at all (thank you for the gentleman that gave it to me on check out, saved me from getting wet going to the store to buy one!) The room was so nice and it really felt like I was staying in a traditional inn. Thank you to everyone for making my stay so comfortable. Worth every penny.
