Would not recommend this stay!

Let me start by saying that the service and staff were impeccable, and the food was traditional and delicious. But the other parts of our stay did not feel luxurious or comfortable. We stayed in a standard Japanese room A with tatami beds. The room had a funky musty odor and overheated at night. We finally had to cool it down by opening the door, but only to hear trains go by. The room had an air purifier in it which should’ve been a signal of the sewage like smell which may have been emanating from the drain pipe outside or the bathroom. Eventually, I used earplugs and sprayed perfume around me to be able to sleep. The pillows are bulky and hard which may be traditional and unfortunately I didn’t think to ask if they had a different type of pillow till late at night. The room does not have much of an outdoor space, and no view of Japanese gardens as I had imagined might be. Other room types may have nicer backyard and outdoor tub, but definitely not this one. In fact, the entire property does not have a garden to walk around or much of an outdoor space to lounge in. Private onsen has to be booked in advance as well as the dated looking swimming pool. Our meals were in banquet hall looking space that also lacked charm (maybe they put us there because we had kids with us). Overall, our stay did not meet expectations at the price point we paid and unfortunately I will not be recommending this stay.

Gora Kadan

While the hotel was probably beautiful at some point, it is in dire need of updating. It looks like it wasn’t renovated since the 50s. The odor in the room was unbearable, we couldn’t sleep as it was so intense... There were train tracks right next to our room, with A LOT of traffic - which also didn’t help with the sleeping. The communication of the front desk was poor, to say the least. I emailed them 3 times to discuss our late arrival, and therefore that we wouldn’t have dinner there - I never heard back, and they charged me for a dinner I didn’t 2. I also told them that we would be two guests instead of 3, but they claimed that they had to hear from Hotels.com to refund me the difference, which they never did. Bottom line: no good!
