Ein sinnlicher Ort auf hohem Qualitätsniveau

Ein wunderschöner Ort mit nur ganz wenigen Zimmern und sehr persönlicher Betreuung . Alles ist außergewöhnlich schön. Der Garten, das Zimmer, das Bad und das Essen. Ich habe mich nie so gut japanisch gefrühstückt. Auch mein Abendessen war sehr gut. Alles ist eine große Freude für die Sinne. Vielen Dank an die bezaubernden Mitarbeiter.

隠れ家的な清楚でモダン、それでいて歴史を感じさせる重厚な佇まい

和洋折衷が、バランスよく混在する時代や年代を飛び越えた新しい感覚の旅館です。料理も、アイデアに跳び、創意工夫が至る所に感じる事が出来て、そこには、伝統をベースに、新しい時代への挑戦する勇ましさを感じる事が出来ました。スタッフの方々の懇切丁寧な所作とおもてなしに対する試行錯誤の気概に対して、心から敬意を表します。
