This ryokan was impeccable. The food was on point and the service was top notch. The baths were very nice and even better was the in room bath which used the hot springs water. I wish i booked more than 1 night there as the town was also very cool and wished I spent more time wandering around. This place is highly reccomended and would come back.

I loved the experience! Everyone was so warm and welcoming. They took great care showing me around and seemed to be standing by for anything I might need. The meals were exquisitely, artfully arranged - every vessel perfectly chosen and beautifully styled. I got to try lots of new things and found it absolutely charming. Nice and quiet location, too. I slept like a ton of bricks.
