    A lovely old ryokan that needs updating and training.

    The age of the building made the room very drafty and dark and the lobby was over cluttered. The hotel sent us up the hill in the dark to a different hotel for the open air bath as theirs was very small. The onsen itself was nice but not as clean as others. The staff was not very hospitable compared to many of the other ryokans we have stayed at in Kurokawa.

    It is an old building right on the river, in a great location for the village and onsens. There was free coffee in the lobby before or after breakfast. We had a corner room with a great view of the river.

    Nothing.

    Everything. I don't know how they calculate ratings but this ryoken is easily 4 stars. Probably the cosiest & prettiest ryoken in town. The staff are exceeding nice & attentive. Great dinner & breakfast.

    The 4 person room with split level is a bit tight. The split level has a very low head room and poor ventilation.

    The location is fantastic, just right next to the creek and window opens to the scenery. Hotel itself is quint and full of the nostalgic ryokan feel. Hot springs is great and probably the best we had during our trip.

    It’s perfect

    Everything! I’ve stayed in very expensive ryokans and machias and this lute little places beats them all. The staff was very nice, tbd details in this place… photos won’t do the justice. I have no idea why this place is only rated 3 stars. We stayed second night in the ryokan of 4 stars in the same street and it’s incomparably poor compared to Fujia. I hope one day we come back here and stay longer. Thank you Fujia ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    There was nothing to fault. We just wished we could have experienced dinner at the ryokan as well as breakfast because the breakfast was exceptional but unfortunately the ryokan were not able to provide dinner on this date.

    Loved the ryokan feel, beautifully organised and decorated, felt totally luxurious. Lovely to look at both on the outside and the inside. Felt very well looked after by the staff.

    Situated in a quiet village with ancient Japanese ryokans. Room is great & onsen is good. The room has a roof window which allow us to look at the stars at night in the room. The breakfast is wonderful.

    You get access to an indoor bath and family bath within the ryokan. The outdoor bath is with another ryokan but very beautifully set-up.

    the staff doesn’t speak English not understand. so communication is a bit difficult however they are very kind.

    the location is perfect. the food is very Japanese traditional, so it’s an experience. You can visit the indoor onsen and the open air onsen is nearby at another location

    This was one of the few places that allowed for solo traveller's. Appreciated the quality of the room itself and the dining experience was different (they have a large dinning room with each room portioned out so you are still private). The outdoor onsen was at another location but I found it refreshing to go out for a walk in the winter to get there and back. The outdoor onsen they gave us access to was also pretty good.

    I was expecting the room to be little bigger for this price. Also I though I will have futon, but instead got a western bed.

    Everything was perfect and the property met my expectation. The staff were very helpful and kind and the food was amazing! The best experience was definitely my dinner. It was my first time experience and I learned lots of new things and tried many new dishes. It was very fun!

    I was staying in a room for solo travellers (Biwa room). the room was right next to the reception and was quite basic, a bit smaller than expected - especially the fridge / coffee area is hidden in a small corner where you can’t stand. it doesn’t have a view (it is facing the parking area) and overall feels like a budget room, even though it is not budget at all at 200 euros per night. the worst part is that the room was right in front of a generator which was extremely noisy at night. the overall construction is quite old, so whenever the people in the room above walked around I could hear them very loudly, as if they were in the room. unfortunately I couldn’t sleep at all during the stay, and I suspect also my neighbours were unable to sleep due to the noise. the baths inside the hotel were ok, although I was expecting a slightly more well-maintained area. in the morning the baths were not cold for some reason. overall I would probably not visit this property again as a solo traveller, although it may be nice if you can get a room on the second floor facing the river.

    the property is located in the centre of the village, and it is undoubtedly beautiful both outside and inside. it is walking distance from the main places of interest. the baths - especially the open air baths - are very nice and well maintained, although they are at a different property. the food was very nice both at dinner and breakfast!
