I did not realize when booking this was closer to a traditional ryoken than hotel room. It was an unexpected joy! The onsen was wonderful and the room was so interesting. I'm thrilled we got to have this experience staying here. We ate at the sitting table, set up our beds, and walked on the traditional flooring. Again absolutely unexpected and wonderful! And the room was huge which was great for four people.

    The family who runs this guest house has thought of everything. Looking for an extension cord so phone can be next to your futon? It’s in the room. Want to heat something up? Microwave on the 4th floor. You can adjust the lighting in the room, there’s extra blankets and I could go on. Everything is clean and cozy, and the family is very friendly. I especially liked the outdoor onsen.

    Well appointed Ryokan on the mountainside above the Kiso valley. Food was delicious and incredibly generous. Staff were very accommodating of dietary restrictions. Relaxing onsen with a charming garden setting. A wonderful experience.

    The staff were very helpful and gave great local recommendations for places to visit around town. The onsen was fantastic, everything was provided and the temperature was perfect. We were walking a few sections of the Nakasendo trail and this was a great place to rest. There’s a local hot spring foot bath close by which was perfect to soak our feet after a long day of walking - with the added bonus of enjoying ice cream and a view!

    This was a lovely traditional Japanese ryokan. The outdoor onsen was beautiful and so peaceful in nature. The free stargazing tour was wonderful and the guide was so knowledgeable. The food included was delicious and generous, and it was nice to taste so many different Japanese foods. We were picked up and dropped off at the train station, included in the room rate. The ryokan is in a nice quiet location, but only a short journey from the station. The staff were very friendly.

    Nice location, our room looked out over the river. 15 minute walk from the train station. Tatami mat room with futons on bed-frames. Honestly would have preferred futon directly on the tatami mats. Onsen was small but clean and nice. Wasn't crowded when we used it. We also had a delicious dinner here and the breakfast buffet was generous.

    Wonderful ryokan experience. Friendly staff, amazing japanese food. Both traditional japanese breakfast and dinner were amazing and put together with so much love. They were able to accommodate pescatarians. :) We stayed in the traditional tatami room and loved it. The room was a bit older, but they have newer rooms too. We loved the old one. They provide shuttle service which is great as location is bit remote.

    We stayed in traditional Japanese room with shared bathroom. We slept on futon on Tatami mats. Best sleep ever even for my older parents who were concerned with potential back issues without a bed. Hotel is deeper into the valley so you can hear sounds of the running river. It’s so serene. The onsen was perfect after long days on our feet. The dinner and breakfast were both incredible. The staff were so sweet. We appreciated the shuttle from the station to the hotel. Would love to stay again.
