Nice building but a terrible experience

The onsen was good and the building's exterior and interior was nice.

A very friendly traditional ryokan, a 30 minute walk away from Kawazu station. As a solo traveling tourist with almost no knowledge of Japanese, I was a little intimidated upon arrival, but the staff was very kind and patient. The breakfast was delicious and filling, with a lovely view of the sea and the mountain. The hotel has two private onsen, with a light system to let you know which are vacant and which are locked. Each onsen has an indoor and an outdoor bath. It felt luxurious to have it to myself! The bedroom was elegant and relaxing. I also enjoyed that they lent me a yukata to use as loungewear.

A lovely hotel, perfect for our short weekend trip to relax. There is a beautiful view from breakfast to start your day, and two private onsens to relax in. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and have advice and suggestions for places to visit

Would definitely stay again

This was one of our favourite places we stayed. Very welcoming and friendly staff. In a great location and within walking distance of the train station too. Lovely peaceful atmosphere and our room had a nice view. I would easily recommend.

A quiet paradise in a small town. There’s not much around (in terms of restaurants or stores) but that’s the point. It’s calm and peaceful. All amenities provided (from yukata and towels to cotton swabs and green tea). Two great little private onsens on site. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Amazing breakfast with a view on surrounding mountains and the sea. Hope to come back here again.

Japanese culture emersion

The hospitality was brilliant!! This was an emersion in Japanese culture and I enjoyed every moment - from leaving my shoes at the entrance, wearing a kimono to the private onsen, the huge room with tatami flooring to the excellent Japanese breakfast. I stayed for 5 nights and this was not enough! The hotel is uphill and my room had a lovely view downhill and over the sea shore. Vending machines are available downstairs. The hotel is in a very quiet environment. I sprained my ankle quite badly and the owner offered to take me back to the station, which I really appreciated

Worth staying there definetly if you want a quite and wholesame escape from the noises, and enjoy the nature.

The best thing about this hotel is its owner and workers. They were really nice and helpful durint our stay. When we checked out it was raining quite heavily and we didnt have any umbrella on us, so they gave us 2 for free, and they also gave us a ride to Kawazu station. Even though they don’t speak very good english they are super nice. Its a beautiful small hotel on a small hill, the view is quite nice to the mountains and to the ocean as well. The hotel has two private onsens, which can be used basically whole day and night.

Perfect japanese experience.

This is perfect if you would like a traditional Japanese experience. It is a little outside of Kawazu town centre and up a very large hill to my surprise. I definitely suggest using Imaihama-kaigan station to access the property. The staff were lovely, warm and welcoming and couldn't do more for you throughout the stay! I honestly loved my experience. The food was unique and exceptional and different every day. Also suggest stocking up on snacks as there is no convenience stores close by and most eateries are only open thurs-sun so be aware you may need to go elsewhere if you don't eat at the property. The also leave the cutest japanese cookie for you upon arrival! Such a sweet touch! And daily you can select from a new kimono to wear around the property! I felt very pretty in all the different patterns. The onsen was a dream come true. I had no issues using it whenever I wanted as the property doesn't share with many people. Showers are available 24hrs but onsen only from 10am. I would love to come back but I'm not sure my allergies would.

Authentic experience, good value for money in a Ryokan.

The originality- an authentic experience. Dinner exceptional and great. Would have been great to have a menu in english/ french with the different dishes to a fuller experience of the tasting. Onsen experience was great as it had both inside and outside. Beautiful view to the ocean and mountains from our room.

Really nice stay in a Japanse style

Onsen was really nice! We stayed in a Japanese style room which was a very good experience. Keep in mind that you have to walk up hill to the accommodation for around 7 minutes. If you have a lot of luggage it might be hard.

I like the onsen. The Japanese breakfast. The very friendly staff. The closest way to drop your suitcase is from the train station, just before Kawazu station , Imaihama Kaigan Station. (avoid the steps , use the road)
