Fujiya is a beautiful ryokan in the centre of Kurokawa town. We had a great time walking around the town in our yukata, going from onsen to onsen. The food was amazing, served in a private dining room. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful.

Beautiful ryokan experience

Beautiful ryokan with exceptionally warm staff. The meals were outstanding, the baths unforgettable, and the evening observation deck was a nice surprise. My room was very comfortable, with quiet views over the bridge and the river.

A special peaceful place for ultimate relaxation

Stepping foot into Fujiya was magical from the warmth and professionalism of the staff, to the thoughtful decorations throughout the property and room was very special. I felt instantly relaxed right in the middle of town. The staff were always polite and made extra effort to make me feel welcomed. The dinner and breakfast was also exceptionally well prepared and delicious with the use of local ingredients. The onsen was also very nice and the whole property was well maintained. Thank you all for a wonderful and memorable stay!

Beautiful and relaxing stay at Fujiya

From the moment we arrived at Fujiya we felt very welcome. The staff were very kind and made our stay relaxing. We really appreciated their efforts in trying to explain things in english due to our japanese being rather limited - thank you very much for your help. A highlight for us was the building itself: Our japanese style room had a beautiful view of the river and bridge. The private family onsen sent us back in time and the dining room felt very traditional and special to us. All meals were delicious. I will never forget the feeling of being cozy in bed with the sound of the river running and the frogs giving their best concert :)

Acceptable, but a step below other ryokan in the area at this price point.

I had a good stay at Fujiya Ryokan in Kurokawa Onsen. The ryokan’s central location made it easy to explore other nearby onsens, adding to the experience. The food was a highlight, with delicious, high-quality dishes that felt truly authentic. The interior design throughout was beautiful, and the dining area, covered in tatami, was especially charming and immersive. The indoor onsen was well-maintained with a nostalgic “Showa” vibe. I loved the small outdoor small standing area overlooking the river, which led to the sauna—a serene spot to unwind.

Stunning!!

Amazing stay!!! First time staying in traditional ryokan and did not let down. The staff treated us like very honoured guests! We came before check in time but they let us leave our suitcases. When we came back they had already lifted them upstairs to our room! Got robes/kimono to wear. Our room had a nice view of the river. Welcome drinks provided. Had our own toilet in our room, while no shower as there is a shared onsen downstairs (separate gender ones and family onsen). Dinner was STUNNING! Many courses so I was super full!! The man who served us during dinner was so polite and explained what all the foods were. Although I didn’t expect much English all the staff did speak very well! Breakfast also was massive and delicious!

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.

Romantic hotel in a romantic town

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.

I wish we stayed longer!!!!

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 ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Traditional onsen ryokan

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.

beware solo travellers

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!
