“Peaceful environment and comfortable room”
Lovely location which is within a very densely populated area of various trees and shrubs. Thus feel very close to nature and can see Mt Yufu through the tree canopy.

The room we stayed in was amazing and the staff was extremely nice ! Would definitely recommend going there if you are looking for a nice ryokan experience within an affordable price range (compared to other ryokans). Jason was particularly nice and helped us a lot with our suitcases and with our diner booking :)

“Memorable family stay and want to visit again for sure.”
Standalone style room with back yard access (connected to the nature) and individual spa was amazing. Dinner and breakfast were beautifully decorated and had excellent tastes, exceeding expectation. All staff were very kind and supportive.

“It was excellent”
Property was quaint and very rustic. Staff were very hospitable and the meals very fantastic. The location is a little difficult to find but overall it was ok. Very beautiful property although some areas are a little old. Overall still a wonderful experience.

“Underwhelming after 7 years”
We stayed in a cottage close to the river with a little terrace and the surrounding was beautiful. So too are the two small onsens (the best feature of the ryokan) that you can grab (no booking required) so that mixed bathing is possible, which is also the main reason we revisited here after 7 years.

“Beautiful ryokan and joyful onsen experience”
We stayed on a traditional Japanese room with private onsen (private villa). Excellent and relaxing experience, we enjoyed our private onsen at night with a bit of snow. Personnel were amazing and extremely helpful. The whole complex is magnificent.
