Awesome ryokan located in a super cool spot in Kinugawa. Our room was large and had a great view of the suspension bridge going over the river. The room smelled like hay but I think that was from the new tatami mats in our room, which for that reason I don’t mind. Hotel is old but extremely clean and well-maintained. Onsen is great and there are also private baths available for rental. This is my second time staying here and I would 100% stay again in the future.

Awesome ryokan located in a super cool spot in Kinugawa. Our room was large and had a great view of the suspension bridge going over the river. The room smelled like hay but I think that was from the new tatami mats in our room, which for that reason I don’t mind. Hotel is old but extremely clean and well-maintained. Onsen is great and there are also private baths available for rental. This is my second time staying here and I would 100% stay again in the future.

I loved the private onsen and the ryokan stay. The buffet was also excellent. The hotel provides yukata robes to wear while you’re walking around the hotel. We also had a great view of the suspension bridge from my room.

Room little dated but extremely spacious, and very clean. Only comment is lack of USB port. Buffet was adequate but missing the ‘wow’ factor. Property was little far from train station, I think it would be much convenient if the shuttle will bring guess back to hotel instead of just one way to the train station.

I want to start this review off by saying, I WILL be back. My stay at this hotel was almost dreamlike. It's something that I don't want to forget. The room was prepared perfectly, and the service was a 10/10. The breakfasts dinners that were prepared were unique and delicious all around. The staff was kind. I think this hotel and the surrounding town were the perfect getaway from the fast city life. It really gave me time to relax

Stayed 6 nights in a traditional Japanese room with tatami mats in early to mid-November. Location and views were good. Very limited dining options in area. Onsen was good. Cons: room did not have any heat, it was cold in the room and supposedly a heater was available but to be honest that seemed like a fire hazard. The floor futon and blankets provided were warm. Hotel did not provide in room coffee so we bought our own along with coffee mugs. Very old room, bathroom floors creaked and the small chairs and table provided showed their age. Oddly, we received room service the first night but never again—fresh towels, tea packets and snacks were left on a table outside the room for 5 nights which meant our room was not vacuumed or cleaned. We vacated the room each day from 8 am-3 pm. We let the front desk know it was okay to enter the room but to no avail. Room pictures deceptive, maybe it was just the floor or particular room we were given. Nice front desk staff.
