This was an amazing experience, staying in a renovated samurai home. I stayed in the larger suite and had a full view of the garden and a lanterned alcove just outside the bath. Everything is new and clean, and the owners clearly take pride in this historic home. Even the tatami seams are artful. The staff was so friendly. I only speak a little Japanese, but they were patient and kind while I thought of the right words, and check-in was lovely. They also held my bag while I went sightseeing. It was so quiet at night that I slept very well. I didn't hear anything from the restaurant, just the occasional road noise, but it wasn't a bother at all. The traditional futon was cozy! I would absolutely stay here again, especially if I returned with a group because it's a rare 2-bedroom (4 futons) and very spacious.

This place was very clean and traditional, and updated at the same time. Property was beautiful. There’s a nice restaurant on property that serves the best Gyoza. We found a sushi restaurant within walking distance and they were great!

Outstanding

Newly renovated Japanese-style room, eg. tatami, kotatsu table, floor mattresses, etc; lots of antique aspects (it’s an old samurai residence)! Staff was lovely, room is spacious and clean, washroom is clean and modern. The place also has a connected restaurant that specializes in gyoza and it was top notch. If anything, I’d recommend this place on vibes alone!!!

各部屋にエアコンの他に暖房器具が置かれていて、暖かく、過ごせました。
