The staff and environment were lovely. We were invited to relax and enjoy a cup of tea before checking in while the staff assisted other guests. The entire lobby and sitting areas instantly promote a sense of calm and serenity. Unfortunately for us, we didn’t realize we should have arrived earlier in order to reserve a time in the bath. We were disappointed about this but that was our “rookie” mistake. The room was clean and quaint. We enjoyed the use of the yukata provided and the futons and bedding were very comfortable. The duvets and sheet coverings were so soft and fluffy. Thank you for a real treat of this Japanese ryokan experience!

My stay here was amazing definitely my favorite place I stayed at while I was exploring Japan for 2 weeks. The rooms were gorgeous with the tatami mats and traditional decor. The whole staff was incredibly kind and accommodating special shoutout to Sana for helping me find fun things to do around the city and for making my bed lol. Even when I accidentally missed the breakfast that I scheduled and showed up 3 hours late they were all very nice and still gave me excellent food and service sorry if I stressed y’all out! I had an amazing time the staff made me feel very welcome and at home and I highly recommend staying here if you have the chance!
