The river view was beautiful, but shared baths got crowded in the mornings.

The room offers a stunning view of the river, providing a beautiful morning backdrop and the warmth of plenty of blankets for colder nights. The shared bathrooms are clean and modern, ensuring a comfortable experience despite the shared facilities.

Loud guests can disrupt the peace, given the traditional structure's thin walls, making sound travel more than you'd expect. Privacy worries arise when staff enter rooms without prior notice, creating a slightly uncomfortable atmosphere for those seeking solitude. The older building's age shows in winter temperatures, as even with two heaters, the rooms can feel quite chilly at night.

Intimate moments spent sharing laughter with staff.

The river view was beautiful, but it felt outdated and needed repairs.

lovely, lovely, lovely

I adored the cozy ambiance created by the antique furnishings in our Japanese Style Room with Private Bathroom, making each moment feel special. The Kaiseki breakfast was absolutely delightful, especially the hoba miso that truly highlighted local flavors. Every evening, coming back to the warmth of our futons after a day of exploration was simply blissful.

This place suits me perfectly, providing everything I need, wi-fi, air conditioning, luggage storage, and a flat-screen TV. On my first stay, the staff even helped me with a late check-out. Their kindness made my experience special. I highly recommend enjoying the breakfast! I’m definitely coming back for another trip.

The Japanese-Style Room with Shared Bathroom was cozy, filled with charm. Lots of space for our things and the futon beds were super comfy! The view of the river from the room was beautiful, which made mornings even nicer. The shared bathroom was clean, but there was some noise from other guests, which was a bit distracting. it felt like a unique experience steeped in tradition.

Incredible traditional experience that felt like home!

I had an amazing stay at this lovely ryokan! The owners were incredibly kind and attentive, ensuring every detail was perfect, from the beautifully presented meals to the cozy futons. The Kaiseki breakfast was definitely a standout, especially the hoba miso—so flavorful! The location by the river was idyllic, adding to the peaceful atmosphere of my experience. I only wish I had booked a longer stay to soak it all in.

I loved the cozy futons and the delicious breakfast served in my room, it really set a nice tone for my day! The garden area had lovely spots to relax, like the peaceful tea corner and a charming little pond. The only downside was that the shared bathroom was a bit dated, but it didn't affect my stay at all. 😊
