Ryokans in Mie Prefecture

"For those who are looking to luxuriate in the onsens of the Kii península… This is a place not to be missed. The cave onsens, especially, were both gorgeous and healing… The other ones perhaps a bit rundown, but still quite a treat. The staff were great (and multi-lingual) and my room was squeaky clean. Highly recommend "

"From the moment of pickup at the Ogoto Onsen station and dropoff, the service was flawless! Check-in is completed while seated in the lobby (rather than standing in queue) and many of the staff speak multiple languages. While the venue is slightly older, it is beautifully maintained and spotless. The 24 component kaiseki dinner is delicious and cheap considering the variety, gorgeous presentation and flavors. N.B. The kaiseki menu is only available in Japanese and even though I'm bilingual, I...

"Wunderschöne japanische Zimmer und ein ganz tolles Onsen. Zimmer haben ein sehr schönen Ausblick auf den Fluss. "

"It was a relaxing stay. Food was amazing. Convenient and easy for non Japanese people to get to and also very accommodating staff. My only complaint with my stay would be the fact the beds were not that comfortable. Especially considering the prices being asked."

"We had an amazing time at this hotel. We would return for sure. The outdoor onsen is beautiful and even thought there were other guests in the hotel, we were the only one using them, so it was quite relaxing. The staff members were so welcoming and friendly, the food was just impeccable. At breakfast time until we left, there was a pianist playing the piano. He was fabulous. We loved everything!! "

"Awesome Onsen. Quick check in. The two open air mineral baths were clean, comfortable and relaxing. The one with the huge lava rocks, natural greenery and small waterfall on the 5th floor was my favorite. On the 11th floor the afternoon and evening it was gently raining and sitting in the Onsen with rain coming down made me feel one with the rain and hot water. The food was awesome, a huge variety and more than I could eat. The room was traditional Japanese and comfortable. My husband and I...

"The property is outstanding and the staff are very willing to help if you are amenable to no chairs in the room and only sitting on the floor. Also the room has no shower, so you either must use shower during your private time or if you miss you time slot you have no choice but to use it during public time. For ladies two showers, so at worse you will share with one other person."

"The building is a bit old, but nice."

"Sea view, superb service, fantastic dinner with fresh sashimi and seafood. One of the best service I received from checking in to checking out. Though Onsen was normal but quite exclusive. Rustic small town. Best for weekdays get away from stressful city life "

"The hotel staff went above and beyond to help us with meeting friends. The dinner and breakfast was the best ever!! Highly recommend!"

"This hotel is amazing from the excellent, friendly staff to the amazing food and the awesome amenities. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

"Meals were excellent "

"The service was great and really appreciated the transport service from the station to the property. The only thing is the property is a bit dated and could use an uplift soon"

"old style hotel currently undergoing renovation. restaurant serve nice food but seemed short staffed. "

"This is an older Hotel that feels like its prime time was in the 1970's and has never left that era and that was perfectly fine by us! This was a great experience we were greeted as we drove up to the property by name as they were waiting for us! The attendant grabbed our bags and lead us to the desk where we checked in and did so in perfect English. We were given our kimonos to wear during our visit which we did. We booked half board we got a nice 5 course dinner and breakfast. The outdoor...

"I love the river view from my room. It’s was traditional and cozy which made it feel safe and like home which I truly enjoyed."

"とにかく安い宿泊料です 風呂は大浴場で男女兼用ですが女性が入るときはガキを借りられますので安全です 入浴中の札もあります 建物は古いですが、気にならない方には良いでしょう 洗濯機も借りられますし、洗剤も50円で売ってくれます "

"Very unique sleeping experience "

"Wakasa Bettei surprised me as one of my favorite hotels in my 8-day Japan trip. I think it came down to the fact that the premises were cozy and new, the location was serene and close to Todaiji, and the staff were just so friendly. Absolutely gorgeous meals for dinner kaiseki and Japanese-style breakfast too. There's a goofy charm in having a violinist serenade us during dinner, and offering to take photos of us in our ukatas smiling next to their mascot. Both public bath options they offered...

"3世代で行きました！施設からの海の景色がとても良かったです？1歳6ヶ月の孫も大喜びでスタッフさんの対応も行き届いていて気持ちよく過ごせました！食事もリーズナブルな割にとても美味しいでした^_^"
