"Staff were incredibly attentive and nice. Even with the language barrier they went above and beyond using Google Translate to explain the courses of our dinners and breakfasts, as well as information about the town. The hotel was slightly out of town (15mins walk) but they have a shuttle that was basically on demand. We wanted to go into town for the night and they dropped and picked us up at our desired time. The property is also tucked at the base of a mountain which made for a beautiful location. Overall a relaxing stay and a highlight of my 3 week trip around Japan. "

"I had a very comfortable stay here and would love to stay again! The staff were so hospitable, making check-in very easy and care-free. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable, with all the amenities required for a short stay. There were blackout blinds to make the room completely dark at night, and the sound insulation seemed very good as I couldn’t hear anything from the neighbouring rooms. The location is perfect, a short walk to all rhe onsens and the train station. I would fully recommend staying here for anyone looking for a relaxing experience! "

"Very worth it to stay in this ryokan! Upon arriving at the kinosakionsen station, free shuttles were available to drop you off at your ryokan or hotels. The ryokan was modernized but still had the traditional japanese cultural vibes. The front desk staff and welcoming committee were great as well. It was raining and I accidentally forgot to order dinner so my husband and I had to go out, and the town was 10 minutes away if you walk it out and they had shuttles available to drop us off between 4 to 10p and that includes pick up, just give them a call with their whatsapp line. The breakfast and dinner were keiseki meal and were very fresh and worth it. The onsen was also amazing!"

"The place is wonderful and the staff are so friendly! We loved our time there and the onsen was great!"

"This was the splurge stay on our honeymoon, and it was worth every last yen. The amenities, food, everything was perfect, and the staff were so helpful, kind, and accomodating. I will personally be recommending this property to everyone who will listen."

"Amazing spa and amenities"

"This was the perfect place to stay for a first time visit to a Japanese Onsen town. Excellent location on the river within walking distance of all the included spas, many shops and places to eat. Recommendation from a staff member for great food/good value in 2 blocks. We definitely had our favorites eateries and Onsen, but the whole experience was just lovely and Ichidaya made it so. Most staff very pleasant, helpful and patient with our non-existent Japanese. The room in front was spacious, overlooking the river, and had all the amenities we needed to visit the spas in style. Only negatives were us mobility challenged seniors not getting access to the room before 3 PM after 3 flights in 24 hours. They were insistent on that, though they did keep bags for us until check-in. Also the slick steep wooden stairs were a challenge and we would’ve preferred a first floor room. But we managed taking care to use the railing, move slowly & get help with luggage. No complaints on the room itself -comfy twin beds, big picture windows and a heated toilet seat with bidet. Everything very clean. Didn’t opt for meals there, but they smelled delicious cooking. Lots of restaurants and shops within five minutes and the view from the ancient stone bridges down the river with the weeping willows was just gorgeous. About the town, easy walking around, 12 minutes to ropeway or train station, all onsens closer but we couldn’t find breakfast before 9am or dinner after 6pm on Saturday. Hmm."

"I couldn’t have asked for a better staff. They were so nice and patient with my travel group of ten. They took in our luggage early and had them in our rooms at check-in time. They provided a bus to Kinosaki throughout the day. Kadue was spectacular and her English was good. The views were amazing throughout the entire stay! Views of the water from the moment you walk in, with a viewing area on every single floor, and in the rooms the views were spectacular. The rooms and bathroom areas were really clean and spacious. Snacks and a tea set was provided. The artwork throughout the property was beautiful and serine, and the layout of the property itself was gorgeous. The food was delicious! 1) The Walrus Cafe is a mix of pizza, pastas and Japanese food at decent prices. There are a plethora of games to choose from. They also have free coffee. We ate there twice in our two night stay. 2) Breakfast buffet was delicious and with a lot of variety 3) Ramen/ Japanese restaurant was good too! We had appetizers here and the food was fresh and yummy 4) You need reservations for Japanese dinner; we didn’t have one The onsen was amazing!!! Clean, offered quality supplies needed, and had outside and inside options. It was my first onsen experience and I am grateful I started here. My family wanted massages and our staff helped book them and for a reasonable cost too. The masseuse went to the rooms, which was very convenient. They also have massage chairs on the first floor at no cost."

"The rooms are spacious and have a pretty view of the river though do not opt for the cot if you cannot get a triple Buffet is generous but does not change so recommend not prebooking food if staying more than one night. For breakfast and dinner it’s decent but to gets repetitious. Walkable to town but not central. Does have limited shuttle service. "
