I stayed here in Nov 2024 and Jun 2025. This property is so beautiful. There is long term construction right next to the property so there is noise during the day. Everything was perfect to have a relaxing time.

It was a one of the nicest ryokan I've ever been. The meals were perfect. The most beatiful thing was the main open sky bath. I wanna go there in next year too.

The staff are very warm and welcoming, they always show up and take care of their customers in small details. There are 7 onsens (including one in my house), my house was a traditional one and I love itbso much, food was super delicious with local ingredients, everything was good and was a great experience.
