Rurikoh

8,4/10 Excellent - Based on 529 reviews

Bathe in the mystical atmosphere of Rurikoh, this ryokan in Kaga, where tradition and serenity blend into a haven of well-being. Between the thermal baths, open at all hours, and the delicacy of outdoor foot baths, every moment here seems suspended in time. The gentle scent of wood, the soothing glow of lanterns, and the murmur of the surrounding garden invite a deep reconnection with oneself. In addition to these benefits, massages are available to prolong this state of absolute harmony.

Awaken your senses in rooms imbued with traditional Japanese aesthetics, where the tatami floor and futons envelop you in timeless charm. Each accommodation, whether standard or luxurious with a private bath, reveals a tranquility conducive to perfect rest, with a modern touch thanks to a television and free Wi-Fi. The view of the surrounding gardens or mountains enhances this total immersion in nature, characteristic of a stay in an authentic ryokan in Kaga.

Open your taste buds to the local and international flavors offered in the two on-site restaurants, where each dish celebrates the balance of tastes and the energy of seasonal ingredients. Whether you opt for refined French cuisine or a traditional Japanese menu, the culinary experience is meant to be as visual as it is gastronomic. For special occasions or exploration desires, nearby restaurants welcome you with the same generosity of flavors and hospitality.
