Japanese Authenticity Rating
6/10 Immersive but slightly modernized, this ryokan mixes semi-traditional architecture with rooms featuring tatami mats and futons, while offering a pleasant setting. The meals, although varied, do not always seem to refine the Kaiseki experience. A nice experience thanks to its onsen overlooking natural landscapes despite their relative simplicity.
