Japanese Authenticity Rating
7/10 Sumptuous and luminous, this ryokan harmoniously combines tradition and modernity. The light-filled spaces offer a beautiful view, and the elegant rooms incorporate classic Japanese elements without excluding some contemporary touches. However, the cuisine and baths, while pleasant, lack a distinctive authentic Japanese character.
