Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 While the ryokan features charming traditional spaces with tatami mats and futons, and offers enjoyable baths, some modern elements lessen the authenticity. The culinary diversity seems rich but lacks the refinement of refined kaiseki. Overall, a pleasant experience but slightly influenced by contemporary touches.
