Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
5/10 Offering a pleasant experience but distant from the strict codes of traditional ryokans, the establishment combines modernity and Japanese details. The baths captivate with their view but sometimes lack authenticity. The cuisine is varied but lacks the elegance of kaiseki. The well-appointed rooms mix Japanese heritage with contemporary influences.
