Japanese Authenticity Rating
6/10 Beautiful ryokan blending traditional and modern elements, with tatami, lovely views, and a peaceful ambiance. The baths are satisfactory but lack a bit of unique charm. The cuisine is decent but without real kaiseki excellence. The decoration mixes authentic and contemporary with a slight Western influence.
