Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity

8/10 The rooms harmoniously combine tatamis and modern furniture, while the carefully prepared meals highlight Japanese culinary traditions. The ryokan offers welcoming onsen baths with views, although incorporating a degree of modernity. The overall traditional architecture, however, lacks some authentic touches that would enrich the experience.
