Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
6/10 Neither entirely traditional nor too modern, this ryokan blends authenticity with contemporary touches. The baths offer pleasing views but lack typical elements like a natural onsen. The meals, while well-prepared, do not reveal a complete kaiseki experience. The rooms vary, some adopting more of a Western style than a purely Japanese charm.
