Ito Yukitei
9,0/10 Exceptional - Based on 94 reviews
Wrapped in the soothing gentleness of Itō’s nature, the ryokan unfolds like a sanctuary where serenity and refinement harmoniously blend. Outdoor onsen baths, inspired by local thermal waters, invite guests to a rejuvenating experience, while the windows reveal landscapes of contemplative purity, between river and serene garden. An intimate bar and relaxation spaces bathed in soft light extend this sensory immersion.
Intimacy and warmth characterize the rooms, carefully designed in a subtle blend of natural wood and modern touches. Whether in a traditional tatami-floored room or a suite with a private bath, each space embodies a promise of tranquility. Large bay windows let in the beauty of Itō, enhancing the experience of a unique stay in this ryokan in Itō.
For culinary discovery enthusiasts, two enchanting restaurants are offered: the first celebrates Japanese flavors in a refined ambiance, while the second boldly marries French cuisine with more contemporary creations. Nearby, cozy cafes and small local establishments complete this sensory adventure, awakening the palate at every moment.
