<div class="descriptionhotel"><p>Immersed in the lush nature of Saku in Nagano Prefecture, Kasuga no Mori is a haven of tranquility and rejuvenation. The murmur of the waters of the open-air hot springs, combined with the soothing warmth of the indoor baths, offers a true sanctuary for the soul and body. Here, everything is designed for serenity: from the spa equipped with a sauna and an onsen bath, to the comfort of the common lounge where time seems to stand still.

<h2 class="titreeval" style="color: var(--primary-color);font-size: 20px">Japanese Authenticity Evaluation</h2>
<span class="noteauth"><b>7.5/10</b></span> <span>Perfectly integrated into nature, this ryokan blends tradition with modern touches. The natural onsen offers unique relaxation moments, and the rooms with tatami mats open onto soothing views. The cuisine is of quality, though slightly less elaborate than a traditional Kaiseki. A beautiful Japanese immersion.</span>
