Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
8/10 Authentic and charming, this ryokan harmoniously combines traditional architecture with subtle modern touches. The rooms are welcoming with tatami, futons, and elegant decor, while the refined meals celebrate Japanese cuisine. The baths, though decent, lack special character. An immersive and relaxing experience.
