Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
7/10 Low tables, tatamis, and shōji windows create a serene atmosphere, though a touch of modernity in places diminishes the immersion. Meals offer beautiful traditional presentation. However, the bath lacks immersive character. Overall, it provides a pleasant Japanese experience but somewhat contemporary.
