Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Close to a modern ryokan, the place offers rooms with some traditional elements but also contemporary influences. The baths provide a pleasant experience with some typical features. The cuisine seems well-prepared but not entirely typical of a kaiseki. The overall ambiance remains pleasant, though slightly Westernized.
