Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
6/10 Faithful to Japanese tradition, this ryokan features spacious and pleasant baths but lacks striking authentic touches. The culinary experience, although varied, seems rather modern and westernized. The architecture and decoration reveal a mix of styles, offering pleasant comfort without fully immersing in classic Japanese culture.
