Japanese Authenticity Rating
7/10 Many traditional elements are well integrated into the rooms and the overall environment. The culinary experience seems well-crafted with local touches, but not entirely exceptional. The onsens offer a good alternative, although they lack natural charm. A successful balance between Japanese authenticity and modern comfort.
