Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
7/10 Pretty ryokan offering a pleasant experience with beautiful onsens, well-worked seasonal cuisine, and a well-maintained ambiance. Although the architecture combines modern touches, the whole respects a certain Japanese authenticity. The rooms and common areas, however, reveal some simple elements lacking total immersion.
