Established during the Edo and Ansei eras, this historic Ryokan showcases the rich history and tradition of Kinosaki Onsen.
Kinosaki Onsen, with a history of 1300 years since its opening. The willow-lined Otani River flows through the center of the town, accompanied by stone bridges. In the heart of this charming Onsen town lies Nishimuraya Honkan. Passing through the grand traditional gate, you are greeted by the faint aroma of incense. The 34 Rooms face the garden, showcasing the serene beauty of Japanese-style aesthetics. In addition to the private bathrooms in each Room, there are large communal baths and open-air baths, each with unique designs, including the Azumaya-style "Yoshinoyu" nestled in a bamboo grove and the Chinese pavement-style "Fukunoyu." The soft texture of the weak saline Onsen water will wash away your fatigue. The warm hospitality, carrying on 160 years of history and tradition, continues to captivate visitors.
We visited during Golden Week for a birthday trip.From the warm welcome to the lounge, Room, baths, and meals, everything throughout our stay was wonderful and made it a truly unforgettable trip.The view from the Room was beautiful, and we were able to spend a relaxing, luxurious time.Every dish was genuinely delicious; even though the portions were generous, it was so good that I finished everything for the first time.All of the staff were consistently kind and attentive, which made our entire stay very comfortable.We also went to an outside bath, but it was quite crowded—so much so that we felt completely satisfied with just the Ryokan’s baths.In particular, the in-Room bath had perfect temperature and excellent water quality, and it was incredibly soothing.I’ve been traveling about once every two months for many years, but this is the first Ryokan that truly made me think, “I definitely want to come back.”Next time, I’d love to visit during crab season.Thank you very much for such a wonderful time.
