  • Kaiseki Course Featuring Spiny Lobster and Jinseki Beef

    This is a wonderful Accommodation. We truly felt the kindness in your hospitality. The meals were lavish and absolutely delicious. The quality, portion size, and flavor were so exceptional that we almost felt guilty enjoying them at this price. Breakfast was also very satisfying, and the fluffy rolled omelet was truly impressive. When we mentioned that we would be staying to celebrate my mother’s 88th birthday, you served sekihan (red bean rice), which deeply moved her. This time, since the bath was under renovation, we went to a nearby Facility to bathe; once the bath is completed, I’m sure this will become an even more outstanding Accommodation. If we have the chance, we would definitely love to stay again.To everyone at Yohkosou, I know you are very busy—please take good care of yourselves. Thank you very much for all your help and hospitality.

  • We had a wonderful time on our family trip.

    We stayed at this Accommodation during our family trip to Hiroshima and Shimane over the Obon holidays.The Room had a wonderful Showa-retro atmosphere—nostalgic, calming, and very charming. Everything was thoroughly cleaned, and we were able to relax in great comfort.The bath was under renovation during our stay, but the staff kindly provided a Shuttle Service to a nearby Facility, so we were able to use it without any inconvenience. We truly appreciated their thoughtfulness.Above all, the meals were outstanding! Both dinner and breakfast were generous in portion size, and the Jinseki beef was absolutely superb. The fluffy rolled omelet at breakfast was also delicious—our whole family couldn’t stop saying how good it was.We were also told that there are salamanders in front of the Accommodation, so we went to take a look. One even came close as if it had come out to meet us, which delighted our entire family. It became one of our favorite memories from the trip.Thanks to the lovely Room, delicious food, and the warm hospitality of all the staff, we had a wonderful time together as a family.We would love to stay again when we travel to the Hiroshima area.Thank you very much for such a wonderful stay.
