It was another comfortable stay. We apologize for the trouble caused by my friend’s forgotten item, and we truly appreciate your kind and attentive support. The breakfast we were looking forward to was exactly as expected—both the fresh juice and the rice were delicious. We enjoyed a hearty meal with an extra serving of rice before heading out sightseeing. We also appreciated the quiet atmosphere, as well as the lounge in the evening and the coffee service in the morning. In Kyoto we end up walking a lot, so it was wonderful to relax in the spacious bathtub to ease our tiredness, then unwind and chat in the lounge. This is a Hotel in Gion with great access for getting around on foot. We will visit again.

I visited again to enjoy the sauna. As always, this pension is very comfortable. The dog-friendly Room is spacious and cozy. The sukiyaki with horse meat for dinner was delicious, with tender meat. I had a delightful conversation with a couple from Niigata during the meal. Hearing about their efforts until the smelt fishing season opens made me appreciate being able to enjoy safe and fun smelt fishing. I plan to visit again at the end of the year and next year for smelt fishing!

Thank you for taking care of us for two days. Both dinner and breakfast looked wonderful and tasted amazing. We could really feel the care put into each dish. The Room was clean, and we were able to relax in the private rock bath. The staff were kind—this Accommodation deserves five stars in every way. We would love to stay again.

Four close grandma friends stayed here together. The staff were attentive while keeping a comfortable distance, which made our stay very pleasant. The meals were just right in both quality and portion size. For breakfast, the sashimi we couldn’t finish at dinner was served as marinated fish, and there was also fish with a savory sauce; we took our time and enjoyed every bite. The hostess’s stage performance was fun as well—this is an Accommodation we’d love to visit again and again.

It was a wonderful Ryokan with a rich sense of history and charm. Everything was well explained and carefully maintained, and the private Onsen was excellent. I would definitely like to stay again if I have the chance. Thank you very much.

I’ve stayed here twice, and I was satisfied both times. The place is very clean, and the amenities and appliances provided—along with the hand soap and diffuser—are all modern and stylish. I liked them so much that I use similar items at home now. I’ll definitely stay here again when I visit Hiroshima.

This is our fourth summer stay, and Hakuba Mountainside never disappoints no matter how many times we visit. The Facility is always kept clean and comfortable, and the front desk and housekeeping staff are polite and friendly, making every stay truly pleasant. The kitchen is also very well equipped, with plenty of cookware for anyone who wants to enjoy serious home cooking. Our summer holiday starts with waking up to birdsong in the morning. We then enjoy a walk, followed by a leisurely lunch with fresh local vegetables and naturally leavened bread. In the afternoon we take a nap, and in the evening we head to Happo-no-Yu, famous for its highly alkaline waters. Soaking slowly while taking in the view from the open-air bath is pure bliss. At night we go to bed early with a book—this luxurious, peaceful day is something we repeat every year. And by the end of our trip—perhaps thanks to Happo-no-Yu—our skin feels wonderfully smooth and makeup goes on surprisingly well, which has become one of our annual pleasures too.

This is our family’s favorite vacation rental. The owner is kind and attentive, and sharing local tips is always a big help. The Room and bathroom are spacious and well maintained, so we can relax and enjoy our stay. Even my elderly mother feels comfortable traveling here, so we stay at Shirakaba Terrace every year in early summer and autumn. We bring our two dogs each time as well; they’re used to it now, spending time freely in the garden dog run and sleeping soundly at night. We’d love to visit again in autumn to see the fall foliage.

This is my second visit. (In my previous Review, I mistakenly called it a Business Hotel, but it’s actually a lifestyle hotel. My apologies!) I think it’s a wonderful Hotel for close mother-and-daughter trips, girlfriends traveling together, or even solo stays. The location is also very convenient—right by Marutamachi Station near the Kyoto Imperial Palace. The bathroom area is clean and easy to use, and I really enjoyed soaking in the large bathtub with the lighting dimmed. In the spacious, quiet lounge, you can enjoy carefully selected books while sipping detox water or tea. I’d love to come back again just for this lounge. With reasonable prices, it’s easy to use for many purposes—Multiple Night Stay as a sightseeing base or a quiet reading getaway—so I especially recommend this Hotel for women travelers.

The staff’s hospitality was wonderful, and the dinner was truly delicious, allowing us to fully enjoy our time at the Hotel. Thank you very much. We would definitely like to visit again.

The property was wonderful, with the hostess and all the staff being attentive and considerate. We are truly grateful for accommodating our unreasonable requests. The room and hallway were well-maintained, and the garden exuded a dignified beauty. Thank you for taking care of us.

As the first trip to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, we stayed at Arayashiki in Oki. We were able to relax as if we were at home, including enjoying the garden with a sky full of stars and a campfire. The meals reflected a deep respect for nature and made us feel, “This is what doing things right looks like.” The nature on Dogo Island was wonderful, but as someone who loves spectacular views, I’m glad we made the effort to visit Matengai Cliff in Dozen. If the timing works out, I’d love for our children to experience this too.

This was my first visit, and the food was delicious. I also appreciated being able to take home the crab I couldn’t finish. The Onsen water felt wonderfully smooth, and we were very satisfied to have it reserved for our family’s private use. The location was also great—right by the sea, with a beautiful sunset—and it made me want to visit even in a season other than crab season. I’d love to come back again next year.

We were refreshed by nature, cool air, and delicious meals.

From parking to departure, the hospitality was attentive throughout, and I had a wonderful stay. Thank you for preparing everything so thoughtfully. I would love to stay again.

A cozy, home-like Accommodation that feels like returning to a countryside house. The renovated Room was clean and relaxing. The homemade breakfast was delicious as well. It’s an Accommodation I’d love to stay at again.

Less than a 20-minute drive from Uwajima Station, the property is set in a lush green valley with wonderfully clear air. The calm, attentive staff handle everything from reception to table service. Meals feature creative dishes made with locally sourced ingredients, beautifully presented and just the right amount for someone with a small appetite like me. For drinks, you can enjoy an affordable three-glass tasting set of both wine and sake. The Onsen was quite hot, so I couldn’t soak for long (laugh). It was also a bit disappointing that early-morning bathing wasn’t available.

The rooms are spacious, and the decor and furniture are tasteful, making it a very relaxing Hotel. Many of the staff members are from overseas, but they are extremely kind, attentive, and pleasant. Even those who aren't fluent in Japanese make an effort to communicate warmly. The Hotel's cozy size gives it a charming atmosphere that feels like being in a small town abroad. It was an enjoyable experience. The food is delicious but lacks delicacy; its dynamic style adds to the international vibe and makes it even more fun. I would love to stay here again!

Clean and Beautiful Beach House The spacious pool was incredibly refreshing, and the bath was absolutely amazing. Equipped with modern appliances like a drum washing machine, Balmuda toaster, and Healsio oven, ensuring a comfortable stay. Kids will love the toy kitchen and tunnel for endless fun. We’ll definitely come back again!

The facilities and amenities were excellent.
