I stayed here because it was close to my workplace. The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of options and was delicious.

The area around the Hotel is quiet, allowing for a relaxing and comfortable stay. There are two convenience stores nearby, making it very convenient. I will use this place again when visiting Kimitsu. Thank you!

The milk was mild, and the wakame seaweed in the miso soup was also tender.

As the name suggests, the entire building has a blue theme, making it easy to spot—I really appreciated being able to find it quickly without getting lost. The amenities were well stocked, and the loungewear was comfortable, so I had a very relaxing stay. Breakfast was also delicious. It was the best Accommodation for my trip to Nagoya!

We have stayed with our dog at many luxury hotels in Japan and abroad, and this was honestly one of the very best—easily competing for No.1 or No.2. If I were to compare it overseas, it’s hard to say which is better: this or the Manor at Capella Singapore. It was a truly outstanding detached villa suite that stands shoulder to shoulder with the world’s top luxury hotels. We stayed for two nights from 9/20 with three family members and our dog. Because a typhoon was approaching, we arrived early, but the staff handled everything politely and smoothly and kindly escorted us to our room about two hours earlier than usual. Before our stay, I read every review on Ikkyu, and it felt like many of the past concerns had been addressed. I was also impressed by how sincerely you seem to take guest feedback. Since this two-night stay cost around JPY 1,000,000, I was slightly worried about whether it would truly feel worth the price—but the sense of exclusivity in the detached villa (No.100) exceeded all expectations. A dedicated parking space, an approximately 300 m² private dog run, a two-story/two-bedroom layout, in-room dining available only for this villa, complimentary champagne and drinks in the refrigerator, private dining rooms when using the restaurant—every detail felt thoughtfully elevated in a way that made perfect sense. The meals were especially exceptional—clearly a step above any hotel we’ve stayed at before. The matsutake course and clay-pot rice were superb, and on our second night you prepared an entirely different menu from the first. To truly experience RETONA at its best (ideally in this villa suite), I strongly recommend staying at least two nights. (I’m sure other rooms are wonderful as well.) It became an unforgettable three days worthy of my daughter’s 12th birthday and our dog’s 6th birthday. We are deeply grateful to all staff members for your warm hospitality—including your attentive email communication even before arrival. If I may mention just one small point: there was a spider web on the ceiling above the sink area. We fully understand that insects are common given the natural surroundings—and it was minor enough for us to remove ourselves—but checking higher areas as well would make everything even more perfect. Next time we will definitely return as a family to stay in the same room again—perhaps in spring or summer—to enjoy seasonal dishes in another time of year. This has become one of my favorite luxury hotels; thank you very much for everything.

I was able to stay one night at a discounted rate with a Reservation made one month in advance. (I stayed on the first day of the Nagano Tomyo Festival. I thought it might be hard to book, but since I applied early, I was able to make a Reservation.) It has great access from Nagano Station, the room was clean, and I was very satisfied with the wide selection of amenities. I didn’t notice any noise from the city or inside the Hotel at all. The staff were always smiling and helpful, so even as a woman staying alone, I felt safe. I really appreciated the variety of tea bags and that there were two types of bath salts. Thank you very much for your hospitality. When staying in Nagano again, I would definitely like to use this Accommodation again.

This time, we stayed here for a trip from Itsukushima Shrine to Matsuyama the next day by Super Jet, including Dogo Onsen, and it was very convenient. Both dinner and breakfast were excellent.

Although No Meals Included, the Room was clean, and the bathtub was relatively spacious, so it felt comfortable without being cramped. Even though it is located in front of the station, parking was reasonably priced at 500 yen. The bed was comfortable, and I fell asleep before I knew it. I would like to stay here again.

It’s rare to find accommodation in Nagano Prefecture at this price on a weekend. Since it was Sunday morning, the breakfast area was crowded, but depending on the time, you should be able to eat without any issues. I was worried about the bunk bed, but once I fell asleep, it wasn’t a problem at all.

We visited with 11 people from 4 families to celebrate the owner's birthday. After visiting Honpukuji Temple by Ando architecture and being impressed by its magnificence, we entered the Hotel with high expectations. Our expectations were not disappointed, as we could feel the art museums and Hotels of Naoshima throughout the building, which made us feel nostalgic and happy. I was particularly impressed by how pleasant the person in charge during meals was. Thank you very much.

The service was courteous, and the meals were excellent. I especially enjoyed the simple yet Western-style pot-au-feu and would love to have it again. The bath was also very good (I soaked four times). As someone who usually stays at Business Hotels, this reminded me how great an Onsen Accommodation can be.

The Hotel felt clean, and the staff were very helpful, so overall I had a comfortable stay. The bathroom ventilation was strong, and there was none of the unpleasant odor that can be common at other hotels. One concern was that the bidet nozzle in the Room looked discolored. When the large public bath was crowded, there were not enough washing stations or lockers in the changing area (it felt cramped), and some guests were waiting while undressed.

This time, I came to Fukushima Prefecture to support my son at his tournament. My mom friends and I each booked our own Room, and after returning to the Hotel we were able to spend our time freely—taking a bath, resting, and relaxing in our own way. Since my Room was on the 6th floor, I could enjoy an open view of the surrounding area from the window, which was wonderful. The best part was the breakfast buffet in the Hotel. There were so many delicious dishes that I ended up eating far more than I usually can in the morning. Because it was a Multiple Night Stay, looking forward to breakfast each day became one of my favorite parts of the trip. My only regret is that after enjoying the games and going out for drinks with my mom friends every night, I was so tired that I used the unit bath in my Room and didn’t get to use the Onsen even once. I had stayed at Route Inn Hotel in Kyoto over 20 years ago and had a great impression back then as well, so I booked this stay with high expectations—and it was even more relaxing and satisfying than I hoped!

The Room was assigned at the property’s discretion, but it was a perfectly nice Room. I felt very satisfied for such a reasonable price. They walked around serving freshly grilled food, and they also took a family photo for us at the table. There was a manga corner, so we enjoyed ourselves without getting bored.

I originally had a Reservation at another Hotel, but after seeing this one on YouTube and hearing the food was great, I changed to this Hotel. There were plenty of amenities in front of the front desk, and they even provided baskets to carry them—an excellent service. They also offer free drinks and have a water dispenser. The women-only floor made me feel safe and comfortable during my stay. I was very satisfied with the breakfast I had been looking forward to; the vegetables were truly delicious. I wanted to try the curry too, but I was too full, which was a shame. This is a Hotel I’d like to visit again.

Okazaki Station is a small station, so the Hotel felt truly close after getting off the train on the platform. Convenience stores and a dining area are also just nearby. Very convenient. Check-in and check-out were both smooth. Amenities are provided in the lobby for you to pick up what you need and take to your Room. I appreciated that they had toner and cleansing products available. The key was a traditional metal key rather than a card key. The Room had some slightly dated parts, but the unit bath was new and pleasant. There was an outlet by the bedside. The air conditioner was positioned so it wouldn’t blow directly on your face while sleeping. Overall, I had no complaints. Great value for money and very satisfying stay.

I’m a repeat guest. The location is great, and it’s excellent value to get a solid breakfast at this price. The Room is also comfortable and easy to spend time in.

This was our third stay, and every time our whole family is impressed by how delicious the meals are. This time we chose the sushi kaiseki dinner, and we were already fully satisfied even before the sushi was served. The sushi itself—uni, conger eel, tuna, aori squid, sea bream, and more—was all excellent. As this is a long-established ryokan, the facilities and equipment do feel a bit dated, but every staff member provides outstanding service. It’s a ryokan we truly want to stay at again. We look forward to visiting again on our next stay.

The mixed rice and homemade tofu were delicious. There was also a wide variety of dishes. It was quite crowded at 6:30, but it didn’t seem as busy at 7:00. We could see the sunset perfectly from the room, and it was beautiful.

The breakfast was delicious, and I had seconds. The coffee by the entrance was also very good. When I woke up early to get some, it was still being prepared, which was a bit disappointing.
