Nationwide × Highly rated for dining at Hotel·Ryokan - 49Page Number

Although it’s a day-use stay, you can stay for a long time, so the price is about the same as an internet café, but it’s far more relaxing. It’s clean and quiet. The front desk can get crowded when check-in times overlap, but the Room is quiet and comfortable with calm interior decor. I will use it again when I need to focus on studying or working. Thank you very much.

We decided to stay based on the Reviews, and it was an even more wonderful Accommodation than we expected. The bath in our Room was so great that we never ended up going to the large public bath. The meals were excellent in both presentation and taste, and we were able to fully enjoy autumn. Personally, it was my first time trying chestnut chips, and they were delicious. Since we dined in a private room, it was also helpful that we could set the room temperature to our liking. All of the staff were kind, and we had a very pleasant stay. We’re looking forward to staying again someday.

The sunset was breathtaking and truly moving. The food was delicious, and I was amazed by the variety of sashimi. It was a shame that the sea couldn’t be seen from the bath, but all of the staff were kind, and I really appreciated it.

Everything exceeded our expectations in every way. The Room was spacious, spotless, and very well maintained. Every staff member was friendly and provided warm, welcoming service. The meals were delicious, and the private Onsen allowed us to relax at our own pace—it was perfect. We would love to visit again in a different season.

I was looking for a highly rated Onsen Ryokan to stay at in Okayama, so I chose this one. It was a great choice. The meals were exactly as described—quality over quantity—and the portions were perfect for older guests. It’s also an all-inclusive property, so I enjoyed a variety of drinks and snacks; the doburoku in particular was excellent. I don’t recall drinking it much before, but it went down smoothly, and next time I think I’ll stick with doburoku after my beer. I’m glad I stayed here.

I stayed here with a friend. The building is old and compact, but it was clean and well maintained, and we were very satisfied with the delicious meals and silky hot spring baths. The porcini ravioli served at dinner was so good we wished we could have had seconds. I think this is a highly satisfying place for adults to relax and unwind. It’s a bit of a walk for sightseeing, but it was nice to take a leisurely stroll before dinner.

This was my first stay at this Hotel, which offers the special opportunity to take part in Eiheiji’s zazen meditation and morning service. I was deeply moved by the cleansing, uplifting experience. In the stillness of early morning at Eiheiji, the crisp air filled the temple grounds; seeing so many trainee monks perform their service with such care, and the beauty of moss illuminated by the morning sun—these were all sights you can only experience because you are there so early, and because you stay overnight. I’m truly glad I came. The meals were also wonderful; even without meat or fish, I was completely satisfied by how delicious the vegetables were. The Room and bath were clean and well maintained, everything was spotless, and everyone at the Accommodation greeted us with warm smiles and attentive service—making this a trip I will never forget.

I feel this every time: it’s conveniently located in the Tama area, close to Shinjuku, and it also makes driving home to Kanagawa smooth and easy. Richmond has truly taken great care of me. This time in particular, a female staff member at the front desk kindly explained how to use Points in a clear and easy-to-understand way. I was very happy. The double Room I’ve been using recently was also clean, and I had a comfortable stay. I also appreciated the free drinking water and hot water service in the hallway—I enjoyed tea and coffee. In addition, having covered parking where you don’t get wet even when it rains, with an elevator nearby, is a real plus for guests. I look forward to staying with you again.

We used this Hotel for a family trip. It’s about a 10-minute walk from Fukui Station, which is a convenient distance. The Onsen on the top floor had soft water and helped relieve our fatigue. The complimentary after-bath ice cream service was also nice. The twin Room is of standard size, but I would have liked a luggage rack for our suitcase. The Japanese breakfast selection was extensive, and overall satisfaction was very high. I was happy they also had melon. Personally, I wish there were a few more types of bread. Among Dormy Inn properties, this Hotel feels like an upper-class option, and I thought it offered excellent value for money.

Due to the heavy rain, the Himi Line was suspended and I was stranded in Takaoka. You contacted me to let me know I could come by bus, and you even picked me up at the bus stop, which was a great help. The Room was clean, and I thoroughly enjoyed the fish dishes. I would like to visit again.

Although our room did not have an ocean view, the all-inclusive plan and the kind staff made our stay wonderful. This hotel has everything you could want—breakfast, dinner, snacks, and drinks—so you’ll never go without. If I lived nearby, I’d treat myself to a stay here every month.

We had a very comfortable stay. They also looked after our dog, and we were able to attend a concert—it was perfect. Thank you very much.

I always feel that this is a very simple and functional Hotel. It’s close to the station, there’s a convenience store on the way from the station, and it also has a bathroom, so it’s very good.

The staff’s hospitality, the cleanliness of the Room, the delicious meals, and the large public bath—everything was wonderful, and we had a truly lovely time. They even lent us towels and parasols for going to the outside baths, and we really appreciated their thoughtful attention to every detail. I had always wanted to try “tap” mandarin orange juice, but I never expected to experience it at a Hotel—what a delightful surprise. Every dish in the kaiseki dinner was delicious. The breakfast buffet offered a great variety of items, all of them tasty, and our child was thrilled and ate plenty as well. If we have another chance to stay in Dogo Onsen, we would definitely like to stay here again! Thank you very much for such a wonderful time.

This was our first stay as a parent and child. The Room was very clean, and it was the perfect environment to enjoy the Onsen anytime. The meals were carefully prepared and truly delicious. Even after checkout, we were impressed by the attentive hospitality, including Shuttle Service to the Rokko Mountain ropeway. We would love to stay again.

The hospitality was outstanding. I make sure to stay here at least once every year. Next time, I plan to stay for two nights.

I don’t usually post Reviews, but I was so impressed that I had to share. I’ve stayed at many Hotels in this price range, but this was the first time the meals were this outstanding. The table was set for what looked like eight people even though it was supposed to be for four, so I assumed we’d be sharing—then it turned out it was all for just four! It was luxurious and delicious, and I was amazed. The staff’s service was also excellent: when our drinks ran low, they brought refills right away without us having to ask, and when I started thinking I’d like some rice, they asked if we’d like more. Their attention to detail was exceptional, and as someone who usually works on the service side, it felt like pure bliss. The baths were great as well—one open-air bath was especially spacious—and the Room was large, clean, and very comfortable. The only thing that bothered me a little was that I couldn’t adjust the air conditioner properly during the night; otherwise everything was perfect.

I think this is a very satisfying Accommodation. Although it is not an Accommodation within Kamikochi, if you are trekking from Taisho Pond to Kappa Bridge, I would recommend this Accommodation even more. We were able to park until 3:00 PM the next day, and it was also possible to use the Onsen for a day trip after the trek. The staff’s smiles were delightful, and it was a wonderful, relaxing Accommodation.

Obuse, the town of Hokusai and chestnuts, is known for its beautiful streetscape that feels almost like a theme park. We arrived a little early by car, so we visited Gansho-in Temple and Jokoji Temple before heading to Masuichi Kyakuden. The ceiling painting at Gansho-in—Katsushika Hokusai’s “Phoenix Glancing in All Directions”—was truly breathtaking. As soon as we pulled up in front of Masuichi Kyakuden, a staff member came right out and efficiently carried our luggage inside. The highly sought-after “Chestnut Dessert Suzaku,” which is notoriously difficult to secure, will be offered from 9/10 this year. Because guests staying at Masuichi Kyakuden receive priority guaranteed access, it becomes even harder to make an Accommodation Reservation for stays from 9/10 onward. Since our stay was before then, making a Reservation was easy. Stepping inside Masuichi Kyakuden, you’re immediately enveloped by the stately atmosphere of the kura storehouse building. Our Room was on the second floor; we chose the Relax Twin style. Despite being in a kura-style structure, it also has a terrace, with plenty of natural light and an open feel. There are also more traditional, calmer kura-style Rooms available; however, we were told they are designed with high ceilings to avoid any sense of confinement. Designed by architect John Morford, the Room is fully Western-style with extensive use of stainless steel—its glass-and-stainless bath is well worth seeing. Amenities are L’Occitane; the refrigerator includes complimentary drinks; plus coffee and tea—everything you’d expect from a high-end Ryokan-style stay is provided, making the Room very comfortable. For dinner, we walked about three minutes to Obusedo Honten (part of the same Masuichi group). Every dish showcased the head chef’s experience and refined sensibility. The soup course, simmered dishes, and grilled items had a Kyoto kaiseki influence—above all else, the dashi was exceptional. The sashimi was fresh and perfectly seasoned as well. Local ingredients were used throughout for very high satisfaction overall. One note: the first items served—lightly dressed Kurakake beans and Matsumae-zuke—are not part of the course menu itself (just so you know). They’re clearly intended as snacks with alcohol—especially sake brewed by Masuichi Ichimura Sake Brewery within the same group—and both paired beautifully with their sake: firm Kurakake beans soaked in elegant dashi alongside Matsumae-zuke packed with rich seafood umami made each sip even better than before. In autumn Obuse becomes all about chestnuts; while we couldn’t try “Chestnut Dessert Suzaku,” we did get to enjoy “Mont Blanc Suzaku,” a Western-inspired take on Suzaku. It’s available at their affiliated shop “Entotsu.” We nearly gave up due to long lines but learned that overnight guests can make Reservations—so we were able to enjoy it without waiting. If you stay at Masuichi Kyakuden, be sure to indulge in one of their “Suzaku”-style chestnut sweets if you can. Overall it was an outstanding stay—we thoroughly enjoyed Obuse from start to finish.

The Facility and Room were stylish, impeccably clean, and incredibly relaxing. The tea and snacks prepared at check-in were also chic and instantly lifted my mood. All the in-room amenities, as well as the sweets, coffee, and other refreshments provided, felt carefully selected. Dinner was far better than I had imagined—delicious, of course, and beautifully presented for the eyes as well. I requested a mixed pairing of sake and wine, which turned out to be exactly right; even though my appetite had been down from summer fatigue, both the drinks and the food went down easily. I also heard that even the seasonings are handmade, and my overall satisfaction was higher than at an auberge—maybe it is an auberge? The garden view was lovely too; with wonderful food and drinks plus attentive service, it became an unforgettable night. All of the staff were courteous yet friendly—I’d love to see them again. I’d like to visit again in a different season.
