Nationwide × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan for Onsen and bath - 262Page Number

I’m happy I could choose a smoking Room, which has become quite rare these days. Since I stayed on Sunday, the large public bath was available from 18:00–21:00 and in the morning for women only, so I was able to use it both times and was very satisfied! There were also lots of manga, and I ended up getting absorbed in reading them. The breakfast venue was spacious, so I could enjoy my meal at a relaxed pace!

The meals were delicious, the amenities were well stocked, and even our young children had a great time—it was wonderful.

The front desk staff were very helpful, and the Room was clean and well equipped.

We stayed at Kinugawa Onsen “Kizuna” from July 31 to August 2, 2026 (2 nights/3 days). We checked in with two adults, one child, and two Chihuahuas. I thought I had made a Reservation for a Room without an open-air bath, but due to what seemed to be a communication issue, we were instead shown to a Room with an open-air bath (a lucky surprise). Having an open-air bath in the Room meant we could enjoy the Onsen anytime, day or night, and our whole family had a truly happy time. For every meal (breakfast and dinner), we were able to dine in a private room (rather than the usual shared dining area). The menu changed each time, so we looked forward to every meal and headed there excitedly. Each dish was refined and absolutely delicious. With drinks as well, we felt completely satisfied after every meal. By chance, the Nikko Fireworks Festival was held on Saturday, August 8, and we were able to enjoy spectacular fireworks from our Room as well (another lucky moment). Above all else, what made our stay so comfortable was the attentive service from the manager and staff members—and their genuine hospitality in accommodating guests’ requests. That level of professionalism seemed to fill the entire Ryokan, allowing guests to relax completely and enjoy an exceptional experience. For three days, we fully enjoyed an extraordinary getaway both physically and mentally. It may sound childish, but it was such a wonderful Ryokan that I didn’t want to leave—I wanted to stay forever. Everyone in our family kept saying “Let’s come again,” so we will definitely return. My heartfelt thanks go out to everyone who took care of us at “Kizuna.” Thank you very much for everything.

This was my second stay. The food already has an excellent reputation, and everything I tried was truly delicious—especially the desserts. I’ve had many buffet-style meals before, and this is my No. 1. The financiers served in the lounge as a late-night snack were also very tasty. The baths go without saying. I also appreciated that the service wasn’t overbearing. Thank you for taking such good care of us.

Thanks to you, we were able to start our trip in the best possible way. Thank you very much.

We stayed at this Hotel for a company trip. It is in a great location—just a short walk from Kokusai-dori and within walking distance of both Miebashi Station and Makishi Station on the Yui Rail. The all-you-can-drink Awamori and Orion Beer servers on the first floor were also very popular with our group. I would definitely like to stay here again for a private trip.

Located less than a 3-minute walk from Chiba-Chuo Station. Although it’s close to the downtown area, the surroundings are very quiet. The large public bath is spacious and relaxing. I used it twice—once at check-in (3:00 PM) and again before going to bed. Best of all, free ice pops are available after your bath. Guests can take them freely from the ice box; there were four varieties, so I had two. The Room was clean and comfortable. I stayed here to catch the first early-morning limousine bus to Haneda Airport, and when I informed them in advance that I would be checking out early, a staff member was waiting at the front desk after 4:00 AM and kindly assisted me. A highly satisfying Hotel—highly recommended.

I realized upon arrival that I had stayed here once for work about 25 years ago. Perhaps it has been renovated since then, because the Room doesn’t feel dated at all. Oh—there is a card key, but it’s not the type that turns the power on when inserted (though it does have an auto-lock). The charging connectors support various types, giving me the impression they’ve tried to accommodate guests’ detailed needs as much as possible. The welcome drink was made with a single-cup machine, so I could enjoy a delicious coffee. The rental bicycles are also great value: 500 yen for 1 night and 2 days, and you can use them until check-out. It was very helpful since I needed to go out at night. A helmet is included as well.

The Room was spacious, the staff were very considerate, and I was very satisfied with the price. The air conditioner was excellent as well, with no odors or anything like that. I did have to look around a bit because an outlet was hidden behind the information sheet (oops). Since it’s right next to the Meitetsu railway line, those who are sensitive to noise should be aware of this (it didn’t bother me). I missed breakfast, so I can’t comment on any of the food.

Only the representative needed to register in advance, but signatures from all guests were required at check-in, and the tablet interface was a bit hard to understand. The Hotel was very clean, and we had a comfortable stay.

The spacious parking lot with plenty of spaces was a nice bonus. The Room size was just right, and I enjoyed the delicious breakfast. The rates were affordable, and I think it’s a great value Hotel. I’d like to stay here again when attending events in the area.

Even though the building is 300 years old, it has been carefully maintained down to every detail, and we had a very comfortable stay. Above all, the staff were truly wonderful. We would love to visit Kurashiki again, and Yoshii Ryokan will be our only choice. Thank you very much!

It was wonderful to experience the atmosphere of a Swiss Hotel. We were glad we could reserve the bath for private family use, and we were able to use it without any waiting time.

I stayed here to attend a concert at Sekisui Heim Super Arena. The shuttle bus departure point to the venue is right across the street from the building, which was very convenient. The Room was clean and I was satisfied.

Amazing value for money! The food was delicious, and the owner was very friendly. It made me want to come back again. It probably depends on the season, but I was very satisfied to be able to use the open-air bath privately so often! Next time, I’d love to go boat fishing—please!

The hospitality was exceptional. While the Facility is old and the bath lacks notable features, the outstanding customer service more than made up for it. The attentiveness and care during check-in, check-out, and meals were truly pleasant, allowing for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. This is professionalism at its finest—truly impressive.

The breakfast is greatly appreciated. Refills are unlimited and they even have curry, so it saves you a meal (lol). It’s not one of those stingy, typical menus, which I really appreciate. If I had to mention one drawback, the room key card is made of paper and doesn’t respond well. I often had to insert and remove it several times before it would work, which was a bit of a hassle.

The French dinner was very stylish, and the taste was a perfect 10. Breakfast was completely different—Japanese cuisine. The overnight-dried blackthroat seaperch in particular was unbelievably delicious and truly moving. For our family, who all love alcohol, the all-inclusive plan was fantastic. We were happy to be able to enjoy drinks whenever we wanted. This Accommodation doesn’t have an Onsen, but you can receive free tickets for a nearby Onsen. However, since it was summer, going outside to the Onsen left us drenched in sweat. This time, the bath in our Room might have been enough. The Facility was very clean, and the staff were wonderful—an Accommodation we definitely want to visit again!

The Accommodation was very clean and well maintained, and it was very comfortable. I’ve used the bath many times in the past, so it was exactly as expected. I’ll be visiting again in September, so thank you in advance.
