Nationwide × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan for Onsen and bath - 60Page Number

From the warm welcome to the lovely smile of the proprietress who served our meal, everything was full of hospitality, and the food was delicious. There was also a private bath, so I was able to spend a relaxing time with my wife, and I would like to stay again.

Because the property is operated by a small team, there were a few minor things I noticed, but the meals were delicious and served in just the right portions, and I was able to enjoy the bath to my satisfaction with a Reservation. I’d love to come back in autumn to see the fall foliage.

All staff members checked in with us thoughtfully and attentively, which made our family’s stay very comfortable. Thank you for your warm hospitality. We will make a Reservation at the Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto again for our next stay in Kyoto.

Spacious and affordable—very helpful for us. Sorry to mention this in a comment, but we found the key plate we had misplaced. Thank you for looking for it. We will use your place again.

We stayed for one night with our dog on a weekend in late September. It had been a while since we last visited Regina, but everything was wonderful—the facilities, the staff, and more. Our dog had a great time sprinting around the dog run. For dinner, we enjoyed a course meal together with our dog, and we also appreciated the wide selection of wines by the glass. We’d love to come again.

This traditional Showa-era ryokan felt wonderfully nostalgic. It did feel a bit old, but it was thoroughly cleaned and very good value for the price. Dinner was kaiseki and breakfast was a standard set meal; unlike the recent trend of dinner buffets and breakfast buffets, it was refreshing not to have to go and pick up food yourself. One drawback was the stairs and their narrow width when moving around inside the building, which may be inconvenient for older guests.

This was our first trip with our Pacific parrotlet. After researching online, we found this Hotel recommended as a must-visit spot, so we decided to stay here. As this stay also celebrated our wedding anniversary, we arranged a cake, and we were pleasantly surprised when the Hotel provided sparkling wine. Thank you very much for your thoughtful hospitality. It became a truly memorable trip.

We stayed here as three generations—my mother-in-law, my husband, myself, and our children. The inn was very quiet, and since there was only one other group besides us, we were able to relax and enjoy a peaceful stay. For the bath, we could check availability on the signboard next to the reception desk, which made it easy to go in when it was free. My mother-in-law, my daughter, and I were able to enjoy it almost like a private bath together across three generations—such a wonderful memory. We were told the meals use herbal medicine ingredients, but there was no strong taste at all—just gentle, wholesome flavors that were truly delicious. They also prepared special dishes for our 6- and 5-year-old children, who were thrilled and really enjoyed their meal. In our room they provided both beds and futons. The children and I slept on futons while my mother-in-law and husband used the beds. Being able to separate sleeping arrangements according to everyone’s routine made our multi-generational stay very comfortable. There is also a river behind the inn, and in the morning my husband and son went for a walk. It seems they had a refreshing start to the day surrounded by nature. The food, the baths, and the staff’s hospitality were all excellent—we were completely satisfied with our stay. If I had one small note: there are quite a few stairs inside the building, so older guests or anyone with mobility concerns may find getting around a bit challenging. Other than that, everything was truly comfortable, and our whole family had a wonderful time. We would love to stay again if we have another opportunity.

My sister, her beloved dog Momo, and I stayed at Yabuman as a group of three. From the time we made the reservation, they were incredibly kind and helpful whenever we had questions about bringing our dog. When we arrived, all the staff warmly welcomed us. The meals were absolutely wonderful and delicious. We were completely full—both in body and in heart! Breakfast and dinner were served in a separate, spacious private room, where my sister and I could relax with drinks and talk at length. Of course, Momo was with us too. The hot spring was amazing—the water felt silky-smooth. The proprietress and every member of the staff were truly lovely. An outstanding long-established ryokan! Thank you for giving me such wonderful memories with my sister and Momo. We would love to stay again.

The meals were all delicious, leaving us with very fond memories. It was a soft-shelled turtle course, and the price felt so reasonable that in Tokyo, accommodation would likely be charged separately. Although the building itself is old, it was well-maintained and did not bother us at all. Next time, we would like to have a multiple night stay. Thank you very much!

I stayed here to relax and unwind on my own. From the exterior alone it was exactly my style, and the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by the wonderful scent of wood—perfect. Although it’s surrounded by nature, there are shops nearby, so I felt safe and comfortable even traveling solo. The room was spotless and very comfortable. Thank you for your kind and attentive communication by email. I’ll be back.

This was one of the inns I had wanted to stay at for a long time. At first glance, it looks like a private home in a mountain village, and as you go further in, you’ll find the guest rooms and hot spring baths. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, quiet, and very relaxing. The meals were delicious, and I thoroughly enjoyed the hot springs as well. Dinner was served in a private room where we could do irori-style grilling, so it was great to eat at our own pace without worrying about others. The chef’s handmade menu card had wonderful taste and beautiful illustrations—I was truly impressed. All ingredients were locally sourced, with clear explanations so you could even know who produced them. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented on autumn-themed tableware; enjoying the seasonal flavors with both eyes and palate made everything taste even better. Soaking in the hot springs and savoring excellent food made for a truly luxurious time—I was very satisfied. It’s an inn I would love to visit again.

I wanted to support a locally run, family-owned Accommodation, so I chose Irifune this time. The moment I stepped inside from the entrance, I was thrilled! After leaving the large public bath in the morning, I relaxed in the lobby with a cup of coffee. Spending unhurried time in the lobby while enjoying the traditional old house atmosphere was wonderful. The Room, the private bath in the Room, and the meals—everything was outstanding! I also purchased a pair of geta sandals. From now on, every time I wear them, I’ll remember Irifune and enjoy that lingering feeling in my everyday life. If I use them as indoor slippers, I’ll have more chances to wear them, so I plan to use them indoors. To all the staff: when I come back to Kumamoto, Irifune will be my only choice for a Reservation! Thank you for taking such great care of me! Thank you very much!

This was my third stay. The location is convenient, the rooms are well cleaned, and it was very comfortable. The breakfast had a wide variety of options and was delicious. The large public bath also seemed to be cleaned regularly, so I could relax comfortably. I would like to stay here again when I visit Kyoto.

I had been looking forward to my stay at Manpei Hotel, but after arriving I became unwell and developed a fever over 38°C. Even so, the staff were incredibly kind—lending me a thermometer and promptly bringing an ice pack and ice. They also kindly changed all of my meals to room service, allowing me to rest and eat comfortably in my room. Although my long-awaited stay turned out differently than expected, I truly appreciated the thoughtful care and warm hospitality, especially while I wasn’t feeling well. Unfortunately, I ended up spending most of the time in the room this visit, but my husband was very pleased and said the in-room hot spring bath was wonderful. While I wasn’t able to fully enjoy the hotel in perfect health, the kindness of the staff is what stayed with me most. Next time, I would love to return when I’m feeling well and take my time enjoying this historic hotel and its dining. Thank you very much for everything.

The room was spotless, the service was outstanding, the bath was very relaxing, and the breakfast was excellent—I was extremely satisfied. I was worried it might be far from JR Nagasaki Station, but it turned out to be an easy walk. There is a bus stop right in front of the hotel for buses from the airport, which was very convenient. If I had to mention one small request, I would have liked a dimming function on the bedside lamp. Thank you very much for your hospitality. I will definitely stay here again when I visit Nagasaki.

The room was clean, and it was a lovely property where I could relax and truly enjoy my stay. Dinner was very filling, and I was extremely satisfied. After dinner, there was an event where complimentary sake was served, so I enjoyed comparing different varieties. It was scary when three large centipedes appeared one after another at night, but when I called the front desk they responded immediately, which made me feel reassured. All of the staff were kind and had wonderful smiles, making this a truly enjoyable trip. I also enjoyed the large public bath, the in-room bath, and the courtyard garden—staying here was fantastic. Thank you very much.

I was extremely satisfied with all the Facilities in the property. The all-inclusive plan and the amenities bar were both excellent. The meals were delicious, and they were served at just the right timing. I truly felt genuine hospitality from all the staff, and it was incredibly comfortable! I will definitely be back again.

At this Hotel with wonderful interiors, I was able to relax in the Onsen, enjoy truly delicious vegan cuisine, and spend a very happy time. All of the staff were kind, helpful, and courteous—I was truly impressed. Next year, I’d love to stay for about a week and enjoy a slow summer vacation. It was such a lovely summer that it made me hope I could spend my retirement at a Hotel like this.

This was my first stay. The station and morning market were close by, and the view from the open-air bath was amazing, so I was very satisfied. The staff were also pleasant and welcoming. The only disappointing point was that the restaurant I chose with the breakfast voucher wasn’t very good. I had been looking forward to breakfast at the morning market, so that was a shame—choosing the right place matters. Everything else was great, and I’d like to visit again.
