No wonder it was featured on “Adomachi Heaven.” It has the feel of an auberge in a hot spring town. The food was excellent—my picky wife was satisfied too (laughs). If you’re expecting a luxury ryokan, the atmosphere may be a little different. The couple runs the place with great care. They gave us a handwritten map to help us visit nearby sights efficiently, which was incredibly helpful. We’ve kept it as a souvenir.

I have been on business trips to Nobeoka several times and stayed at other Accommodations, but this was my first time staying at Route Inn. The Room size, the large public bath, and the breakfast were all excellent, and I had a very comfortable stay. Thank you very much.

I have stayed here before, and the facility and meals were good, allowing for a comfortable stay. Additionally, it was convenient as a base for visiting various tourist spots in Mie Prefecture.

The property was clean, and the service was excellent. The bath on the top floor had no roof, so it was cold even in Okinawa. The complimentary meal was fairly standard but tasty. Everything except the bath was wonderful.

I used Villa Fontaine for the first time because they serve Soup Stock Tokyo soups. I later looked it up and found that this is the only Villa Fontaine where you can have Soup Stock Tokyo soup. The breakfast selection isn’t very large compared with other hotels. If I remember correctly, it was about two kinds of soup, 4–5 kinds of bread, salad, scrambled eggs, sausages, ham, yogurt, fruit and jelly desserts, and drinks. There was no rice. A wide variety of breakfast options is appealing, but I always worry about food waste when there’s too much left over, so this felt more than sufficient. There are two self check-in machines. A staff member was assisting the guest ahead of me at one machine the whole time; that itself wasn’t an issue. However, my check-in screen loaded very slowly and it took about 10 minutes to complete. Partway through a staff member said something like “Mr./Ms. ***, thank you for waiting…” so I assume they could see who was trying to check in from the back office. I don’t know whether someone needs to operate the system behind the scenes for it to proceed, but if they already knew my name, I wish they could have helped resolve it. Only twin rooms were available at the time, so although I was traveling alone I stayed in a twin room. Even though this was a business trip and I wanted to use my laptop in the room, there was only a small table (about 40–50 cm square), so it wasn’t suitable for working with both a laptop and an external monitor spread out. That was my choice though. Because it was a twin room it felt slightly more spacious overall, which made it comfortable in that respect. The mattress firmness suited me well. I’d be happy to stay again if I have another opportunity.

We took the last flight the day before heading to Kouri Island and arrived close to midnight for a one-night stay. The Japanese-style room was spacious and comfortable. The range of services provided at this accommodation for the price was excellent. Choosing your own pillow, selecting shampoo and conditioner, treats for children during Halloween—such thoughtful gestures were delightful. It’s an accommodation we’d love to stay at again.

This was my second stay. It was a Multiple Night Stay, and I really appreciated that complimentary water was included along with the replacement towels. Many places don’t offer that these days. The building was clean and comfortable to stay in. However, the hallway felt a bit too dark.

Now that we’re done raising our children, five friends and I take a girls’ trip every year, and we often stay at APA Hotels. The lobby staff are kind, and at the APA Hotel in Ishigaki Island we were able to enjoy 24-hour complimentary drinks and soft-serve ice cream, which made for a very comfortable stay. However, an elderly woman overseeing the breakfast area repeatedly told us to put the tables back and clear the dishes before even waiting to see if we would do so, which was very unpleasant.

This price is a great deal for the location. Of course, it’s an older and smaller Accommodation, but it’s a very good one. It might feel a bit scary if an earthquake happens, though.

There was a great selection, from treats like crab and grilled eel steak to local specialties such as ramen and dango-jiru. They also had ice cream for dessert, which was very satisfying. I used the large public bath early, so it wasn’t crowded and I could relax. There is also a private family bath, making it convenient for families with small children.

We visited as a family of four, meeting up at Yamanashishi Station with our eldest son who lives in Tokyo and the three of us who drove from Kansai. As we got closer to the Accommodation, the country road shown by the navigation system made us think, “Could it really be this way?” and we struggled a little. If I had to mention any negatives from this trip, it would be that—and that the washbasin sink was black, so water marks were slightly noticeable after use. Upon arrival, we were surprised by how distinct and impressive it looked compared with its surroundings. We arrived about 30 minutes earlier than planned, but we were warmly welcomed and smoothly shown inside, which left a great first impression. The moment we opened the tasteful sliding entrance door set back from the gate, we were moved by the view stretching from the pine tree in the center courtyard all the way to the kura storehouse building across it. While preserving many historical elements—such as exterior walls, tiled roof, and pillars—the interior has been renovated into a clean and refined space that feels wonderful to spend time in. In both the audio room at the back where you can listen to records and the second-floor study stocked with everything from relatively recent Japanese literature to art books and foreign titles, there were chairs and ottomans in different styles arranged throughout. We were able to forget everyday life and relax at length. These spaces became favorites for my wife and daughter, who have a strong appreciation for music and art. My eldest son and I also used the sauna in the separate kura building across the courtyard before dinner. It’s available 24 hours; he enjoyed it late at night, while I went again after breakfast the next morning. In addition to a cold plunge bath there is also a regular bathtub; together with the indoor hinoki cypress bath in main building where you can fully stretch out your legs, there are two bathing options. Dinner and breakfast were served in another kura building on opposite side , featuring thoughtfully crafted dishes using plenty of local ingredients. We thoroughly enjoyed everything—especially Koshu-style sukiyaki with beef and horse meat paired with three dipping sauces—alongside wine we picked up on our way there. After dinner we projected onto a large screen with projector held family drama viewing night for all four of us. We slept in bedroom where four beds could be lined up comfortably side by side. They even provided charging cables at each bedside equipped with three types of connectors—we were impressed by such attention to detail. Speaking of details: along with alcohol , refrigerator was stocked plenty chilled mineral water which was very helpful given season . There was also an assortment of nostalgic snacks card games insect-repellent items etc., showing both thoughtfulness playfulness. A location completely removed from noise spacious layout well-maintained Facilities lacking nothing an endlessly interesting interior blending old new perfectly—and being able enjoy all without interference as family four. It exceeded our expectations imagination. We’re glad chose this place for one those precious few times each year when whole family can gather . Thank you for your attentive hospitality .

A friend recommended Kiyosato to me, and my long-awaited 3-night, 4-day stay during the Obon holiday finally came true. We were very well taken care of at Country Inn Orchard. The owner welcomed us warmly, and everything—from the meals to the interior design—was beautiful, making our memories in Kiyosato truly unforgettable. By the time I boarded the train out of Kiyosato on the last day, I already wanted to come back again soon. Thank you very much!

We were thrilled with the food—it exceeded our expectations. The pasta, fish, and meat were all delicious, and we were especially impressed by the meat sauce pasta. With a typhoon approaching, we weren’t expecting to see Mt. Fuji, but when we woke up in the morning, it was there! We drove a few minutes to Panorama-dai to enjoy the view. The hot sandwiches and soba at breakfast were also comforting and tasty. We did notice some noise, and it seemed like there was only a toilet in the room, but even so it was a very satisfying one-night stay. We’d love to come back many times in different seasons. Thank you very much—we look forward to staying again.

I had long wanted to walk the Yamanobe-no-Michi trail, and I chose this Accommodation along the route because I was drawn to its medicinal cuisine. As a result, I felt wonderfully healed both physically and mentally! I gave one less star for the meals because breakfast felt a little lacking. Each item in the Room was lovely, and I also liked how each Room is designed around a small garden. I’ll never forget opening the door in the morning and being enveloped in the wonderful scent of herbs and greenery. If I have another chance, I’d love to visit again.

Because we visited during a typhoon, it was a bit disappointing that we couldn’t take a walk around Kosuge Village, enjoy the Onsen, or have a bonfire, but we were able to fully enjoy our stay at the Accommodation instead. The meals featured local ingredients and were mainly centered around river fish. I don’t usually eat river fish, but every dish we had here was delicious. Since it’s all-inclusive, it was also great that we could order a variety of drinks. It said that Diamond members would receive honey as a perk, but there was no explanation on the day and we weren’t able to receive it when leaving either. We were looking forward to it, so that was a little disappointing.

Getting there was challenging because we had to transfer between the Shinkansen and Kintetsu lines, but it was a Hotel well worth the trip. The menu featured local vegetables, eggs, fish, and meat, and we enjoyed a feast you can only experience here. The sauna was also great. We could truly feel the sincere hospitality of everyone working there, which warmed our hearts. It’s a Hotel we would love to visit again.

We stayed here for the first time to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The space was incredibly comfortable, and we’d love to come again. The welcome drink and baked treats won us over right away, and the Accommodation itself was wonderful. The sauna was available as much as we wanted from 6:00 to 22:00, and 90°C was just perfect. The cold bath water felt silky—you could tell it was rich in minerals and iron. There were plenty of towels, the herbal tea in the fridge was delicious, and the loungewear felt amazing on the skin. If I had to mention one thing, the OSAJI? amenities—toner and emulsion—had not been replenished. When I asked, I was told they weren’t available due to import circumstances, so it would have been even better if we had been informed in advance. (There’s a convenience store nearby, so we went to buy some.) The food was very tasty—especially the shabu-shabu and seafood, which were fresh and delicious. It did need a bit of reheating, but it was great being able to enjoy it indoors without worrying about others around us. Thank you very much. Next time we’d like to stay at hanare!

This was our first time staying here as a couple. We truly felt that the mountain village scenery and the clear stream flowing nearby are all part of what makes this wonderful inn so special. The French cuisine, expertly served right in front of us by the chef, was outstanding and deeply impressive. Thank you for giving us such wonderful memories in Nishimera Village.

We had a truly fulfilling and enjoyable stay here. Six of us stayed together, including our children and their spouses. From the pre-departure emails to the on-site guidance, everything was very clear, so we felt at ease throughout our stay. The Facility was also kept very clean and well maintained, and we were completely satisfied in every way. We bought ingredients at a nearby supermarket and had a barbecue for the first time, which was great fun. Even though it was late May, we were able to use the pool, and the rock bath accessible from the poolside was also very comfortable. One night went by in no time—we definitely want to come back for two nights next time!

We stayed with a friend’s family. As others have mentioned, not only were the views spectacular, but every detail was thoughtfully taken care of—we were impressed by the uncompromising quality throughout. The property manager was also very helpful. We enjoyed a truly high-quality stay; it was our best experience ever.
