I stayed here the night before climbing Mt. Fuji. I considered a Hotel, but made a Reservation because the price was reasonable and breakfast and dinner were included. It was a comfortable place to relax, and the meals were delicious—I was very satisfied. Thank you very much for accommodating my preferred breakfast time on the morning of my climb. I would love to stay again.

Stayed one night during Golden Week. Much better than the major Hotel we stayed at the previous day. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious. The Onsen seemed medicinal. There is a designated smoking area on the premises, available 24 hours a day. Dog crates are available for loan, and pet amenities are well provided.

We checked in early and were able to relax until dinner. The meals were beautifully presented, with great taste and satisfying portions. The timing of each course was also excellent. We always felt that the staff were quietly looking out for us. We hardly ran into other guests, so we could truly enjoy our own time. The only issue was that when returning to the Room at night, it was dark near the entrance and difficult to unlock the door. We would definitely like to stay again.

I stayed here with my cousin and his wife. The bath is small, but it has a nostalgic, traditional atmosphere that feels calming and relaxing. There was also a slightly hotter tub, and it warmed my body gradually afterward, which was great. At meals, the hostess provided careful and easy-to-understand explanations, and the food was even more delicious than I had imagined—I was very satisfied. This is an Accommodation I would like to visit again if I have the chance.

I stayed in a single, but it was more like a partitioned space with a curtain at the entrance than a private Room. The pull-out storage was convenient. I had a chance to talk with another guest staying in a single, and it was a nice time. The women-only washroom, toilets, and bath area were clean. Convenience stores and shops are within walking distance, but restaurants may be fully booked or closed on certain days. The Shuttle Service was very helpful. You can freely use the lounge where you can bring your own food. Sometimes there is no staff at reception, but you can contact them by mobile phone when needed. Wi-Fi in the Room building was hard to connect to, so I used it near reception instead. If I visit Rishiri again, I would like to stay here again.

The jinbei loungewear was very comfortable to wear. I even went to the breakfast restaurant wearing it. Breakfast also offered a good variety—Japanese and Western dishes as well as desserts—considering the reasonable Accommodation Fee. There was a Doutor coffee machine in the lobby, which I also enjoyed.

We stayed here for his birthday trip. The entire second floor was reserved exclusively for us, so we could relax without worrying about noise. The view from the window was beautiful, and even though it rained, the water color was still stunning. The meals made with Shimanto ingredients were delicious, and the private bath was wonderful as well. There were many maple trees on the property, so we would love to see the autumn scenery. It was a truly lovely Ryokan that we would happily stay at again when visiting Kochi. Thank you very much.

The female staff member’s courteous service was excellent. I was also pleasantly surprised, as I hadn’t known in advance that welcome drinks and breakfast were free. The Room also had a large table, which made my stay comfortable. Thank you very much.

The staff welcomed us so warmly, and even when we were leaving, they took such great care of us that we didn’t want to go home! We decided to add breakfast at the last minute, and it was wonderful—having breakfast in the courtyard was amazing, and everything tasted fantastic. The view is beautiful and the Hotel is very clean, so I think you can truly relax and enjoy a peaceful stay. Also, when we called the taxi company you recommended, we were lucky to get a kind driver who told us about lots of sightseeing spots—it was great! Even when we forgot something, a staff member ran outside to help us, and thanks to them our trip stayed wonderful right until the end. It was so lovely that words can’t really do it justice—so please just try staying here! We’ll definitely come again! Just one last thing: I’d be very happy if the hair dryer had a stronger airflow.

I stayed for three nights for a mountain-climbing trip. The staff’s hospitality, the cleanliness of the Accommodation, and the quality and taste of the meals all exceeded my expectations. Everyone on the staff was especially pleasant, and it really reminded me that what makes an Accommodation great is its people. I would love to stay again next time. Thank you very much.

Our whole family stayed here, and it was an outstanding experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s warm welcome was wonderful, and our daughters were in great spirits the entire time. Because it’s a registered tangible cultural property, the building has a deep sense of character. Yet with its modern interior, it didn’t feel intimidating at all—we could relax as if we were at home. The beautifully maintained garden was also ours to enjoy since there were no other guests during our stay, and the kids had a great time. I found myself wishing there were more Accommodations like this—Japan’s travel culture would be even richer. While we did feel welcomed by the town as a whole, it was a bit quiet, which was a shame. It’s such a great location that I hope it becomes more lively. We will definitely return again—thank you for everything, and we look forward to staying with you in the future.

After my first stay in April, I became completely captivated by Kito Nasu and decided I absolutely had to visit again within the year. This was my long-awaited second stay! Last time, I stayed for one night, but it wasn’t enough to fully enjoy this wonderful place, so this time I stayed for two nights! From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by a delightful blend of wood and incense scents that make you want to take a deep breath. The sauna was as amazing as ever!! The layout is well thought out, and the fresh air makes outdoor cooling sessions incredibly refreshing. If you're experienced with lighting wood saunas, it’s easy to get started; even if it’s your first time, there’s a clear manual provided so anyone can do it quickly! The bathroom amenities are thoughtfully stocked with MUJI products. There’s not only a hairdryer but also a hair iron available. While there is just one mirror in the space, it's spacious enough for two people to use comfortably. I absolutely love the Aqua Feel bath that amazed me during my last visit—it makes you want to soak endlessly! (This time I used it five times!) The washing machine and gas dryer are super convenient; they even provide high-quality fabric softener that leaves your laundry warm, fluffy, and wonderfully fragrant after every wash. The restroom plays soothing music when seated and has its own handwashing area—very convenient—and yes, even the restroom smells great! The kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances including a large refrigerator and plenty of stylish tableware. Everything here exceeds expectations—it feels like every “wouldn’t it be nice if they had this” has already been anticipated at Kito Nasu. Personally speaking, I don’t think there’s another private accommodation as charming as this one anywhere else. I’ve already started planning my next trip while searching through social media for similar private accommodations like Kito Nasu—but nothing compares so far! So now I'm thinking about visiting again early next year—this time for three nights! It truly feels like a second home where each visit makes you want to stay longer—a very relaxing accommodation. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

I had previously visited for a day trip to the Onsen and loved both the Onsen and the scenery, so I decided to stay overnight. The meals were excellent, the view from the Room was wonderful, and my stay was very comfortable. Unfortunately, the outdoor bath in the morning was so cold that it hardly felt like an Onsen.\n\nAs it is currently off-season, there was no shuttle bus on weekdays, which made things difficult. Even one round-trip Shuttle Service would be very helpful.

Thank you for your kind hospitality even though we arrived late!

At first, the exterior made me wonder, “Is this really the place?” but once inside, it was incredibly spacious and wonderful! For two adults, there were more than enough Rooms and futons. I’m not good with insects, so the moths on the balcony were a bit scary, but in the Room we only saw ants and a few tiny bugs. The Room was clean, the bathroom was clean, and the open-air bath had an amazing view. On the first day it was cloudy and rainy so we couldn’t see much, but the next day it cleared up and we could see islands—it was beautiful. They also provided dog pee pads and diapers, so we were very satisfied with this Accommodation! On our way home we visited Izu Animal Kingdom as well and had a great time. Our dog seemed happy too—thank you very much!

We visited as a group of six: a family of four with two brothers (an older brother in kindergarten and a younger brother who will soon turn 2), plus grandpa and grandma. Our younger child is at an age where he can’t sit still, so even eating out is usually a bit challenging. That’s why we chose this Accommodation, where we could relax without worrying about others. It turned out to be truly wonderful. At a regular park you have to constantly worry about kids running off, but here the area is enclosed, which was such a relief! Some of the play equipment was still a bit advanced for our 1-year-old, but there was also a swing and plenty of outdoor toys, so I think he had an amazing time. They also had various toys prepared indoors, so we didn’t have any “I don’t want to go inside!!” tantrums either. We were grateful they even provided bath bombs! Our kids were thrilled with Thomas toys, drawing on the windows, and the night lights too. Our plan was to arrive around noon to play outside and then start BBQ when check-in time came—but around noon it was still drizzling. After seeing the yard, the kids went straight into “we want to play anyway” mode and played while getting a little wet. When the rain got heavier partway through, we headed to a nearby supermarket for a while. By the way, bringing sneakers, sandals, and rain boots for this trip turned out to be the right choice! On our stay date it stopped raining during BBQ time so it worked out fine, but we did find ourselves wishing there were more cover extending over where the tables are set up. Of course there’s some effort involved in preparing most things ourselves, but having energetic kids and not needing to worry about other guests’ eyes made it genuinely stress-free. This was the most relaxing and enjoyable trip with children we’ve ever had!

I stayed here with the No Meals Included plan for a mountain climb. The Accommodation was spotless throughout, and both the Room and the bath were very comfortable. Above all, I truly appreciated the hostess’s warm hospitality, which helped me relax and enjoy my stay. Thanks to that, I was able to rest well before my climb. I would love to stay again if I have a chance to visit the area. Thank you very much.

This was our fourth stay, visiting at the end of summer with our two dogs. We love how delicious the course dinner is. The Room is clean, and we’re very satisfied with the private bath as well! It seems to be run by brothers, and they are calm, kind, and very pleasant to talk with. We come once a year, and we’d love to visit again.

It was a wonderful Accommodation, just as the Reviews said! Because it’s located up in the mountains, the air is crisp and clear, and the stars in the night sky are simply beautiful. Even though it was August, the nighttime temperature was around 23°C and pleasantly cool—an ideal summer retreat. Bringing protection against insect bites is recommended. The building itself is old, but the Room is spacious, and everything—including the bath—was impeccably clean, not even a single hair out of place. Every dish was delicious, with just the right portion sizes, and we were extremely satisfied. It had a warm, homey atmosphere that felt like being back at my parents’ house, and meeting an adorable cat at night was so soothing. I’d love to stay again!

We stayed in a cottage, and the Room was comfortable with the warmth of wood and clean bedding. The meals exceeded our expectations in both quality and quantity, and we enjoyed drinks as well, making it a wonderful time—we were very satisfied. We would love to stay again.
