IMAIZUMI Station × Accommodation With À La Carte DiningHighly rated for customer service and hospitality at Hotel·Ryokan

We stayed as a couple on 8/5. The Ryokan is located around the middle of the Akayu Onsen town. Arriving at the entrance on a quiet midsummer afternoon, we were warmly welcomed by a beautiful proprietress. The artworks displayed throughout were truly beautiful and valuable, with a nostalgic yet mysterious feel—it was like visiting a hidden museum surrounded by majestic mountains. The Onsen baths included a Roman-style bath and a rock bath. Everything was kept very clean, and the artistic atmosphere carried through. Best of all, the water was pleasantly hot and felt great for stiff shoulders and nerve pain. The shower pressure was strong too—excellent. We ate nearby this time, but it sounds like they offer carefully curated menus. And the Room: a spacious Japanese-style Room, welcome tea and sweets, and a large TV. We were very satisfied. I also saw comments from others saying the facilities and building are old—but that’s exactly part of its charm. I hope it can remain just as it is for as long as possible. It was an old-fashioned, artistic Ryokan where we could truly relax and feel healed. Thank you very much!

It was a traditional Ryokan with a sense of history. The hinoki wood bath was also excellent.

Thank you very much for your flexible support. All of the staff were friendly, kind, and attentive, and we had a very comfortable stay. We were able to rent a yukata for our dog—something she rarely gets to wear—and took some adorable photos. Both dinner and breakfast offered a wide variety of dishes, and everything was delicious. Because our stay was on a tight schedule, we couldn’t go fishing this time, but our dog happily ran around in the spacious dog run, and we were very satisfied with our stay. When we visit Nanyo or Shirataka again, we would definitely like to stay here again.
