Pet-Friendly Accommodation Wa! Kingdom Inu no Sato

We stayed for a Multiple Night Stay of four nights.Above all, this Accommodation is truly pet-friendly. We visited with both a dog and a cat, and they both seemed relaxed and happy.There were plenty of amenities for dogs and cats, plus facilities such as a dog run. We could stay with peace of mind, and all the staff clearly love animals, which made our time here even more special.The Japanese staff were wonderful as expected, and the international staff were also incredibly polite—so much so that we initially thought they were Japanese—always with warm smiles. It gave us the sense that the training and working environment here must be excellent.The staff deserve more than five stars.Meals are à la carte, so you can choose whatever you like each day in any amount you want. This was especially appreciated during our Multiple Night Stay, and everything was consistently above average in taste.They offer a great balance of both Japanese and Western dishes, so we never got bored. Every day was delicious.Alcohol at night at the bar, as well as drinks in the Room refrigerator, are included, which is very reassuring for those who enjoy drinking.In addition, 30 minutes of spa treatment per day was included; I even received a massage and felt truly healed.The Room was neither too large nor too small—just right for two people—and it was well designed and easy to use.The hot spring water left our skin smooth and glossy; it was excellent.Both the indoor bath and open-air bath are fed directly from the source (free-flowing), and we could adjust both volume and temperature using only the natural spring water.It’s pure luxury.These days many Hotels or Ryokan only allow smoking in designated areas, so being able to smoke on our private terrace attached to the Room is something smokers will really appreciate,especially if you want to have a drink on the terrace while enjoying a cigarette.Because the terrace is surrounded by high walls, our cat could also go for walks there safely.Cats tend to run off easily, so it’s rare to let them stroll freely—this was another great point. Our cat looked completely at ease.It was our first time visiting Kikuchi City. There are many wonderful places nearby including Kikuchi Gorge,and Aso is less than an hour away by car, making sightseeing very convenient.Since there is a university stable near this Accommodation, there may occasionally be a slight animal smell,but that isn’t an issue caused by this Accommodation itself. And since this is an Accommodation that pet lovers choose specifically because they travel with animals,I think it’s simply something not to worry about (it didn’t bother me).This is a fantastic Accommodation where you can truly relax with your pets. Thank you very much.

I have stayed here many times.The meals are served buffet-style to order, with each dish carefully and beautifully presented, and everything tastes amazing.The menu changes with the seasons, and it’s so delicious that I always end up eating too much.On my dog’s birthday, the staff also offered their congratulations. Everyone speaks kindly to the dogs, and my dogs truly enjoy it.The spa treatments, Onsen, food, and staff—everything is soothing, and the hospitality is always outstanding no matter when we visit.
