Yuhigaura Onsen ryotei Kai

On August 7, when we were worried about the impact of a strong typhoon, we headed to Kyotango—a trip we had been looking forward to for a long time. Due to my misunderstanding, I entered the entrance at 2:00 p.m., only to find no one at the front desk. Of course—check-in starts at 3:00 p.m. Even so, they assisted us right away and guided us to our Room in about 10 minutes.That was where I began causing trouble. I couldn’t wait for the dinner and breakfast that receive such high praise in every Review. Since we arrived early, I was also the first to use the large public bath. The open-air bath had an amazing ocean view and felt incredible. The right edge of the tub had a slope, so I assumed it was thoughtful design for children and older guests—but there was an identical slope on the left side as well. Looking closer, I noticed the rim of the bath was curved. It turned out it was designed as a reclining bath—the slopes were made so you could lie back while enjoying the sea view. I soaked in the open-air bath, quietly moved by how wonderful it was.Afterward, I enjoyed a canned beer and complimentary sake (excellent) in the relaxation area and returned to our Room—when an accident happened: news of a death in my close family arrived. After discussing it with my wife, we decided to give up on breakfast that we had been looking forward to. Since our trip there took about 3 hours and 45 minutes, I asked at the front desk if we could leave early in the morning—and they kindly agreed.Dinner began while my mind still felt unsettled, but everything from the first appetizer onward was delicious, and my wife and I found ourselves exchanging smiles again and again. Partway through, we were guided outside to watch the sunset from the terrace—body, heart, and taste buds all completely satisfied.Despite our very early departure time, they even came out to see us off when we left. I was truly moved.We caused you so much inconvenience—thank you for giving us such an outstanding Accommodation experience.

Thank you for such a wonderfully relaxing time.The ocean view from the Room was amazing. The sunset show as the sun sank into the horizon was truly breathtaking!! At night we enjoyed stargazing, and in the morning we woke to the songs of wild birds... it was a blissful one-night stay.Both dinner and breakfast were satisfying in both portion size and taste. The Tango Koshihikari rice was delicious!!All of the Accommodation staff were incredibly friendly, and we were able to spend our time feeling very relaxed. I was even mistaken for a repeat guest by the staff member who guided us to our Room on arrival (lol). From check-in to check-out, everything felt so easygoing. I’d love to visit again in a different season—maybe even for a Multiple Night Stay. Oh, next time I’ll make sure to remember everyone’s names from their name tags. Thank you again, and please keep up the great work!
