Juhachiro

This was our first trip using a wheelchair. As it may be our last trip, we chose a place that is wheelchair-accessible, has an Onsen, and serves delicious meals. From the moment we arrived, you kindly assisted with the wheelchair, and we truly appreciate that you arranged a Room in an easy-to-use location for wheelchair access. The Onsen was also accessible by wheelchair, and we were able to enjoy it about twice. Above all, they had more appetite than usual and ate a lot. Thank you for helping us create one last wonderful memory.

We stayed here as a family during the Obon holidays. “Juhachiro,” nestled in the atmospheric Kawaramachi district along the Nagara River, was a wonderful Accommodation that preserves the charm of a classic Onsen Ryokan. The entire building has aged beautifully in a positive way, and it has been carefully renovated, creating a very calm and relaxing atmosphere. The Onsen is said to be supplied from a source north of the Nagara River, and it felt incredibly soothing. It warmed us through to the core, and we were able to unwind and fully enjoy the baths while being healed by the view of the Nagara River from the window. Dinner was kaiseki cuisine featuring Hida beef and ayu (sweetfish). The presentation was beautiful and enjoyable to look at as well. The seasoning and aroma were exquisite, bringing out each ingredient’s natural flavors; everything was cooked perfectly, and the meat had an almost melt-in-your-mouth texture. We were completely satisfied with every aspect of our stay, and we would love to return again in another season.
