This stay was our long-awaited “revenge trip” after we had to cancel in February because a family member came down with the flu. Because the entire Accommodation is covered with tatami, our family member with mobility issues didn’t need to put on geta or slippers, and we were able to relax without stress. The Room was spotless and well maintained, making it very comfortable, and the view opened straight onto an unspoiled rural landscape. We took a breather with a welcome drink before dinner. Dinner featured an abundance of seasonal ingredients such as red snow crab, roe-bearing sweetfish, and matsutake mushrooms—delighting not only the palate but also the eyes and nose. The large public bath felt wonderfully open, as if an outdoor bath were floating within the garden. Towels were also stacked in front of the bath area, so there was no need to bring them from your Room as is common these days. If I had to mention one thing, I feel it would be more fitting to have towels rather than paper towels placed near the sink in the Room. At departure they even removed leaves stuck to our car’s windshield. There was no pushy “this-and-that” service; instead, their thoughtful attention that reaches exactly where needed was truly pleasant. It was an exceptional Accommodation that made us want to return in another season.

Because our previous stay was so enjoyable, we returned. The Room, service, and hot spring Facility were all very comfortable. Both dinner and breakfast were prepared in a way that really highlighted the quality of the ingredients. The sweets in the Room and the herbal tea before bed were soothing for both body and mind. It’s been a long time since I’ve slept so deeply and felt this well-rested. Maybe it’s just my imagination, but my skin even seems to be in better condition. We would love to stay again.

From arrival to departure, the staff treated us with great care, and we had a very pleasant stay. The service was impeccable. The Room retains the charm of a traditional Japanese house while offering a calm, spacious layout for relaxing. In addition to the deck, there is also an area with a sofa where you can sit and take in the outdoor scenery at your leisure, which made it easy to unwind. Unfortunately, it rained quite heavily during our stay, so we couldn’t enjoy the deck as much as we had hoped. The Onsen was also wonderful—you can soak in free-flowing natural hot spring water whenever you like. The bathtub was spacious enough to relax and fully enjoy the Onsen. There is a separate shower room in front of the bathing area as well, which made it convenient to wash before getting into the tub. What left the strongest impression on us in particular was the cuisine. Fresh seafood was used generously, and every dish was absolutely delicious. Although we weren’t blessed with good weather this time and couldn’t see the sunset we had been looking forward to, we still thoroughly enjoyed simply spending time at this Accommodation. Being able to relax so comfortably even on a rainy day may be something unique to Ujo Soan. We were highly satisfied with everything—service, Room, Onsen, and meals—and it’s an Accommodation we would love to visit again.

My mother and I stayed here together. It was our first visit in over a decade, since we came as a family of three with my late father. We were able to enjoy the delicious meals that impressed us so much back then, and simply soaking in the bath and relaxing brought such a wonderful sense of happiness. I also found it lovely to see the proprietress and everyone else working so briskly and efficiently. I shared how delighted my father had been at the time, and it became a meaningful holiday during Higan. Thank you very much.

We stayed one night at the newly opened Kakoi to celebrate our dog’s birthday. The hospitality of all the staff was excellent, and the young female staff member in charge of our room was very attentive. From check-in to check-out, we had a truly comfortable stay. We were satisfied with everything—the room, the bath, the meals, and the service. Our dog enjoyed it too. We would love to visit again.

We had a thoroughly satisfying stay in every aspect—the Room, open-air bath, outdoor sauna, meals, and hospitality. The Room has high ceilings and feels like an extraordinary space with great attention to detail. Plenty of towels and drinks are provided, making the sauna and open-air bath very comfortable. At dinner, we enjoyed the meal in a magical atmosphere while receiving careful explanations of the ingredients; not only was everything delicious, but we could also feel the local pride, reminding us again how many great foods Mie Prefecture has to offer. Breakfast was a Japanese set meal in a separate building, and after the meal they kindly prepared coffee for us to take back to the Room. It was a wonderful Accommodation with impeccable service—we would love to return next time and try a different Room.

The view from the room’s large, open windows is breathtaking. You can even see the leaves just beginning to turn, and it’s a scene you could watch forever. Dinner was served by the window as well, and we enjoyed it at dusk with the chorus of autumn insects as background music. The dishes featured mainly local ingredients, and everything was delicious—you could really tell each item had been carefully prepared with time and care. The abalone at dinner and the octopus at breakfast were simmered to a perfect tenderness, and the seafood in particular—soft-shelled turtle soup, sweet shrimp, blackthroat seaperch (nodoguro), and more—was outstanding. The sake paired with the meal was an exceptional selection that you likely rarely come across, and it matched perfectly all the way through to the final dish of beef simmered with Japanese peppercorns; we thoroughly enjoyed that pairing as well. The hot spring was also wonderfully comfortable—at just the right temperature that you can stay in for ages. It rained unfortunately the next day, but while waiting for the shuttle bus we heard a chorus of frogs from somewhere (they really do sing in unison!), which was soothing too. We’ll be back again.

From the moment we arrived until we departed, every moment was comfortable and truly luxurious. We were delighted with everything—the atmosphere, the room, the bath, and the meals—but above all, the attentive hospitality and thoughtful care from all of the staff made us want to return again. I am left-handed, and at dinner on the first night I moved my chopstick rest myself. Then at breakfast the next morning, my chopstick rest had been set up for a left-handed guest, which truly moved me...! Thank you so much for noticing even such a small detail.

I stayed again at my favorite Tamaya Ryokan on October 9. As always, everything was impeccably clean, and from the moment I entered the room I was able to relax and enjoy a comfortable stay. I was soothed by the warm hospitality of all the staff. It was right in matsutake season, so the matsutake dishes at dinner were outstanding. I look forward to visiting again during the season of fresh greenery.

We had a truly wonderful stay. That said, this may be minor, but I’d like to mention two points I noticed. 1. It would be great if the bath towels and other linens were upgraded to ones more fitting for a top-tier ryokan. 2. The razor was a premium five-blade type for an accommodation, but the handle was a bit too thick and difficult to use when shaving upward. Even so, it was an excellent ryokan and we were very satisfied.

The bath, the meals, and the hospitality were all perfect. We would love to stay again if we have the opportunity.

The scent of the old wooden building, the creaking wooden corridors and stairs, and the historic furnishings really conveyed the charm of this ryokan founded in the Edo period. The sound of the river flowing in front was also soothing. We were able to enjoy our meal in a private room overlooking the garden, and had a wonderful time.

It was unusual to switch to socks throughout the entire property after check-in, but it was very comfortable for my travel-weary feet and I really appreciated it. Unnecessary items were kept to a minimum, while essentials like the down duvet and bath towels were high quality. Thanks to that, I slept very well. There was water for each guest and peach jelly in the room, which was a nice touch. The large public bath was also very clean. The open-air bath was fun because we could hear dinosaur calls. I was happy to have so many small breakfast dishes to choose from.

We stayed here after hearing the pork cutlet ramen was delicious, and my wife and I enjoyed it for lunch. The pork cutlet ramen was excellent, and the beef bowl we ordered as well was also outstanding. We booked the lounge plan, and after lunch we visited the lounge; both the drinks and light meals were wonderful and very tasty. The Japanese set breakfast had a wide variety of dishes and was delicious as well. The service, meals, room, and view were all superb, and my wife immediately asked to come again. It’s about an hour door-to-door from our home, but we will definitely visit again to enjoy a special getaway. Thank you very much.

We used this for our annual family trip. My father had stayed here a long time ago, so it brought back great memories and we all got excited. The food was delicious, and we really enjoyed the Kero sauna and the pool. It was also nice that swimsuits were available to borrow! It seemed like the humidifier was broken... that was the only disappointment, but everything else was great.

The atmosphere of the main building was wonderful. Maintaining such a historic building must take a lot of effort, so I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and well kept it was. This time we chose the newer wing where we could enjoy the Onsen in our Room, but next time I would love to stay in one of the lovely Rooms in the main building, such as Sanraku or Kumoi. Dinner and drinks were delicious, and being able to enjoy them in our Room made it feel truly luxurious. All of the staff were genuinely kind and welcoming, and we made great summer memories. We will definitely come again.

The bath and hot spring were beautifully maintained, and we appreciated the thoughtful hospitality, including wet chopsticks, as well as the delicious seasonal cuisine. Thanks to the attentive service from all the staff, we had a very comfortable stay. It was our first visit in a while, and everything—the room setup, the meals, and the service from all the staff—had been improved even further. It has become an even more wonderful place to stay.

We stayed here in October 2026 while visiting from Kyoto. As you would expect from a traditional ryokan with kaiseki dining, everything was exceptional—not only the flavor and presentation of the dishes, but also the perfect timing and the attentive service. It felt like dining at a fine restaurant in Kyoto, and we truly enjoyed a relaxing, memorable time. From welcome to farewell, we were grateful for the thoughtful hospitality and attention to detail that you rarely find at larger hotels. We would love to stay again when we visit Hakodate.

Surrounded by magnificent nature, with breathtaking sunsets and a sky full of stars, I was able to forget everyday life and feel truly refreshed. The hot spring and sauna were outstanding, and the meals were delicious—I was completely satisfied. If you dislike insects, please be aware, but it didn’t bother me at all; I had an exceptional stay.

We were satisfied with everything—the room size, the private bath, the hospitality, and the meals. Thanks to you, we were able to spend a relaxing and restful night. Thank you very much. It was a wonderful inn, just as described in the reviews.
