Shiobara Onsen Shionoyu Kashiwaya Ryokan

We stayed here with a couple of friends on the middle day of a three-day holiday weekend. The exterior felt a bit old, but the Room had been well renovated and was clean. In addition to the large public bath, there are six private open-air baths that can be locked, including one beside the gorge.\nWe were able to forget about everyday life and truly enjoy our time as a couple.\nAlthough it is a large Ryokan, it feels like a family-run place and has a warm atmosphere. We plan to stay again.

I stayed here because it is said to be the Ryokan where Kotaro Takamura once stayed.\nThe scenery was beautiful, and I enjoyed the many open-air baths.\nIt is family-run and had a warm, homey atmosphere.
