To everyone at the Hotel, and Nagi—thank you for taking such great care of me. These two nights and three days truly helped me understand the concept of “luxury through simplicity.” It gave me a chance to reset by letting go of built-up fatigue and stress in both body and mind, and to spend unhurried time reflecting on myself. Next time I’ll stay for three nights and four days—and I’ll come see you again!

This was the Accommodation we stayed at on the third day of our 3-night, 4-day trip to Niigata (Sado, Murakami Senami, and Niigata City). We were very pleased with the Shuttle Service, the staff’s hospitality, and the delicious dinner (the sashimi was especially fresh, and the salmon chanchan-yaki and ochazuke were outstanding). If I had to mention one thing, there were quite a few salty items at breakfast, so I think it would be fine to have fewer dishes. The bath was a little hot, but it left us feeling refreshed and invigorated afterward. It felt like a great value—an Accommodation where you can stay this comfortably even at an affordable price. We would love to stay here again if we have the chance.

Our stay coincided with the traditional event "Owatari" in Shinojima. At check-in, we were informed that there would be a time when the entire island turns off its lights to align with the gods' procession. For about 20 minutes during dinner, the lights went out, and we enjoyed our meal using the provided candlelight and our phone lights. Although it was surprising at first, it turned out to be a rare and enjoyable experience. As mentioned in reviews, the food was delicious, and the facility was impeccably clean. Overall, it was a very satisfying stay.

Aoki Ryokan is a charming blend of Western and Japanese styles, with its blue roof and distinctive design—an Accommodation that gave me a great feeling even before I stepped inside. Fresh flowers were casually arranged throughout, the floors were spotless, and everything was impeccably clean. Perhaps because it is an old Ryokan, the atmosphere felt wonderfully balanced and calm. I usually suffer from insomnia when staying away from home, but here I felt completely at ease and slept very deeply—something that surprised even me. I also enjoyed listening to the proprietress’s stories (including one about Kunio Inatani, a pioneer of skiing in Japan) and savoring meals filled with mountain vegetables. It was truly relaxing both physically and mentally. As this is a historic Ryokan, old tools once used are also displayed; I was especially struck by the large saw used to cut ice from Lake Onuma, which made me imagine how demanding that work must have been at the time. To everyone at Aoki Ryokan, thank you for such a pleasant stay. Tokyo – Mariko

I had a wonderful time with my grandchild. I truly appreciated the thoughtful care of the staff.

I stayed here again for the first time in a year with my sister and my 95-year-old mother. We requested the same top-floor Room as last year, with a private bath. The bath is filled with Onsen water, and since my mother’s legs have weakened and she can’t go to the large public bath, our main purpose was to let her soak in the Onsen. Another highlight is the wonderful service from the female staff at the dining venue—warm, pleasant, and truly excellent. The meals are of course delicious too (haha)! The only drawback is that the lounge in the first-floor lobby is not barrier-free. It would be perfect if there were a ramp.

This was my first time visiting Yoshino. The cherry blossoms had not yet started to bloom, but we were shown to a Room with a wonderful view of the Ryokan’s courtyard. I can imagine how spectacular it must be when the blossoms are in full bloom. The meals (dinner and breakfast) were very delicious. The Onsen was just right, and I could enjoy it as many times as I liked without feeling unwell from the hot water.

With our 2- and 4-year-old sons, we often have to be extra careful when traveling, but at this Accommodation we were able to enjoy meals and bathing without worrying about others thanks to the in-Room dining Plan and the private bath. We were told it was a mountain-side Room with no ocean view, but a staff member mentioned that “you may be able to see storks from the window,” and our animal-loving kids happily enjoyed the view from the window. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious, and we were glad as a couple that we could eat at a relaxed pace. All of the staff were kind to our children as well, and we would definitely like to stay here again when we visit Kinosaki!

All the other guests besides me were international visitors. Many were travelers from Europe rather than Asia, and everyone had a calm, relaxed demeanor, which made my stay very comfortable. The bath was used as a private bath on a time-slot basis. I assumed this system might be in place because there are many international guests, but after trying it, I found it to be a wonderful luxury—allowing me to enjoy quiet, private time at my own pace. The meals were also excellent, making for a highly satisfying stay. This time I stayed in a Room with an irori hearth. It was spacious and full of character—a lovely Room—but perhaps due to the season, I noticed a slight damp, mold-like smell. Even in summer, measures such as lighting the irori for a short time to reduce indoor humidity might make the stay even more comfortable. Overall, it was very cozy Accommodation and one I would like to visit again.

My wife’s favorite. A wonderful Accommodation that makes you want to come back again and again. This was our third stay, including Reservations made by my wife. This time it was a gift from me. It’s truly exceptional every time, so I wanted to leave a Review. Our usual way of spending time here is enjoying authentic organic coffee brewed with the espresso machine in the Room. Sipping coffee while looking down over the terraced rice fields through the large window of the tatami room, we both forgot about our phones and were able to relax for the first time in a while. Breakfast was also outstanding: rice harvested from the terraced fields right in front of us, cooked in a clay pot. The miso soup made with additive-free black soybean miso and dried-sardine broth felt gentle on the body, and this simple yet carefully prepared meal is something we truly appreciate. Although the sky was unfortunately cloudy this time, the earthy scent after the rain and the lush, misty view of the terraced fields were beautiful—we could have watched it forever. At night, a few fireflies drifted softly through the air, and my wife and I were moved by how magical it felt. Another great memory was chatting casually with the landowner who came by to check on the rice paddies; we learned about local life and culture. It warmed my heart to realize that this beautiful nature is preserved thanks to such careful stewardship by people in the community. A staff member told us that “the Milky Way in July and even midwinter starry skies are beautiful,” so next time we’d love to visit in another season with stargazing in mind. Thank you again for another wonderful stay.

It was our first time staying in a cultural heritage property, and it was a valuable experience for our children as well—we were able to enter places we normally wouldn’t, such as the tea room, Noh stage, and storehouse. It also allowed us to take a three-generation trip with our parents, who preferred not to travel far due to physical limitations, and we made wonderful memories.

This was my second visit to Izumo Taisha, and my first stay at Yunokawa. I chose it for the private bath that can be used anytime. It was a wonderful private bath, and I was very satisfied. For dinner, I ordered Shimane beef. I didn’t know much about it and simply wanted to try something local, but it was incredibly delicious. I was also impressed by how kind every staff member was. I would like to stay at this Hotel again the next time I visit Izumo.

This is the Accommodation I stayed at for my fan activities. It had a retro, very calming atmosphere. When I told the staff it was for fan activities, they prepared the same yukata that my favorites had worn (they said it’s not in use now, though). For meals, we had tofu dishes and additionally ordered beef shabu-shabu, which was very filling. A river runs alongside the property, and rather than a gentle babble it sounded more like heavy rain (maybe because it had rained the day before?), but it still felt refreshing in its own way. The Onsen left my skin smooth and kept me warm. I regret not being able to join the morning service due to lack of time, but it became a wonderful memory. Thank you for taking care of us.

We stayed at the accommodation during our family trip to Kyoto. Each dish was carefully prepared and delicious. The hospitality was also excellent. We would definitely like to stay here again next time.

Used with No Meals Included. I was surprised by how silky the Onsen water was—it was wonderful! It was so good that I woke up early and took a morning bath as well. It’s not close enough to visit often, but I’d love to stay again if I have the chance.

During the Obon holiday, we spontaneously decided on a trip to Iwate and were lucky to find availability for accommodation. We stayed as a couple in a luxurious traditional Japanese house located on the site of an old castle. We bought local ingredients and sake from a nearby supermarket and enjoyed cooking ourselves. The joy of savoring fresh vegetables and meat we personally selected is one of the unique pleasures of having the entire place to ourselves. The facility provided plenty of dishes and glasses for use. For breakfast, complimentary homemade crispy green peppers, eggplants, rice, and more were offered. The kitchen and bathroom facilities are modern and comfortable. The surroundings are incredibly quiet, with sounds of insects at night and birds in the morning creating a nostalgic countryside atmosphere. As someone who grew up in an old countryside house myself, I found many inspiring ideas for renovations here. The owner was kind throughout our stay while maintaining just the right amount of distance for comfort. This is a place that makes you want to return every year. Thank you very much!

I surprised my wife, who loves the countryside, with a stay here. She was very happy and said she’d like to come back next time with her parents.

I’m always satisfied with the seasonal dishes. The sweetfish sashimi and salt-grilled sweetfish were delicious. The charcoal-grilled Omi beef I love was also outstanding. For breakfast, the proprietress’s homemade mountain-vegetable side dishes were perfect with the tasty rice. A quiet Accommodation where you can truly escape from everyday life.

It was a wonderful Accommodation with an excellent Onsen. We had our meals at the restaurant, and each dish was carefully prepared and tasted superb. The tableware also enhanced the presentation of the cuisine, making it feel even more delicious. We would love to visit again.

It’s not in the Onsen town, but it’s within walking distance. The food was delicious, and the bath on the top floor was also great. The Facility was clean, and everything was good right through to the final send-off. It made me want to visit Gero Onsen again.
