I had been looking forward to my time in Akayu. I was worried because of the heavy rain, but as soon as we arrived, the warm hospitality put us at ease, and I was able to spend a truly peaceful time with my mother. The meals were beautifully prepared—something to enjoy with all five senses—with gentle, comforting flavors. Above all, thanks to the heartfelt care of the staff, we were able to create wonderful and lasting memories. The Akayu hot spring soothed both body and mind—it was exceptional. This is a ryokan I would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Both the indoor bath and the bath in our Room were fed directly from the source, and we were able to relax and fully enjoy the free-flowing hot spring water while taking in the gentle scent of sulfur—it was incredibly soothing for both body and mind. The atmosphere of the Accommodation was wonderful, and we truly enjoyed every aspect of this long-established Onsen inn. All of the dishes were delicious. In particular, the Yonezawa beef nigiri we had at dinner was so exceptional that we ended up ordering more. We were also impressed by how kind and attentive all of the staff were. The meat served with our meal was so good that when we asked for a recommended local butcher shop, they kindly gave us detailed information—thanks to them, we were able to stop by on our way home and buy some as souvenirs!

I visited with a friend who loves traveling. This was my third stay, and as always, the food was excellent, and the Onsen was amazing. My friend, visiting for the first time, also enjoyed it and went to the bath twice. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This was our first trip traveling with our dog. We were a bit anxious, but when we arrived, even though our dog barked, the staff greeted us with warm smiles and no sign of displeasure, which really put us at ease. Everyone—from the front desk to the dining staff—provided pleasant service, and there wasn’t a single moment that felt uncomfortable.　 The Room had tatami flooring, and it was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The food was delicious; I even ended up eating six pieces of mochi for breakfast! The hot spring water was my favorite type, and the temperature was perfect—not too hot. I just wish the shower pressure had been a bit stronger. We had a wonderful trip.

My spouse and I stayed on 8/5. The Ryokan is located around the middle of the Akayu Onsen town. When we arrived at the entrance on a quiet midsummer afternoon, a lovely proprietress warmly welcomed us. The artworks displayed throughout were truly beautiful and valuable—nostalgic yet mysterious—and it felt like visiting a hidden museum surrounded by mountains. The Onsen baths included a Roman-style bath and a rock bath. Everything was kept very clean, with an artistic atmosphere, and the water was pleasantly hot—it really seemed to help with stiff shoulders and nerve pain. The shower pressure was also excellent. We ate nearby this time, but we heard they offer carefully curated menus. And the Room: a spacious Japanese-style Room, welcome tea and sweets, and a large TV—absolutely satisfying. I also saw comments from others saying the Facility and building feel old, but that’s exactly what makes it special. I hope it can remain as it is for as long as possible. It was an old-fashioned, artistic Ryokan where we could truly relax and feel healed. Thank you very much!
