신촌역 × 선의 세계관이 느껴지는 숙소식사의 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

As always, the meals were delicious, and the Onsen was gentle on the body with a perfect temperature. It was also my first time dining in a second-floor private dining Room, and the open atrium made it easy to appreciate the main building’s traditional architecture. However, this time the meal service was a bit disappointing: tea didn’t come unless we asked for it, and the explanations of the dishes were hard to follow. I understand they may still be inexperienced, but for an Accommodation that values its cuisine, I hope more care will be taken in how guests are attended to during meals. That said, it’s still an Accommodation I would definitely like to visit again.

I made a Reservation without doing much research because it looked good, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. The nostalgic charm of the Showa era is beautifully balanced with modern Facilities, making the stay extremely comfortable. All of the staff were genuinely kind and welcoming—the hospitality was outstanding. The meals were also delicious; even though I’m on a diet, I finished dinner and was completely full. Breakfast felt lighter (not small in portion), and perhaps because it was Japanese-style, my weight didn’t increase much, which was a relief. The private bath doesn’t require a Reservation—if it’s available, you can use it—so I enjoyed it twice without any hassle. Since the number of guests per day is limited, it was quiet with a calm, adult atmosphere, and I could truly relax. Thank you very much.

We stayed here with a large group in January. First of all, the traditional kura-style building is truly one of a kind. It has been beautifully renovated to suit modern needs while preserving the charm of classic Japanese architecture. It’s even more impressive in person than in photos, and you can really enjoy the building itself—perfect for anyone who loves architecture. The living room feels incredibly open, and even with a big group it never felt cramped. The kitchen was surprisingly spacious, and it was stocked with more than enough cookware and appliances. There was also a great variety of tableware, all stylish, which made cooking even more enjoyable. The dishwasher in particular was large and high-performance, making cleanup easy even for a big group. There are multiple bedrooms as well, so everyone can rest comfortably. This Accommodation is ideal for the purpose of “staying together as a large group and relaxing.” Overall it’s very spacious, so we could spend time there without feeling self-conscious. We only ordered breakfast, but it was simple Japanese food and very delicious. For lunch and dinner we arranged our own meals—buying ingredients at nearby supermarkets (Tsuruya and AEON are conveniently close) and cooking ourselves—and that became part of the fun of the stay. With such well-equipped facilities, this place is especially recommended for those who enjoy cooking. Even though it was cold around New Year’s, the inside was warm and comfortable. The separate hinoki bathhouse was amazing; you heat the indoor bath yourself, but the scent of hinoki wood and the atmosphere were truly relaxing. There is also another bath in the main house (with a modern tub), which you can use as well—and we appreciated the thoughtful touch of underfloor heating in the changing area there. We were highly satisfied with everything—the space, facilities, and overall atmosphere—and would love to visit again in a different season.

This was my second stay in two years. The services are minimal, but everything was clean and comfortable enough. I would definitely like to stay here again if I have the chance.
