รีวิวและความประทับใจจากผู้เข้าพักที่ Kaiseki Ryokan Ashikari

It was an accommodation that fulfilled both mind and body.

This was our first time using this accommodation. With my due date in two months, we decided to splurge a little for what would be our last trip as a couple. 【Room (Hase)】 The room had a spacious feel with floor-to-ceiling glass windows. In addition to chairs for the tatami area, there were also high chairs both indoors and on the terrace, allowing me as an expectant mother to relax comfortably. The view from the private open-air bath was stunning, and listening to the birdsong made us feel like we were in another world. My usually busy husband was able to unwind completely and even said it was "the most refreshing morning of his life." 【Staff】 We were deeply moved by the staff's thoughtful hospitality. They listened attentively to our casual conversations during meals and joined in at just the right moments with helpful suggestions or friendly remarks. When I mentioned liking freshly made onsen manju during a conversation, they kindly informed us about a nearby shop where we could try some (and they were absolutely delicious). Even foreign staff members impressed us with their polite service and fluent Japanese delivered with warm smiles. 【Meals】 Both breakfast and dinner featured exquisite dishes befitting this fine kaiseki-style inn. Despite my allergies and pregnancy-related dietary restrictions requiring many adjustments, they crafted an alternative menu that exceeded all expectations—leaving us thoroughly satisfied! Not only did everything taste amazing but each dish looked beautiful too; it truly engaged all five senses while dining here! Although I couldn’t enjoy alcohol this time around due to pregnancy restrictions—the extensive drink menu including pairing options sounded delightful. This trip nourished both body & soul—it became an unforgettable experience we'll cherish forever! While not inexpensive by any means—the value far exceeded its cost—and we hope someday soon (perhaps marking another family milestone) will bring us back again! Thank you so much!
