Naniwa Issui

We were welcomed at the entrance, completed a seated check-in, and when we arrived on our Room floor, the lovely aroma (bergamot) made us feel wonderful. Our Room was upgraded for us. The open-air bath in the Room was spacious and very relaxing. The large public bath was also excellent. Dinner was delicious from start to finish. The Shimane wine as an aperitif was so good that we also had a glass of white wine—and the tasting of three local sakes was outstanding. The meal included wagyu simmered in wine, simmered nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch), Shimane wagyu shabu-shabu, and unameshi—all incredibly tasty. I was completely full and thought I could only manage dessert, but I ended up finishing everything. So full! Breakfast was also wonderful—the freshly grilled overnight-dried conger eel was amazing. And my favorite treat, the shijimi clam miso soup, had large clams and a light flavor; it naturally made me let out an “ah,” like something out of Bakébaké-style folklore. All of the staff were polite and kind, and we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. It turned into a great trip, and we would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

As we live in Saitama, we cannot travel again anytime soon, but we would love to visit again. The hospitality was truly wonderful, and everything—from the souvenir shop and large public bath to the Room, the view, and the meals—was simply delicious. We also enjoyed the beautiful presentation and tableware. The Room was thoroughly cleaned, so we could relax with complete peace of mind. From the bath in our Room, we had an exclusive view of Lake Shinji all to ourselves. The Japanese sweets prepared in the Room were also very delicious. We were able to unwind both physically and mentally. Thank you very much. We would love to visit again.
