Otoginoyado Yoneya

A long-held wish has finally come true, and I am truly delighted that I was at last able to visit Komeya.As soon as I stepped inside the Ryokan, I was greeted by beautifully arranged seasonal flowers—elegant yet vibrant—and their beauty brought me a sense of calm.During my stay, I was able to forget the busyness of everyday life and spend genuinely relaxing time. Being able to unwind like this for the first time in a while was a truly happy experience for me.Recently, I have often stayed at Hotels for work, but this visit reminded me anew of the unique charm of a Ryokan and the wonderful warmth of heartfelt hospitality. The time I spent at Komeya became something special that gently soothed my mind.I was also deeply moved by the staff’s sincere and caring service. It left a strong impression on me to see how everyone takes pride in their work and engages with guests with such composure. Each warm smile and thoughtful gesture healed both body and mind.I was also very happy to meet Sekine-sama by chance. Being able to see you became one of the lovely memories of this stay, and it gave me even more reason to look forward to visiting Komeya again.The free-flowing Onsen were all wonderful—the large public bath, open-air bath, and natural spring mist sauna—and they left me feeling refreshed in both body and spirit. Above all, the free-flowing Onsen bath in my Room was exceptional; I enjoyed soaking many times during my stay, leaving my skin moisturized and smooth as well as allowing me to fully appreciate how wonderful an Onsen can be. The footbath was also extremely comfortable, offering another peaceful moment of relaxation.Each dish was beautifully presented, and I savored them slowly while enjoying the natural flavors of seasonal ingredients. The tableware also had an elegant beauty that enhanced each course even further. The fairytale theme—where a story unfolded with every dish—was especially delightful, bringing enjoyment not only visually but emotionally as well. Experiencing such gentle flavors that respect each ingredient made me reflect on my everyday diet; it reminded me that from now on I want to cherish food more carefully and live each day with a calm and kind heart.Since returning home, I have been completely “Komeya-loss.” I cannot forget your heartwarming hospitality or the special time you gave me, and I am already looking forward to the day when I can visit again.As these hot days continue, please take good care of yourselves—I wish everyone continued health.Thank you very much for everything during this stay.

My wife and I stayed here as part of a retirement celebration trip. Although it was a long weekend and the property was probably fully booked, the hotel was very quiet, and even though we visited the large public bath several times, it felt almost private each time. The silky water with a faint sulfur scent was wonderful. It was my first time trying an Onsen mist sauna, and I really loved it. The bath in our Room was also excellent; at 51°C, once we filled it, you could feel the heat all the way into the Room—proof of how abundant the hot spring source is. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious and more than filling, with dinner themed around “The Three Little Pigs.” We were also very satisfied just with the complimentary drinks: sparkling wine at welcome drinks, sake in the café area, and beer in our Room. After dinner, my wife and I had massages, but they felt so good that we slept through most of them. Thank you so much to all the staff. It was a truly restful stay and a wonderful memory. We would love to return again.
