[From Check-in to the Room] We arrived by car and were warmly welcomed. After check-in, we were escorted to our Room while enjoying tea and sweets. [Attractions] We chose one of the two activities and whisked matcha ourselves, then enjoyed tea on the Sky Corridor for a perfect digital detox. There was also a surprise arranged by my wife and the staff for me, which truly moved me—thank you so much. [Dinner] As the title suggests, the meal featured carefully selected ingredients gathered along the Tokaido route and a strong focus on water quality. We’ve enjoyed excellent cuisine at many places (Sekaie, Miwa, Karaku, Mayufutahari, Honbako, Hoshino Resorts, etc.), but this surpassed them all. From the dashi to rice served multiple ways with different textures and aromas, everything delighted all five senses—and our conversation with the staff made time fly by. Personally, I especially loved the rare bonito cutlet and Tajima-Gen beef shabu-shabu with chilled chawanmushi. [Breakfast] It began with wake-up tea. We had two kinds of dried fish (including horse mackerel), both outstanding. As with dinner, rice cooked in a clay pot was excellent—not only as white rice but also as crispy scorched rice enjoyed in hot water (“kogashi-yu”), which was a new discovery for us. Personally, I especially enjoyed the dried fish and simmered vegetables. [Room] A functional Room with thoughtful touches such as aroma oil for stone warming and three types of tea. Since it’s designed for digital detoxing there is no TV. We relaxed slowly in the semi-open-air bath in our Room. [Service] Everyone provided exceptional service—from those who helped arrange our surprise from Reservation through arrival day, to those who whisked matcha together with us as beginners; from dinner service by someone who shared my wife’s name to breakfast staff who kindly accommodated an unexpected request. Each moment became a lasting memory. [Overall] We will definitely return—next time in autumn or spring would be ideal. With such comfortable hospitality from everyone here, this Accommodation is deeply soothing and easy to recommend. Since it has only recently opened up: personally speaking it would be nice to have insect screens on the outer windows by the semi-open-air bath; also given how much care goes into tea and ingredients it might be great to have a small space where guests can buy souvenirs such as tea leaves teaware or dried fish as keepsakes.

This Hotel, renovated from a merchant house over 170 years old, offers a unique and charming atmosphere. While the building retains its historical essence, the guest rooms and facilities are clean and designed for comfort, ensuring a pleasant stay. There was no television in the room; instead, magazines and books related to Nagasaki and Shimabara were provided. These were fascinating reads that enhanced the sense of escape from daily life. In fact, I even noted down some authors and titles of books I couldn't finish. What stood out most was how friendly and approachable the staff were. They shared many stories about Shimabara, making my time there truly special. Breakfast was produced by "Oryouri Madoka," their partner restaurant. The carefully prepared dishes were incredibly delicious—especially the rice cooked in an earthen pot, which had an unforgettable taste with perfectly textured grains. Any leftovers were kindly made into rice balls for me to take along on my journey home. This time I chose a breakfast-included Plan but learned that dinner by "Oryouri Madoka" is also available with another Plan. I would love to try it next time! Although my stay in Shimabara lasted only 24 hours, it was filled with rich experiences. Thank you very much!

Although we arrived late, we had informed them in advance, and they kindly accepted our Reservation. Also, for a whole-house rental Accommodation, it was rare to have breakfast included: the rice cooker was set so the rice would be ready at 6:00 a.m., and miso soup was prepared in a thermos in the refrigerator so it could be enjoyed after warming—an excellent Japanese breakfast. The Facility’s interior was stylish and reflected the owner’s great sense of design, making our stay very comfortable. Since we were traveling with children, we did not use the kura bed and instead laid futons in the same Room; however, it would have been even better if the futon set were a bit softer. The location is also great—just a short walk away on a quiet side street off the main road of the Bikan Historical Quarter—so you can relax peacefully at night. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kurashiki.

It was my first visit to Mitarai in a year. This Accommodation, with a tea room that perfectly matches the old townscape, was wonderfully relaxing and I was very satisfied.

A serene Accommodation surrounded by rows of trees. With spacious hallways and a limited number of Rooms, we rarely encountered other guests and were able to relax and enjoy a peaceful stay.

The room was very comfortable, the food was delicious, and the Onsen was excellent. I had a luxurious time. I would love to stay again.

I stayed for one night with a friend. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen, knitting while watching dramas, and spending time at a relaxed pace surrounded by nature! The cabin was well-equipped with various utensils and seasonings, which was very convenient. Additionally, the distance from neighboring cabins allowed us to enjoy our stay without worrying about others. I would love to visit other SANU locations as well!

It was hard to find a place where I could bring my dog, but staying together in Kyoto without any worries made me very happy. We had dinner at a nearby restaurant and only requested breakfast, but the bread was delicious and satisfying. I apologize for taking extra time during check-out due to packing and tidying up. I would love to visit again!

We stayed here as a couple this time. Rather than just a place to sleep, it felt like a place to reset ourselves. I naturally spent less time on my phone—relaxing on the balcony while listening to birds and the wind, soaking in the bath, making tea, and taking things slow. That alone made my mind surprisingly clear. It’s also a resort Facility that offers a variety of nature experiences, with the lakeside about a 5-minute walk away. What impressed me wasn’t luxury, but how thoughtfully it’s designed so you can truly enjoy doing nothing. By checkout, not only my body but even my mind felt lighter.

I stayed here on my first solo trip. It was a comfortable space where I could relax and take my time. Thank you very much.

This was our second stay, and we visited as a couple. Once again we stayed in the WEST building (my favorite, with a stone sauna). It’s a private villa-style Accommodation with high walls, so you can relax without worrying about the surroundings. When we opened the door, even the long hallway was nicely heated and warm, and the living room was cozy too. And this time there were complimentary drinks in the fridge—Pocari Sweat, mineral water, Perrier, and more—which was a lovely added service! The new cold plunge pool had been filled with hot water this time, so we could soak slowly as if it were an open-air bath—it felt amazing. Part of it is deep enough to submerge up to your neck, so you do need to be careful, but it was a bath experience you don’t often find elsewhere. And another major new addition—the cave-like sauna we’d been looking forward to—lets you lie down inside; my sauna-loving husband was thrilled and said the tea löyly aroma was wonderful. This time we also booked an on-site private chef for the first time. Dinner started with appetizers and soup, followed by sea bream with perfectly crisped skin served with an orange butter sauce; the wagyu came with nori and a red wine sauce—everything tasted incredible. The strawberry mille-feuille dessert and fromage blanc ice cream were outstanding!! We were completely satisfied being able to savor such a luxurious course at our own pace. Breakfast was also very filling: a generously stuffed sandwich, two kinds of quiche, plus strawberries and yogurt—an excellent professional-quality meal that we fully enjoyed. Everything was delicious. We were also impressed by how gently the chef explained each dish (almost like whispering) and how smoothly everything came together. The stylish black-themed space and interior are wonderful every time we visit. The latest Facilities and high-end appliances can take some getting used to if you don’t read the manuals carefully, but everything—from tableware to decor—is tasteful, making it easy to spend special time comfortably at your own pace. Just one thing: I mistakenly thought the chef would arrive at 16:00; in reality they arrived at 17:30 and dinner started at 18:30. I regret not confirming in advance—I might have been able to enjoy my beloved stone sauna a bit more while waiting. Highly recommended for anyone who loves saunas or stone saunas—and for those who want a special dining experience in an extraordinary setting! We stayed last time at the end of summer and had great fun using the pool at night too, so we’d love to come again in summer.

I had previously visited for a day-trip Onsen, and the rich, silky water that seemed to cling to my skin felt incredibly soothing—it left a lasting impression. After that, whenever I saw posts on social media about the renovation, I kept thinking, “I’d love to go again,” but I hesitated because weekends seemed like they would be crowded. Then I learned that overnight guests receive Miyakonjo Meat Vouchers worth JPY 3,000 per person, which can be used at the on-site restaurant “Heike no Sato”! That was also one of the reasons we decided to stay. Since we were going anyway, we thought we’d stay overnight and fully enjoy the Onsen—and I also wanted it to be a special trip with my elderly mother. Choosing a Room was honestly difficult. I really wanted a Room with a private open-air bath, but there’s only one of those Rooms available, and every weekend this month was already fully booked! It’s clearly very popular. After much deliberation, we chose the Room called “Iwa.” And it turned out to be absolutely the right choice! It was far more spacious than expected, and the comfortable bed made for an excellent night’s sleep. My mother also loved it, saying it had a calm atmosphere and was spacious and easy to move around in. The selection of loan pillows and amenities was great as well. The loan pillow in particular was very comfortable—I highly recommend trying one. And of course—the Onsen we were most looking forward to. The smooth, slightly thick water met our expectations perfectly; after bathing my skin felt wonderfully moisturized, so it’s easy to see why people call it an Onsen for beautiful skin. As an overnight guest benefit: while general admission starts at 7:00 AM, guests can use the Onsen from 6:30 AM. We woke up early and enjoyed a relaxing soak in an almost private atmosphere. This time slot is truly recommended. The free massage chairs are also highly recommended. All of the staff were very kind. The front desk team answered every question carefully and thoroughly, which made our stay very pleasant. That warm hospitality is definitely one of this Accommodation’s charms. “Heike no Sato” was also excellent! Thanks to the Miyakonjo Meat Vouchers (JPY 3,000 per person), we were able to enjoy delicious meat that we don’t often get the chance to eat—highly recommended as well. From the Onsen and Room to the views and staff hospitality—everything about this stay exceeded our expectations.

We stayed for one night with our child (6 years old) and relatives. The moment we entered the Room, we were surrounded by the scent of hinoki cypress and instantly felt relaxed. The amenities and Facility were all stylish, and we were able to spend our time feeling truly pampered. I usually really dislike typical Hotel pajamas (the comfort...) and hair dryers (the airflow just isn’t enough for thick hair...), but at hon, both were not only fine—they were genuinely impressive! I even checked the price of the pajamas online to buy them for home, and it made perfect sense. We were told in advance that “due to the structure, sound can carry easily,” and I did notice some noise from upstairs as I was falling asleep. That said, it’s really just luck, so if you think it might bother you, bringing earplugs could be a good idea. Overall, I felt this Accommodation is more suited for adults, but surprisingly my 6-year-old son seemed to like it the most (lol). The staff were also very pleasant, and we had a comfortable stay. Thank you very much.

This Accommodation has only five Rooms, yet it has two private baths, and you can use them anytime if they are available. I used them four times. The hot water was excellent. It’s a 4-minute walk to Yubatake, but there are many slopes, so it was great to relax in the Accommodation’s private baths. There is also a convenience store nearby. The breakfast was generous and delicious! All the staff were very kind.

We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days with two adults and one dog. The high ceiling created an amazing sense of openness the moment we entered the Room, and the greenery spreading across the windows was even more beautiful than we imagined! We had a relaxing time cooking with ingredients bought at a local supermarket, listening to music, and unwinding—it was truly refreshing. We would love to stay again.

We used this accommodation for my son and his wife's first visit home after their wedding, as they wanted to go to Kyoto. Since we wanted separate bedrooms, we reserved a detached house. Although there were no reviews available and I was a bit anxious, it turned out to be excellent! It was a wonderful accommodation that combined an old-fashioned nostalgic feel with cozy rooms and well-equipped facilities. The underfloor heating in the Japanese-style room was fantastic and gave us some ideas for renovations. Unlike a hotel, there was a kitchen where our family could enjoy cooking and eating together—it was so much fun! The parking location was hard to find, which caused some confusion, but since it allowed free entry and exit even after checkout, it was very convenient for sightseeing. Next time, I’d love to stay in the main building too!

Thank you very much for having us stay at your Accommodation. It was a 3-day, 2-night stay, and thanks to you, I was able to relax and spend quality time with my girlfriend. Thank you for your heartfelt letter. We will visit again, and we appreciate your continued support. Please take good care of yourself.

Used for a one-night solo motorcycle trip. You’ll be surprised—“An Accommodation in a place like this?”—but inside it’s extremely clean: the Room, bath, and kitchen. It seems a calligraphy teacher relaxes here; there are probably artistic calligraphy works displayed throughout. Room: A bit plain. Basement? Downstairs? No light from the window, no TV—great if you want to clear your mind. Bath: Simply the best. Owner: Not too close, not too distant—very gentle and kind. Location: Honestly, I worried about bears, but they said none have appeared around here. That’s how surrounded by greenery it is. Food: For dinner I went to a nearby Genghis Khan (lamb BBQ) restaurant—delicious!! Though the owner there was… maybe not so much. “Nearby” still means about 700 m; I was scared of bears so I went at 17:30. You can get refills and it really is tasty! But the Accommodation kitchen has everything you could need—I made breakfast there. Overall: The top rating makes sense. This price is unbelievable. I hope someone who reads this will decide to visit. *At the nearby Pine Bar? shop, their iburigakko is half the price compared with outside; the shop owner is wonderful too. Please stop by.*

We stayed as a group of five friends. The location and rooms were excellent. It was great to be able to walk to Kiyomizu Temple in about 10 minutes early in the morning, allowing us to enjoy a peaceful visit before it got crowded. The Japanese-style living room provided a relaxing space, perfect for resting after a long day. We would definitely love to stay here again!

The host was very hospitable and took great care of us. We left our luggage, went out, and when we returned, they kindly sent it to our next accommodation. We are truly grateful for the help. Other rooms were occupied by foreign guests. It was so quiet that we found ourselves being extra cautious not to make noise. I thought there might not be pajamas provided, so I brought my own, but there were one-piece pajamas available. Bringing leggings might be a good idea as well. The bath set included Shiseido products, which made my hair silky smooth. Thank you very much for your hospitality!
