The Room, meals, bath, and service were all extremely satisfying. The water was so delicious that I drank too much—on the way home, you may want to be careful as you might need to use the restroom more often.

I stayed here during Golden Week, and the moment I stepped onto the grounds, I felt, “This is a wonderful Accommodation.” Perhaps it’s because the proprietress pays close attention to every detail. It’s a truly pleasant place to stay. Because there are only a few guest parties, the staff is also small in number, but they provided attentive service. Needless to say, the food was outstanding. I wasn’t traveling specifically for branded wagyu; I’m the type who prefers to carefully choose and enjoy truly delicious food. Still, it’s rare to find an Accommodation where you can enjoy such a wide variety of cuts prepared in the best possible way for each one. As expected from Oki of Yonezawa beef. The Onsen is relatively small, but since there are few guests, I was able to have it all to myself whenever I went—and the water is excellent. Thank you for such wonderful memories.

We stayed at this Ryokan for my parents’ therapeutic hot-spring retreat. It’s a Ryokan that’s difficult to reach without a car, but it had a wonderful atmosphere. The staff were especially kind, and we truly enjoyed our stay. My elderly parents were delighted with the nostalgic Japanese-style room. There are many stairs inside the Accommodation, and my father, whose legs have started to weaken, had a bit of difficulty walking around the building. We had breakfast, and it was delicious Japanese food that left us completely full.

We stayed on a Saturday during a pleasant season, and luckily I was able to use the Yudaki bath and the private family bath a total of four times all by myself. Being able to use them throughout the night and around dawn is a big plus. The Accommodation staff were kind, and the other guests were considerate as well, so even with shared toilets and washbasins—and slightly thin walls—I had no issues and stayed very comfortably. Along with the soothing calls of birds (and maybe frogs?), I thought I could also hear something like snoring from somewhere, but I brought earplugs just in case and slept soundly. (Ambient sounds are unavoidable, so I have no complaints at all; my companion, who is a light sleeper, noticed it a bit but didn’t take any precautions—so I’m sharing this as a reference.) In any case, this is a wonderful historic Accommodation; walks to nearby waterfalls are great, the cats are adorable, and the meals are delicious. It’s an Accommodation where you can feel thoughtful care everywhere you look.

This was my first stay, and not only was the Onsen excellent, but the meals were far better than I expected—I was truly impressed. The carp sashimi seemed to be a specialty, and it had no strong taste at all; it paired perfectly with vinegared miso and was delicious. Every dish went wonderfully with sake, and I also enjoyed comparing different types of sake. By the time the sukiyaki arrived at the end I was already full, but the beef was so good I somehow still had room for it. This has become a favorite Accommodation that I’d love to visit again.

We stayed here with two people for an overnight snowboarding trip to Tengendai Kogen Ski Resort. After a full day on the slopes, they served us must-have snacks for drinks, and we enjoyed a toast. Then we took a bath; the tub is a bit small for two adults at once, but taking turns was no problem. They also make sure guests don’t overlap. The dinner menu that day featured Yonezawa’s specialty Yoshitsune-yaki (Genghis Khan), and there were also appetizers like oden and pork miso soup—satisfaction level 120%! After returning to the Room, there wasn’t much to do, so I thought it would be nice to have at least a TV. Still, we had another satisfying breakfast the next morning, enjoyed coffee, and headed to the slopes with plenty of time—no need to line up for the ropeway. We’ll definitely stay again.
