สถานีมาซากิโอซากิ × อันดับที่พักเด่นด้านอาหารทะเลโรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

Perhaps because it was a cloudy weekday, the Onsen town felt rather quiet and I briefly wondered if everything would be okay, but the Hotel itself was very comfortable. We were upgraded to a spacious Room with a great view, and we were able to relax in a beautifully maintained space. Both dinner and breakfast were generous in portion size, and everything—such as the peach pork stew and Tsuyama beef—was delicious. The dining area was spacious, so we could enjoy our meals in a calm atmosphere. In Japanese-style Rooms, outlets are sometimes tucked away in a corner and can be inconvenient for charging phones, but an extension cord was provided here, which was very helpful. We traveled as a pair this time, but I had never seen another place where a 14-tatami Room that can accommodate up to seven guests had two toilets; I think that is an excellent feature. I also appreciated how thoughtfully the amenities were arranged to avoid waste. The staff were courteous and pleasant as well. We truly enjoyed our Onsen trip for the first time in a while—thank you very much.

I was looking for a highly rated Onsen Ryokan to stay at in Okayama, so I chose this one. It was a great choice. The meals were exactly as described—quality over quantity—and the portions were perfect for older guests. It’s also an all-inclusive property, so I enjoyed a variety of drinks and snacks; the doburoku in particular was excellent. I don’t recall drinking it much before, but it went down smoothly, and next time I think I’ll stick with doburoku after my beer. I’m glad I stayed here.

The room was clean, and it was a lovely property where I could relax and truly enjoy my stay. Dinner was very filling, and I was extremely satisfied. After dinner, there was an event where complimentary sake was served, so I enjoyed comparing different varieties. It was scary when three large centipedes appeared one after another at night, but when I called the front desk they responded immediately, which made me feel reassured. All of the staff were kind and had wonderful smiles, making this a truly enjoyable trip. I also enjoyed the large public bath, the in-room bath, and the courtyard garden—staying here was fantastic. Thank you very much.

We stayed for one night during the Obon holiday period. The front desk staff warmly welcomed us. The Room felt very new and was impeccably clean, so we had a very comfortable stay. It was great to have both yukata and pajamas available. They also quickly exchanged the yukata size for us, which was very helpful. We headed to the bath right away. The large public bath was very clean, and we loved that the shower kept running without having to press the button repeatedly! Bathing while looking at the castle was wonderful. The hair dryers in the changing area were ReFa. The muscat vinegar drink in the post-bath lounge was so delicious that even our children—who usually find fruit vinegar drinks too sour—went back for seconds. Since our Room included lounge access, we used the massage chair there, enjoyed some drinks, and felt refreshed. Also, the bed in our Room was incredibly comfortable—I may have slept better than I ever have while traveling. I think it’s a great fit for those who like pillows that are fluffy, soft, and low-profile. The next morning we had breakfast at Mimasaka Kitchen. We already knew it had a good reputation, but it exceeded our expectations—the lightly seasoned side dishes and wide variety of desserts that weren’t overly sweet were more than satisfying. Even better were the onigiri made by one of the staff members—perfectly light and fluffy—and our whole family couldn’t stop praising them. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with this Accommodation. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us during our stay.

This was a family trip with friends, mainly for the buffet. Both dinner and breakfast offered a wide variety of dishes and were very delicious, but it was disappointing that some items we wanted to eat hot, like fried foods, had cooled down. The bath area may have been during a busy time; there weren’t many washing stations, so it felt crowded. The Room was 10 tatami mats, but once three futons were laid out it did feel a bit small. However, since we came for the buffet and only needed the Room for sleeping, it didn’t bother us much. There was a welcome drink service, so we could relax with tea after arriving until dinner. We would definitely like to come again for the buffet.

Auberge Veressa Yunogo welcomed us with the bright smiles of the female staff. This Accommodation offers blissful, refined moments of true elegance. Everywhere you look is picture-perfect, with tasteful, high-quality furnishings throughout. From the tableware and amenities to the loungewear and slippers in the Room, everything reflects the owner’s impeccable sense of style, attention to detail, and heartfelt hospitality. The bath is available for private use in 1-hour slots and includes a spacious open-air bath. The Facility is new and spotless, and both bath towels and face towels are provided there—no need to bring them from your Room. Dinner was a full-course meal with drink pairings featuring wood-fired cuisine. The moment you bring each dish to your mouth, a gentle aroma of firewood rises—wonderfully fragrant. The venison was tender and unforgettable. The Spanish mackerel was thick-cut: its skin crisped beautifully on the outside while remaining rare inside—an exquisite doneness that changes in flavor and texture depending on where you bite. The Chiya beef had a lightly charred surface seared by an intense burst of flame that acted like a seasoning; inside it was ultra-rare, with subtle marbling whose sweetness and deep meaty umami grew richer with every bite. In these wood-fired dishes, the charred bitterness on the outside intertwines with tenderness and sweetness within—an almost mind-bending contrast. After enjoying generous wines, I returned pleasantly tipsy to my Room; as soon as I lay down on the Simmons bed, its comfort sent me straight into a deep sleep. Breakfast in the restaurant wrapped in soft morning light was just as wonderful—a beautiful spread laid out on an elegant tablecloth. The first glass of Jersey milk tasted especially soothing after a night of drinking. We enjoyed plenty of fresh vegetables, house-made terrine, and local bread. We were so full that we canceled our planned all-you-can-eat Shine Muscat grapes at a nearby farm. Thank you to the owner’s family members who were visiting over the weekend—for tending the garden and explaining dishes at dinner—and also to both staff members for all your thoughtful care during our stay. True to its name—the “Mimasaka Raisan Course”—the cooking draws out each ingredient’s best flavors through careful preparation and seasoning. Watching primal wood-fire flames up close from counter seating—the heat, aroma, and char—speaks directly to all five senses through each ingredient. It may sound dramatic, but it left me grateful for nature’s gifts and for life itself. Combined with comfort far beyond expectations, it remains deeply memorable as a wonderful trip. (Before dinner there was low-frequency vibration inside the Room; one star deducted for Facility/equipment. It dissipated after dinner.)

This is a private rental of a renovated traditional house, very spacious, and overall we had a comfortable stay. The bedroom was cozy, and the bathroom and vanity area were especially large, which made it convenient for two people to get ready at the same time. The lighting was bright and easy to use, insect control indoors was well handled, and we were able to use the Facility without any issues. When we consulted in advance about the check-in time, they kindly accommodated an earlier check-in, which was very helpful. There is also Shuttle Service available, making transportation very convenient. On the other hand, there are two points we would be happy to see improved. First is the height of some beams. For someone around 175 cm tall, a beam sits just above eye level, making it easy to miss—I hit my head several times. Since I hit it quite hard once, for safety it would be reassuring to have warning stickers or signs. Second, in the first-floor bedroom we could hear some road noise from passing cars at night. The second floor was relatively quiet, so those who are sensitive to noise may prefer sleeping upstairs. Other than that, everything was very comfortable and we enjoyed the unique atmosphere of a traditional house.

We stayed at “Yuzu no Yado Senrien” in Yunogo with our family and our beloved dog! The Room where we could stay with our dog was very comfortable, and we were truly happy that we could enjoy the delicious meals together the whole time. Usually on trips, our dog has to stay behind or we end up spending time apart, but this time our whole family could be together from start to finish and relax with peace of mind. Using the Accommodation as a base, just step out into the Onsen town and you’ll find everything packed into a charming, walkable area—an atmospheric shrine, footbaths to soothe tired feet, and stylish, cozy cafes. We were able to take a leisurely stroll at our dog’s pace and felt genuinely refreshed. With such warm hospitality and the best holiday spent together with the family (and our pup), it became an unforgettable memory that made us think from the bottom of our hearts, “We’re so glad we chose this place.” We also used a private bath inside the property with our dog. It was not an Onsen. It’s a favorite Accommodation we’d love to visit again in a different season!
