Yunagi no Yu HOTEL Kajika

I stayed here on a trip with friends.\n\nWe used this Hotel as a base for visiting Ritsurin Garden, which I had long wanted to see. Located up a steep hill, the Hotel also offered beautiful night views. Perhaps because it was a weekday, it never felt crowded, and we were able to relax and enjoy our time. The staff’s service was very pleasant, the meals were delicious, and we were very satisfied.\n\nThe Room had Facilities that conveyed a sense of history, but everything worked properly and was well maintained. One thing: the entrance door was a sliding door designed like shoji screens, so when our conversation got lively, we suddenly worried whether we were being too loud in the hallway or disturbing others. It would have been perfect if we could have chatted without worrying about that.

We stayed here for a mother-and-daughter family trip. The building itself is old, but it has been renovated, and the Room we stayed in was clean and well maintained. The Onsen had a pleasant woody scent, and we were able to relax and enjoy it at a leisurely pace. Since the building is located up in the mountains, once you check in, going out can feel like a hassle. It might be nice to have light snacks or a restaurant that guests can use without making a Reservation. Both the in-room bath and the large public bath at the Onsen were very enjoyable.
