Kinosaki Maruyamagawa Onsen Ginka

We stayed here for our honeymoon.Both the staff member who guided us at check-in and the person in charge of dinner struck the perfect balance—warm, attentive, and sincerely welcoming—so we were able to relax and enjoy our stay.We splurged on the Tajima beef kaiseki.There were no vacancies for a second-floor Room, so we were a little worried about dining in the restaurant, but it turned out to be a completely private room and felt very special.We were also happy that the menu had our new last name and the date printed on it, so we took it home as a keepsake.*Sound does carry quite a bit, so when the guests next door spoke loudly at times, their conversation drowned ours out (in a funny way).More than satisfied.We were absolutely stuffed.I was looking forward to late-night soba, but there was no room left—if anything, we went back to our Room and fell asleep right away.Such a shame.Both dinner and breakfast offered choices, which added an extra special touch and made us very happy.The rice at breakfast was so good—I couldn’t finish it all and wished I could have made onigiri…It had been ages since I slept on a futon mattress, so I was nervous, but there was a mattress underneath and it felt just like sleeping in a bed.And the amenities were Sekkisei…In the women’s large public bath there was also an assortment of shampoos to choose from—even ReFa shampoo was available.I usually bring my own because I worry whether provided products will suit my skin or hair, but this time I didn’t need any skincare at all… which almost made me regret packing mine.This Accommodation left us with “the best kind of regret”—the kind that makes you want to come back.Next time we’re celebrating an anniversary or another special occasion, we’d love to upgrade to a higher-grade Room.Thank you again—we hope to return.

The Room, meals, and Onsen were all excellent. It was our first time in a while getting together as a family, and we had the best holiday.
