Yorozuya

The old-fashioned Momoyama-style bath was truly impressive. From the changing room, the detailed ceiling and flooring created a wonderful sense of character, and when I opened the door to the indoor bath, I couldn’t help but sigh at the atmosphere of a bygone era. The open-air bath also had an excellent ambiance.I rated service 4 because I would have appreciated clearer maps and signage inside the property.

We visited to celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary. We had long admired Yorozuya, and from the moment we stepped into the entrance, we were amazed by the magnificent coffered ceiling. The lion folding screen and furnishings were also wonderful—like being in a museum. While listening to jazz, we were served matcha tea, and it was truly a blissful time. Our Room was spacious as well. We then went to our main destination: the Momoyama Bath, a designated cultural property. All we could say was “Wow”—it was an incredible bath. The steam bath and outdoor bath far exceeded our imagination and felt like works of art. The Shinonome Bath was also very nice. And then dinner: the proprietress’s handwritten menu had so much character and was beautiful—she is also a talented artist. The food was delicious, and my husband and I were deeply moved by the congratulatory message written with chocolate on the dessert plate. Thank you so much for the warm hospitality from all of the staff. The next day, we were able to tour the Momoyama Bath again, take photos, and listen to an explanation—it was truly wonderful.The shared bath outside was also great.It became an unforgettable trip, and we would love to visit again. We’re experiencing serious “Yorozuya loss” now...
