My father loved this Accommodation so much during our previous stay that we came back again.Everyone on the staff was so thoughtful, and the food in particular was delicious.We could really feel your hospitality.Even the tableware became part of our conversation, and my father’s favorite—pike conger—was especially tasty.Even after we got home, he kept saying, “It was delicious.”The portions were generous, so it may have been a bit too much for seniors.I felt bad leaving some behind.At night, I soaked in the ceramic tub and relaxed while gazing at the stars—it was truly healing time.We will definitely visit again.Thank you very much.

I made a Reservation for a 7th-floor Room with an open-air bath and stayed here.The view from the lobby was outstanding, and the welcome drink there—along with the sake tasting available until 6:00 p.m. and the sweets and coffee service until 9:00 p.m.—was wonderful.That said, the elevator was uncomfortably humid, which was truly disappointing for a Facility.The Room itself was very spacious, comfortable, and had a great view, but the hallway in the Room, the changing area, and the restroom were all extremely humid. Since it was summer and already very hot—and because the open-air bath is not an Onsen—I only used it once in the morning for a quick footbath.In that case, a lower-floor Room with a view bath might have been enough.On the other hand, the private open-air bath was excellent!The changing area felt like a small lounge space and even had air conditioning. Although it’s limited to 45 minutes, our family could relax and enjoy it.The meals were also delicious—especially dinner, which fully satisfied both in taste and portion size!We had an all-meat course that’s rare for a seaside Ryokan, and every dish was fantastic. I loved being able to enjoy plenty of meat along with how delicious each item was—it exceeded my expectations in a great way.During dinner they provided turndown service and left items like steam warming eye masks by our pillows, which felt like such thoughtful hospitality.Since we checked out one hour later than others, there was no send-off at all—it felt surprisingly simple—but we had lots of luggage, so it actually worked out well because we could get into our car without rushing.It’s only about 1 hour 30 minutes from Kobe, yet much more reasonably priced than Arima Onsen or Awaji Island—highly recommended!
