Akane Saian Sansui

I stayed here for one night after having had my eye on it for a while. It’s close to central Tokyo, and the meals are well-balanced and delicious. Thank you to the proprietress, the head chef, and all the staff for your thoughtful hospitality. Now I understand why it’s so popular!

I look forward to visiting a different Accommodation once a month. Sansui was my first visit in October of the year of the earthquake disaster. The owner’s creative cuisine—wonderful to look at and even better to eat—the warm personality of the proprietress, and the beautiful view of Lake Kanna from the Room (I was surprised how low the water level was) made me a huge fan. The menu changes every month, so it’s enjoyable no matter what season you visit.The mixed rice for dinner and the white rice cooked in an earthenware pot for breakfast are so delicious that I always end up eating more than usual.I was also surprised to learn that the staff member we always enjoy chatting with is your younger sister! (Even though we’ve visited about 20 times.)It truly feels like we’re visiting relatives.It isn’t an Onsen, but with a lovely private bath and a warming hydrogen bath, plus beautiful scenery and delicious meals, this is an Accommodation I can confidently recommend.
