"素晴らしい滞在となりました。家内の母と三人で宿泊しましたが、お部屋も広く部屋からは紅葉になりかけの景色が見えて癒されました。スタッフの方々もとても親切にしていただき感謝申し上げます。"

"It was the Japanese spirit people come to experience in their trip to Japan,but rarely do!To look out on that garden whilst having the hotel breakfast especially prepared individually on locally made pottery was a highlight of my visit to Japan.The staff are exceptional in behaviour and manners.This experience in the mountains outside of Kyoto was tryly unique"

"I love everything about the property :) "

"We stayed for just one night to expierence the best this ryokan had to offer and man did it exceed all our expectations. To truly know, book one of their 4 suites. The #500 rooms. Massive rooms with authentic tatami mats, personal and private onsen that is open air facing the beautiful lake, out of this world seasonal dinner/breakfast course. The area is secluded enough to be quiet but not far from the local town. Cute and quaint souvenir shop. Oh and the bidet toilet is the best we've ever seen. Lastly, the staff is extremely accommodating, friendly, and helpful. They know english very well too. They have a shuttle that does pick up and drop off from Ogotoonsen Station so skip the taxi and call the resort when you get there. If you have cell service there is a free cell phone that you can use to call the resort. Theres also a guide of numbers for all the resorts in the area. To wrap up, book a night at this ryokan you will not regret treating yourself to a time of lavish luxury. "

"I was really grateful to have been given such great service throughout my stay here. They truly went above and beyond to make sure I was treated with a warm and inviting welcome to their hotel. The room and amenities were wonderful. I would definitely choose to stay here again!"

"In Japan for a month. This was by far the best place I stayed. Staff was amazing. Food is great. Rooms are clean and spacious. And the onsen is relaxing and peaceful. Great Japanese ryokan experience. The staff was so friendly and nice. Felt like I was staying at a friend’s house—except it didn’t have to help with chores."
