Avis Yamagishi Ryokan

Very convenient location, Lawson right next door, close to the Ropeway, etc.

전통 료칸. 식사는 그럭저럭 괜찮음. 숙소도 호수 전망은 괜찮을 듯 하나, 시내전망은 그리 좋지는 않았음 온천은 두개로 나뉘어져있는데, 자정을 기점으로 남여탕이 바뀜. 엘리베이터에서 내리자마자 보이는 온천은 노천탕으로 나가면 호수 전망이 보이고, 샤워시설도 훌륭함. 나머지 한 곳은 구색맞추기 용인듯...즉, 이 곳은 낮에 일찍 체크인을 하고, 온천을 이용해야함. -> 훌륭한 온천이 체크인을 했을 때, 남여인지를 확인하고, 낮에 이용을 해야만 호수 전망을 볼 수 있음. 만약 체크인을 했을 때, 훌륭한 온천이 반대 성별이라면 그 다음날 아침에 이용하면 됨.

因在伊香保遲了回程，因此到晚上七點多才到酒店, 感激酒店為我們保留了晚餐。

Yamagishi is a solid choice for a traditional ryokan experience. The room was large for Japan, and the food was quite good and satisfying. There was always plenty of dishes and many were delicious. This area is wonderful and the inn's location is excellent. It's right by a tour bus stop that takes you all around the lake area, and a Lawson's convenience store is next door for anything you might need. We were able to communicate with the staff in English and Chinese, and they were always ready to please and help us. We felt welcomed. They will shuttle you to the downtown/station as needed. When you arrive, just go to the tourist info office and tell them the hotel name. A driver will be there very soon to take you to the inn. We had the Japanese style room with shower, with a lake view. Lovely view. Since there were two of us, we ourselves doubled up our futons at night so we had a bit more padding to sleep on. We slept well. I have some trouble with my leg so it wasn't easy to get up and down into the low seating that was available, so these kinds of ryokan are not the best for someone with limited mobility. I made out all right though and enjoyed the experience. I didn't ask for a higher chair but I bet there was something available if I had asked. The prices are high here during popular times of the year. Given the limited choices and prices that are available, I was very glad that I opted for the Yamagishi. It's an older place but clean and well-maintained.
