    The food was excellent, always fresh, varied and typically Japanese. The owners were very friendly and extremely helpful.They could speak and understand a basic english.You feel very safe.The rooms are lovingly decorated in traditional Japanese style and equipped with air conditioning. The inn accommodates only a few guests and thus creates a very familiar atmosphere. We felt very comfortable and would come back again and again.

    Breakfast was amazing, and the couple running the place are extremely friendly and helpful. They helped us make a reservation at a restaurant we wanted to try, and were super quick when we wanted to change the breakfast time. There is also a beautiful small garden to which we had access to directly from our room!

    Nothing, it was a perfect stay.

    Centric location with spacious rooms and clean bathrooms. The food was superb and the attention was top notch. The hosts made sure all of our needs were covered and were incredibly attentive, taking care of everything as if we were part of the family. We would definitely go back when visiting Japan.

    We STRONGLY recommend to anyone and we will come back again for sure! Our stay at this ryokan was truly incredible. Thank you for welcoming us so warmly. The traditional Japanese decoration was absolutely beautiful, especially the small veranda overlooking the garden — the morning view was magical. The room was serene and elegant, the futon comfortable and the traditional Japanese food was delicious and refined. Additionally, the hosts, a lovely couple were so kind — it felt like being welcomed into a Japanese family. The whole experience was unforgettable. We were truly delighted. Thank you again!

    We spent the night here to visit Takeda Castle, as well as Ritsuunkyo Mountain, which is only one train stop away. The owners were extremely polite, genuinely friendly, and chatty! The rooms were traditional Japanese in style and very clean. The bathroom was separate, but we had it entirely to ourselves. There is also a bath, which you can use privately or share with the person staying in the same room. The accommodation was very comfortable overall. It was raining as we were leaving, the owners kindly drove us to the station!

    The hosts were welcoming, accommodating and hospitable. It's within easy walking distance of the train station, as well as the shops over the river. The dinner and breakfast were huge! We loved having traditional Japanese meals. The experience felt very authentic and the host lady even dropped us at the starting point for the Takeda Castle hike, as well as at the train station when we checked out! We would love to return.

    A bit more expensive than city hotels, not a lot of choice around the area. Have to book dinner and breakfast day(s) in advance, owner prepares meal with fresh ingredients and unable to accommodate for late requests (this is not a complaint).

    Nice Japanese style room, quite place and very lovely owners.
