    C’était exceptionnel, un dépaysement total

    C’est un établissement traditionnel on se sent en immersion totale avec la culture traditionnelle japonaise. Les bains thermal, le futon, le petit jardin, tout est incroyable

    J’ai découvert avec étonnant que l’oreiller était constitué de petites billes d’argile. Ce n’est pas fait pour tout le monde mais j’ai su m’adapter et finalement je n’ai pas si mal dormi.

    Amazing Japanese experience

    I had a fabulous experience staying at this ryokan. It was located on a very quiet street but at the same time very close to all the shops and restaurants. The ryokan itself was amazing, i wanted to immerse myself in the Japanese culture and i got just that. It was very traditional, with exceptional customer service and facilities. The room had everything i needed and it was very comfortable. I loved the personal touches i.e. new origami every morning on my bed and a nice message from the manager, or the staff being super quick to take my shoes and open/ close the door for me. The price doesn't match the expectations, i think it was far too cheap, which could be misleading, i honestly didn't expect this place to be as good as it was for that price. I will be back!

    Tipico ryokan situato in un quartiere che sembra un quadretto, bellissimo. La struttura è un po' datata, come d'altronde ci si aspetta da un ryokan tradizionale, ma le stanze sono molto spaziose e pulite. Bellissimo il giardino interno e quello all' ingresso. Non ho usufruito dell' onsen ma da quello che ho visto mi è sembrata in linea con altri ryokan. Mi ha fatto sorridere e piacevolmente stupito l'uso delle ciabatte, diverse per interni, bagno ed esterno, ma che contribuiscono a mantenere ordine e pulizia. Il personale è gentilissimo, pronto ad assistere con cambio scarpe, borse e apertura porte... brava e molto gentile Cristina, una ragazza italiana impiegata presso la struttura.

    Mi è piaciuto tutto e non ho nessun commento aggiuntivo. Certo, se cercate un hotel "moderno" questo non fa al caso vostro, ma varrebbe per tutti i ryokan

    Eccezionale. Consigliato per l’esperienza di un soggiorno indimenticabile in un bellissimo ryokan

    Tutto! La mia camera, in origine la sala per la cerimonia del te, affacciava sul giardino giapponese ben curato e molto bello. Il personale è sempre stato gentile e premuroso, facendomi trovare dei bellissimi origami ogni sera sul tatami insieme a delle frasi molto carine. La cena è stata eccezionale. Il bagno pubblico, rigenerante e riposante. Tutto assolutamente fantastico. Mi sono sempre sentita coccolata e ben accolta, nel modo che solo i giapponesi sanno fare, con molta grazia e molto garbo.
