Amazing traditional town house with beautiful Japanese garden. Best hotel in Japan! Also close to train station for bamboo forest and other attractions.
OUTSTANDING attention to details. The Owner met us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the property which was a meticulously well kept 100 year old traditional town house. Then they had prepared for us a traditional Japanese greeting snack. This was the perfect experience to show my family traditional Japan. We had mentioned on arrival that we were looking for a traditional type of high end Japanese desert which we never had time to find, and guess what, they brought that as our parting gift! Absolutely perfect.
