Cozy and comfortable

Staff are super friendly. About a 15 min walk from the station. On the way u will pass by a Max Value supermarket that closes at 11pm. Beautiful public onsen. Free 1 hr private selected onsen and some has a very small fee. Dinner was amazing and is served early between 6 to 7pm sittings, so after dinner and onsen, we headed to the supermarket to grab some snacks. Breakfast were definitely a highlight as well. We went there for our anniversary and the host gifted us a nice picture for memoirs.

Lovely Ryokan

Excellent service! Breakfast and dinner were amazing. So much thoughts and efforts put into the food presentation, we truly appreciate the Japanese Kaiseki. Room was clean and cosy. Over the 3 night stay, we tried the public and family onsens. The public onsen has a wonderful snow-capped mountain view! Despite the icy cold weather, we thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor public onsen. So relaxing!

Very cosy ryokan, with friendly staff

Very good service, the ryokan emailed us immediately after our booking, to ask about the number of guests to prepare the amenities. They provided free pick up service from the train station as well. The dinner and breakfast was very yummy. The ryokan was very cost and futons very comfortable!
