The owner and staff are very kind and caring. The woman who serves the meals was great and took time to help us understand what all the varieties of food were. It is a great traditional japanese inn experience with a nice onsen and good quality meals. The location has great views as well, it would be excellent during cherry blossom season.

We enjoyed the proximity to the station and Mount Yoshino also the cleanliness and comfort of the beds. The host was very attentive and it was great to have a washing machine and lots of cooking utensils and serving ware.

What a nice traditional home and authentic experience. The sauna and onsen are a treat. Its a short walk uphill. A small river passes by.
The owner is very considerate and helpful.

It was like staying at a good friend’s place. We were given a lovely greeting, shown our beautiful tatami room and given a quick tour of the communal facilities. It was a restful stay with a fabulous sushi restaurant only minutes walk up the hill for a late dinner. Genuine hospitality all round!

Come during cherry blossom season, Yoshino town is famous for Mount Yoshino, a mountain full of cherry blossoms. The hike up to the summit from the trailhead takes about 2 hours, so plan accordingly. It is a relatively easy hike with asphalt roads and moderate inclination. There are also many temples and shrines along the way up.
Parking is really expensive along the hiking route, so taking a bus is probably the best option.

A great place to experience Japanese nature and calmness.
A great place to experience Japanese nature and calmness. We went there off season and were the only tourists around! The temple is a world heritage site and really magical. Everything in the village closes at 4pm which was a bit annoying sometimes but also forces you to rest and come
Down! Tip from us, definitely take the hike to the top of the mountains if the weather is nice, it’s super nice!

You need 2 nights and a full day here and you need to love...
You need 2 nights and a full day here and you need to love mountains! On the first afternoon we walked from the ryokan down to the station and back using the cable car ropeway for the hard bit from the station. Lots of lovely shrines and templea and family run cafes. Day 2 get ready to hike up Yoshino mountain along paved road to see the remaining shrines and temples. From the ryokan it takes about 90 mins up and about 5kms. I am overweight with bad knees and i managed it so if you take it slowly you will be fine. Magnificent experience. When you get to the shrine number 11 on the local map, don’t do number 12 unless you are dead keen.my friend did that bit and he was scared at times. Narrow path. Rocky etc. I believe you can go on from the loop at the top which is about 30 mins to do another 4kms across to another temple. My advice is be happy with getting to 11, walk back down into the village and have a late lunch then go soak in your onsen!
Wonderful view across the valley. There were lots of great spaces to relax and hang out. The cabins are beautifully done in a traditional style. The kitchen was fully kitted out with everything you need to grill, bbq, hotpot or whatever you like to cook. Yoshino was a great base to explore local shrines, hiking paths, sake breweries and villages. Our host was exceptional in proving recommendations about the local area and even helped us make a booking for Uda’s amazing soba restaurant. Thank you for helping us make the most of our stay!
The location was superb, with the room carrying a lovely aesthetic and comfort. The offered breakfast was delicious and the facilities are all neat and clean. The owners were very accomodating and kind. It would be a property I would visit again for a longer period of time.
The area surrounding also contains a serene environment to explore with its mountain range located past Yoshino and town by the train station.
We enjoyed the proximity to the station and Mount Yoshino also the cleanliness and comfort of the beds. The host was very attentive and it was great to have a washing machine and lots of cooking utensils and serving ware.
Staff are PHENOMENAL. Food is INCREDIBLE. Best part: GORGEOUS ROOM VIEW 💕
(Arrange with the staff for a pick up at Yoshino station. Recommend taking the Blue Symphony express train as it’s very luxe!)
