Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
Absolutely loved this place - our room on the second floor looked out onto the trees and up to Mount Daisen, and from the seating area we felt immersed in the woods. The hosts felt very welcoming and calm and it was the most peaceful experience. The vegan food was out of this world and we started each day with a zen meditation with one of the monks. Would definitely recommend to stay at this ryokan to find some stillness and comfort. Would rate at 11 if I could.
I had a great experience staying here. The facilities were excellent, the food was delicious and the host was fantastic. The owner spoke English and gave me some advice about exploring the area. I felt very welcome here and really hope to visit again. The location is perfect for hiking or skiing. I highly recommend it.
The stay, onsen and everything else was great. Breakfast and dinner are delicious, hosts are very friendly and nice. On my checkout day, it was snowing quite heavily which caught me by surprise. Was worried about how to get to the bus stop with my luggage since the snow above-ankle deep. They were nice and offered to drive me down to the station which I greatly appreciate.
It's a lovely guesthouse in traditional style. The owners are super friendly and helpful. The location is directly next to the bus stop. They made me a super delicious vegan lunch package and the onsen is nice as well. Liked it there very much.
Humble guest house with exceedingly good service staff. Quiet room facing the temple and experienced short stint of snow. The vegetarian halfboard meals (where the main ingredients were grown locally in the vicinity) were excellent. Good indoor onsen too. A great getaway for peaceful personal time
