    We had a stunning room with its own outside onsen - the view was magnificent and the comfort of the room beyond compare. It's obvious the hotel is not brand new, but it has been well maintained and the location is amazing.

    The hotel was a huge fun park. Throwback to the 1960s with all really interesting decor but traditional to the Japanese Ryokan. The staff knew your name and the checkins were super smooth. Food was also really amazing with all the traditional...

    We love the Cave Onsen, the dinner and breakfast was very good and the room is just tremendous. We booked a sea view room where you can actually watch sunrise in the morning, it was spectacular.
