About

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

  • Private open-air baths — Several suites come with their own open-air bath or private pool, allowing for a personal onsen experience with mountain views.
  • In-room dining — Kaiseki breakfast and dinner are served in the room, with staff explaining each dish. Guests call it a highlight.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Price for a 5-star ryokan — This is an upscale property, so rates will be high. While guests feel the quality justifies it, budget travellers may want to weigh the cost.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 18:00, which can be tight for travellers arriving later.
  • No pets allowed — The ryokan does not permit pets, so those travelling with animals need to look elsewhere.
  • Smoking in designated areas — Although non-smoking rooms exist, there are designated smoking areas on site, which may bother sensitive guests.
