Ryokans in Kamimashiki District

"We had a wonderful stay in Kurosawa - a beautiful little town. The Hanadomari was super - the best part was our private onsen next to the river. Awesome!"

"Impeccable service from the staff. The in room breakfast and supper were incredible. "

"It was a lovely visit at a place we would happily return to."

"A perfect experience, great food and a wonderful Ryokan. Highly recomend"

"The best onsen hotel that we ever stayed at! the room is huge and hospitality was outstanding! also, dinner was very delicious as well! highly recommend this onsen hotel "

"Completely out the way, quiet, genuine staff who serve you a lovely dinner in your room. I hit a quiet patch so really managed to detach and got the Onsen to myself. It is away from the main town that the bus goes to but they were really happy to give me a lift there, and if i'd stayed there i wouldn't have found the waterfall that again i had completely to myself for some skinny dipping."

"This was the most charming, hospitable, beautiful and unforgettable Ryokan in Japan! The meals were so well thought out and crafted. Every little dish was delicious. We felt the care and love from the kitchen. We stayed in the room with a private onsen. Highly recommend this place."

"全部屋離れのため静かに過ごすこともでき、温泉にも癒されました。食事もクオリティが高くてとても美味しかったです。"

"Food was expensive but worth it. Bath is room was excellent. Shared bath was mostly empty (male) and serene. 음식은 비쌌지만 그만한 가치가 있었음. 객실 내 목욕 시설은 훌륭했고, 공용 목욕탕(남성)은 한산하고 고요한 분위기였음."
