"A very different experience for a foreigner, and one that I cherished as a student of Buddhism. If you aren’t adventurous, I don’t recommend it, and if you go, please be curious, open, and full of respect. The non-sleeping rooms will be very cold in winter, the food served is the food served, without changes available, there are rules about which slippers to wear where and what can be photographed, etc. If you’re interested in deep travel (versus hedonism), you will be gifted and changed....

"Very clean and perfect location!! a short 5 min walk from the train station! excellent restaurants and shopping nearby and a starbucks!"

"Wonderful experience! The staff was capable and helpful. The food was delicious. And you can’t beat how close the hotel is to Donguri Street and the Glico Man. One small thing is that the door directly to the women’s bath was somewhat broken and hard to open and close. Other than that it’s a great place for a traditional Japanese experience!"

"Had a good one night stay here. I was worried it wouldn’t be enough time to see everything i wanted too, but it turned out to be perfect. You can drop off your luggage before and after you check in which is really nice. Highlights for me were the public bath, and morning ceremony."

"This was a wonderful hotel… BUT, the pictures on Expedia were NOT ACCURATE. It did not have a bed as pictured and it did not have a bath or onsen. We enjoyed the stay but were disappointed about the way it was presented. "

"This ryokan was very spacious and was located in the heart of Dotonbori. The staff were very friendly and the property was clean. The halls had a bit of a strange smell, but the room itself was fantastic and had a stunning view of the river."

"Amazing experience! Our room was beautiful and the hotel is in a great area for walking aroind Koyasan. I used the onsen and had it to myself. Both the dinner and breakfast meals were amazing, as was partaking in the morning prayer"

"A very comfortable and traditional stay for our Japan trip. Great breakfast too!"

"We enjoyed our stay very much. The outdoor spa, especially the ones with ocean views are exceptional. The dining hall is huge. The breakfast and dinner buffets provide high quality and many varieties of food. Shuttle ferry / bus are convenient. The sunrise and sunset at the viewing platform are beautiful."

"Super unique experience off the beaten path to stay in a beautiful Ryokan. Would be great for a value with larger families, but be prepared to understand the busses or get a taxi, not a ton to do in the immediate area. On the other hand, staff was nice, limited but plenty of English with my terrible Japanese. Food was excellent and beautifully plated. Rooms were truly amazing, one of my favorite things on my travels."

"It was a nice experience. Very good customer service. Tradition Japanese living style. The only thing was the heater smell like exhaust fume for the entire stays that flared up my sinusitis. "

"We splurge and glad we did. This was one of the highlight of our trip to Japan. We could have booked a cheaper place but wanted the real deal.... and we were not disappointed. The architecture was authentically exquisite, the service like no other place in the world (we have been most everywhere), the food 1st class, and the bath a real joy. We were so happy. Our memories of this place will last a lifetime. "

5/5 Excellent

"There are so many small things that make this hotel great! It's convenient to do your own laundry here with a change machine located near the laundromat. The massage chairs feel fantastic after a long day on your feet. The food at both of the restaurants is delicious. There are many elevators so you never have to wait long. The rooms are wonderful! Small, but very well designed and super comfortable! I had a great view of USJ from my window and was never too bothered with outside noise. This is the best hotel I've stayed at and for a very good price!"
