The onsen was great that wasnt my problem. My first problem was actually getting there, the google maps had me climb a bunch of stairs. The place should encourage taxi for future stays. The second was limited food selections. The third, was well expedia said breakfest was included but when i asked they said no i had to pay. I did but i just think it should be fixed on there expedia profile.

Love the experience!

Wonderful! Best meal of our trip and relaxing private onsens. Comfortable beds and strong wifi. We would definitely return. Ajisai is a ryokan or traditional Japanese inn tatami-matted rooms, futons and private onsens or natural hot springs. Upon making a reservation, the hotel sent us a detailed email with directions and advice. The managers/owners are lovely and very helpful. When you arrive, you can feel the peaceful atmosphere. Our family studio had a queen and a twin bed raised with 2 extra futons in the closet. The rooms are spacious with a private bathroom but no showers –reserve an onsen which include showers. Buy the “half board” which includes kaiseki or a multi-course dinner and your choice of Japanese or Western breakfast. The dinner was an entire experience – just as you finish a course, another one is served. Our favorite course was the cook your own beef on your own mini cooking device – it was both fun and delicious. There were 3 choices of private onsens: indoor and outdoor, indoor with sauna, or outdoor. They were a very relaxing and rejuvenating experience. You will love the serenity and overall experience of Ajisai Onsen Ryokan!

The staff was wonderful. Kind, eager to help and make sure guests were taken care of. We had a wonderful dinner and equally excellent breakfast. It’s a small quiet place out of the way, and it felt private and peaceful. The onsen reservation system was simple and we got lucky to get multiple chances to try indoors and outdoors. We had a great experience.
