Luxurious beautiful stay

Enjoyed our luxurious stay. Everyone was so friendly and kind. The property and area are beautiful. We booked a room with a private bath to add to the luxury. Also a bit shy being westerners so got to enjoy a lot of baths without feeling uncomfortable. Food was good and presentation was gorgeous. Almost too much for us but that seems to be standard with kaiseki meals!

Great time

It was bit confusing for the directions as there were another ryokannext door. Signs should be clearer. Our rooms and facilities werevaguely introduced n the communual onsen closed quite early. After dinner there were no time to go the open air one. The rooms were quite dusty Hiwever miyamasanso was very private and comfortable. The suites weee so relaxing the pricate obsenwas wonderful, really big with the western style rooms. Dinner was great despite the breakfast wasnt worth it.
