Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I like the hot spring in this property. But there are many areas this property is very poor design and managed. 1. Restaurant is not providing enough foods. As the high priced property, there is no food available while I stayed there. There is only drink in the room, no snack, no food in this property . Restaurant is closed and providing no food at all. I have to wait when they are opened. I will suggest future visitors to bring their own food while stay this property. To be hungry at that rural location is not good vacation at all. 3. Not safe to stay. My husband failed down in the stairs in the room. There are many stairs in the room. The black color make room so dark. The elevator is more like ghost place. In this property, everywhere is dark and black color. I don't like to stay in such dark place in my vacation. Overall we feel it's not good vacation for us at all. We were hungry with no food service and worry to fail in the room all the time.

A retreat like nowhere else.
What a surprise and delight to arrive at this exclusive and secluded spa- retreat outside the beaten track. Wonderful and attentive service, comfortable rooms with hot-tub, a separate spa with treatments and hot water pool - and not to forget the exquisite japanese inspired cuisine! Thank you, Chef Hitoshi Kagawa.

Amazing spot for a quick family vacation. Lunch and snack options are lacking, especially compared to other Ryokans in Japan, but excellent breakfast and dinner quality.
