Our room has an excellent view just by the shore. Room was huge, with both Japanese and western area and the hot spring bath inside the room is excellent for my travel partner who is not comfortable using the public hot spring facilities. The two meals included were decadent, with lots of courses. Staff was friendly, attentive and the Japanese staff can communicate adequately in English. They do have a few foreign workers in the staff which speaks better English also. Location of hotel is just a 4 minutes walk from Amanohashidate Station.

It’s nicely renovated with a clean public bath and is located at a very convenient location. We can park our car at the parking after check out to continue the sight-seeing before leaving the area. Room is quiet and with nice view.

While the staff in general were friendly and helpful, we were very disappointed with the 2 staff at check out time. Two young staff - one female and one male - were just standing there watching me struggle with putting 3 full sizes luggages and 2 hand-carry into the car trunk. They stood there and just watched and didn’t help even my friend asked them too. This is not acceptable for a hotel if such high ratings.

Location was stunning. The garden outside of our first floor room, along the canal was peaceful and serene. I loved that they provided a futon mat to sit/lay down on to enjoy the outside as well. Our room was large and beautifully appointed. Loved making coffee in the room each morning and enjoying the view. Beds extremely comfortable and cozy. The private in-room onsen was delightful. We had a fabulous time riding along the peninsula on the one speed bicycles provided by the hotel.

Make plans for your meals. This is a very small town and any of the good restaurants will require reservations.

Location- The hotel itself and the surrounding area are beautiful. There is a nice beach and woodland walk next to the hotel. It is quiet and a nice break away from the hussle and bussle of the cities in Japan. Train station is around a 5 min walk. Staff- Very friendly & helpful with the majority speaking fairly good English. Public Baths- The male public baths were spotless and also include a sauna and cold plunge pool. Attention to detail- As with all of Japan, the rooms were extremely clean. The room had a great balcony looking onto a wooded area. I would suggest a 2 night stay to be able to fully enjoy the hotel and surrounding area.

Location- The vast majority of shops & resturants shut at around 6pm. If you haven't made a reservation at the hotel restaurant and the nearby restaurant 310 ( which is great by the way) is fully booked then you will struggle to eat. Bike rental- you have to pay 600 yen to rent bikes which is abit in an already expensive hotel. Breakfast- will not be to everyone's taste, especially westerners as it is mostly fish and soup.

Staffs are very attentive and we felt welcome almost before we arrived. Kumar san did a thorough orientation for our stay. Same goes to all the front desk and Mon dining area staffs. Japanese Breakfast was meticulously and superb

Nothing about the property I don’t like. The fact I’ve already miss the place cause had only booked stay for a night!

Quiet and peaceful hotel that mixes perfectly design and tradition. Rooms are large and comfortable. Amanohashidate beach is fantastic for a swim.

Beware that you should reserve dinner in the hotel before arrival otherwise you will have to fetch for a restaurant nearby and they basically mostly close before 6 pm.

Location, size, facilities, wonderful staff

Room temperature a bit hard to regulate, something not right with the toilet resulting in sewage smell.

The attention to detail.

Very clean and comfortable

Very nice traditional Japanese ryokan.

Sleeping futons are too thin.
