Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Beautiful efforts to marry modernity and tradition, but the style lacks purely Japanese uniqueness. The baths offer a relaxing experience, but without a hot spring source. The meals are varied and of good quality, without reaching the refined level of a kaiseki. The rooms are pleasant but integrate modern elements.
