Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity

6/10 Playing on a refined ambiance, this ryokan manages to offer a pleasant experience, albeit modern. The rooms mix Japanese elements with contemporary comfort. The baths are appealing without being exceptional, and the architecture remains pleasant but influenced by Western touches. The whole, however, invites a pleasant stay.
