Japanese Authenticity Evaluation

8/10 A beautiful balance between modernity and tradition is felt with rooms offering tatamis and classic Japanese elements. The cuisine focuses on refined presentations and local products, typical of kaiseki. The absence of a real onsen slightly reduces the overall authenticity of the experience.
