Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
8/10 The places harmoniously combine tradition and modernity, with rooms inspired by Japanese style and refined meals highlighting local flavors. The baths, well-located, add a relaxing touch, although slightly less authentic. A well-crafted atmosphere makes for a pleasant and immersive experience, but with some concessions to modernity.
