Komao
7,8/10 Very Good - Based on 58 reviews
Wonderfully nestled between rivers and mountains, this ryokan in Kiso offers a setting where nature blends with traditional Japanese architecture. The immaculate gardens invite serenity, while the public bath overlooking the greenery promises deep well-being. Each space reflects a soothing aesthetic, complemented by modern services, including Wi-Fi and free parking for a hassle-free stay.
Minimalist and bright, the rooms offer an immersive experience in Japanese elegance with their comfortable futons and minimalist design. Each room, thanks to its large windows, offers a calming view of the surrounding mountains or rivers. The impeccable shared bathrooms are enhanced with refined toiletries and cozy slippers.
Around the ryokan, several dining options delight visitors. Explore intimate cafes like クマタ and warm places like バー松島 or typical local restaurants such as 覚明堂. These addresses, located a short distance away, invite you to savor the authentic flavors of the region, perfectly complementing the experience offered by this haven of peace in Kiso.
Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Despite a charming setting and a few traditional elements, the ambiance gives way to a certain modernity. The baths, although functional, lack authentic and natural charm. The meals are varied and appetizing but do not reach the excellence of kaiseki. Overall, a pleasant experience, but not entirely immersive.
