Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
4/10 The ryokan presents a modern atmosphere mixed with some traditional touches, but lacks emblematic elements like shōji or tatamis in the rooms. The baths seem comfortable but unremarkable, and the cuisine, although varied and appealing, strays from the standards of an authentic kaiseki meal.
