Harmoniously blending Japanese tradition and modern tranquility, Fujisan Ryokan in Hanamaki invites its visitors into a sanctuary of relaxation.

A hot tub and massages complete an experience conducive to total calm, while free Wi-Fi and the common lounge add a touch of contemporary convenience.

Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
9/10 An authentic setting with refined rooms featuring tatami and shōji, a traditional ambiance in the heart of nature. The baths are elegant with a beautiful integration, and the kaiseki cuisine stands out for its care and variety. A few modern touches do not alter the overall experience.
