9/10 Combining a design respectful of traditions with elegantly integrated shōji and tatamis, this ryokan offers an authentic ambiance. The Kaiseki meals are delicate, and the onsen baths, enchanting, enhance the experience. The modern elements, although omnipresent, remain discreet so as not to spoil the Japanese charm.
