8,3/10 Excellent - Based on 197 reviews
Richly nestled in the heart of Hita, the Hita Onsen Kizantei Hotel stands out for its soothing and elegant atmosphere. Its spaces harmoniously blending Japanese tradition and modernity offer a breathtaking view of the Mikuma River. The hot spring baths, sauna, and jacuzzi extend this serenity, inviting every visitor to a moment of absolute well-being. Facilities accessible to all, including people with reduced mobility, promise a hassle-free stay, enhanced by free Wi-Fi and parking.
Offering various types of rooms, in pure Japanese style or combined with Western touches, this ryokan in Hita meets the needs of every traveler. Some rooms, adorned with traditional tatami mats and equipped with futons, open onto sublime panoramas of the mountains and river. The prestigious suites offer private baths fed by local hot springs, while spacious family spaces ensure comfort and privacy. Each non-smoking room embodies Japan’s refined hospitality.
Savoring the dishes offered in the ryokan’s restaurants is an experience in itself. Local and international specialties are served in an intimate and refined setting. An Asian breakfast, carefully prepared, is also available to start the day off right. Nearby, gourmet escapes in cafes or restaurants add a local touch to the journey, perfectly complementing the unique charm of this sanctuary by the water.
Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Partial richness blending modernity and tradition: architecture incorporating Japanese elements but nuanced by a contemporary style, carefully prepared cuisine without reaching an authentic kaiseki, baths present but without remarkable natural source, and pleasant rooms combining comfort and minimal tradition.
