Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
5/10 Rich in modern and traditional blends, this ryokan offers a partially Japanese experience. The tatamis and futons bring an authentic ambiance, but the modern elements leave an impression of a fusion hotel rather than total immersion. The meals and baths lack a bit of refinement to completely transport visitors into tradition.
