Inatori Ginsuiso
8,9/10 Excellent - Based on 37 reviews
Silently nestled in the embrace of the verdant hills of Higashiizu, the Inatori Ginsuiso celebrates the harmony between man and nature. Every corner of this ryokan in Higashiizu invites rejuvenation, thanks to its thermal baths enveloped by the echo of the waves and its soothing sauna. The outdoor pool, under the blue sky or the twinkling stars, is an aquatic haven where the body finds sincere rest.
Naturally designed to embrace the Zen spirit, the rooms offer a haven of peace with their tatami floors and traditional futons. Bathed in subtle light, they open onto the vastness of the ocean, transforming each sunrise into a promise of wonder. Modern amenities blend smoothly into this traditional aesthetic, ensuring comfort and serenity.
At the edge of culinary imagination, the ryokan’s restaurant elevates local cuisine to an art. The dishes, meticulously prepared, honor the richness of the sea and the surrounding mountains’ produce. For gourmet explorers, the surroundings are also teeming with treasures, from fresh sushi to wasabi specialties, an invitation to embark on an unparalleled culinary journey.
Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
8/10 Its spaces harmoniously combine tradition and modernity with tatami rooms and shōji. The onsen offers a breathtaking view and adds exceptional quality. The cuisine highlights Japanese flavors, although a more refined effort in Kaiseki would have perfected the experience. The rooms, modern, remain warm and well-designed.
