Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Rich in Japanese touches, this ryokan combines traditional aesthetics and modernity. However, the authenticity is slightly diluted by more contemporary functional elements. The meals seem refined, evoking local cuisine. The baths offer a pleasant but modest experience, while the well-appointed rooms sometimes lack purely ancestral character.
