Kurhouse Shirahama
--- The establishment is not yet rated
Majestically nestled in the famous Shirahama Onsen district, this ryokan blends Japanese tradition and modernity. The light wood, clean lines, and natural light flooding the spaces create a soothing atmosphere, inviting serenity. Between the gentle thermal baths, the calm of the sauna, and the tranquility offered by the spa, every corner promises total rejuvenation, while the indoor pool adds an extra touch of relaxation to this wellness oasis.
Meeting the expectations of travelers seeking authenticity, the rooms range from a traditional Japanese style, with futons delicately placed on tatami mats, to more modern accommodations offering comfortable beds. Spacious family options are also available, some offering a soothing view of the sea or intimate with a private terrace, allowing for a full experience of a ryokan in Shirahama.
Harmoniously located, the ryokan offers on-site a family-friendly restaurant, where the refined flavors of Japanese cuisine are fully expressed, notably through local breakfasts. Just a few steps away, visitors can also discover establishments where the region’s gastronomy marries the charm of coastal landscapes, completing this deliciously unforgettable culinary experience.
Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Materializing a combination of modern and Japanese elements, the architecture maintains a pleasant harmony. The rooms mix authenticity thanks to the tatami mats and adaptability for comfort, but the blend sometimes remains too contemporary. The onsen space, well-designed, however, lacks exceptional charm. The culinary experience strives to be local and refined, without reaching great finesse.
