Evaluation of Japanese Authenticity
7/10 Striking a balance between modernity and tradition, this ryokan seduces with its aesthetic setting and rooms featuring authentic elements. However, the culinary experience and bathing space seem to lack refinement or depth. A beautiful immersion, but with some room for even more marked authenticity.
