Families find here spacious spaces adapted to their needs, making the Mikuma Hotel a ryokan in Hita ideal for all travelers.
Gourmet pleasures are also at the rendezvous thanks to the two on-site restaurants. Gojudon and Isobetei serve refined Japanese cuisine in a modern or traditional ambiance, depending on your desires.

For breakfast, a range of fresh and local dishes is offered to start the day in the best conditions.
Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
8/10 Perfectly located with a splendid view, this ryokan blends tradition and modernity in its architecture and rooms. The baths offer a relaxing experience, while the meals, although varied, lack refinement. The ambiance exudes Japanese elegance with a contemporary touch. The whole provides a pleasant and almost authentic immersion.
