Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
6/10 Traditional elements like tatami and shōji add charm, but the design also draws inspiration from modern standards. The cuisine is adequate although less sophisticated than a traditional kaiseki. The onsens offer a pleasant experience without exceptional details. The ambiance of the rooms is pleasant but remains local.
