Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Hotel Reoma no Mori
7,4/10 Very Good - Based on 651 reviews
Beyond the gates of the ryokan in Marugame, a world filled with serenity unfolds. The gardens peacefully adorned with flowers and the gentle warmth of the hot springs invite a total rejuvenation. The soothing murmur of the hot springs, the sauna, and the spaces dedicated to massages wrap each moment in a veil of comfort. In summer, the outdoor pool sparkles like a jewel under the sun, while the play areas and activities – from karaoke to reading in a dedicated space – resonate with the rhythm of simple and shared pleasures.
With their discreet elegance, the rooms skillfully blend Japanese authenticity with modern comfort. Sliding doors open onto a tatami floor, ready to welcome fluffy futons for a sleep close to traditions. The modern-inspired rooms offer generous bay windows, revealing soothing views of lush landscapes or sparkling with night lights. Each space promises a unique sensory immersion in the Japanese soul, whether for couples, families, or travelers seeking refined intimacy.
The buffet restaurant, a true symphony of flavors, offers a range of Japanese and Western dishes, highlighting the freshness and diversity of the ingredients. Just minutes from the establishment, other culinary spots delight the palates of udon or local grill enthusiasts. Finally, for those with a sweet tooth, the relaxation area with drinks and snacks offers a gourmet break in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
5/10 Offering pleasant baths but with a rather modern style and mixed architecture, this ryokan attempts to combine modernity and tradition. The presence of varied and colorful activities makes it a unique experience, but somewhat distant from traditional Japanese standards. The cuisine seems correct, but lacks authenticity.
