Japanese Authenticity Evaluation
5/10 Establishment combining modernity and tradition with magnificent views of the surrounding nature. A partial approach to classic Japanese elements, but contemporary influence dominates. The baths offer a beautiful visual experience, but the kaiseki seems absent. The rooms combine comfort and modern design, lacking traditional tatamis.
