Yamagata The Takinami

9,5/10 Exceptional - Based on 6 reviews

A jewel of authenticity nestled in Nanyo in the Yamagata prefecture, this ryokan harmoniously blends modern elegance with traditional Japanese charm. Its clean lines in natural wood and spaces bathed in light reveal a remarkable attention to detail. The hot spring baths, indoors or outdoors, offer a unique experience of relaxation and well-being. Aesthetic care services complement this sensory escape, all in a green setting conducive to serenity.

A true sanctuary, each room in the ryokan offers a warm and refined atmosphere. The accommodations, air-conditioned and soundproofed, feature terraces opening onto captivating views, whether of the gardens or the surrounding nature. Several rooms have a traditional tatami space and an outdoor stone bath, inviting a complete immersion in Japanese culture. Hypoallergenic and equipped with modern comfort, these rooms guarantee a soothing and rejuvenating stay.

Honoring local gastronomy, the on-site restaurant offers contemporary Japanese cuisine, crafted with exceptional regional products. To vary the pleasures, the surrounding neighborhood is also full of charming addresses to savor typical cuisine. Staying in this ryokan in Nanyo means diving into Japanese elegance while enjoying the flavors and warmth of unique hospitality.


Japanese Authenticity Evaluation

6/10 Pretty establishment with a design combining modern and traditional, but the atmosphere lacks immersive coherence. Rooms with tatami mats and futons are pleasant, but some modern elements reduce authenticity. The outdoor baths add charm, though modest. Culinary touches remain unknown, limiting the overall evaluation.
