Four-Star Hotels in Achi

The staff was very friendly and welcomed us. They put so much effort, we felt well treated. We loved the food so much, it was the best and premium food! They even took care of our allergies!

Modern design, tasteful and stylish. Great onsen, very quiet and wide opening hours. Room spacious and thoughtfully laid out, with wash basin outside of bathroom and a closing screen door for the sleeping area. Nice yakuta and guests welcome to dress in it throughout the hotel. Good location for the Nagome-Tsumago hiking trail. Some really excellent dishes on offer at breakfast.

Everything about this ryokan is exceptional. Elegant, personal and heartwarming. The service is probably the best I've experienced in Japan; it's personalised, helpful and friendly, without feeling overbearing. The food is absolutely amazing and the dining experience feels like you're being transported to a traditional, authentic Japan, which is a rare thing for modern ryokans to achieve. The onsen is also outstanding; the water quality, the facilities, the cleanliness, the atmosphere. Highly recommended!
