Amazing Ryokan in a great location. Spotlessly clean. Japanese breakfast highly recommended! We didn’t use the public baths but the private pool was great.

Our first stay at a Ryokan, we were so well looked after, from the moment we walked in, to the time we checked out. The small touches made it truly special, a stocked fridge, treats on the table in checkin and after dinner, and all of the deer. Everywhere I turned, there were more cute deer!
