They are absolutely kind. When we arrived at Kagaonsen station, he came to us and picked me up to Ryokan. It was so comfortable.
We added dinner and family bath. The dinner was so delicouse and family bath was also very nice.
The most impressive thing was the tea ceremony.
I am very satisfied with my experience in Ryokan.
Very pleasant stay and enjoyed kind welcome of the staffs.
I expected this place is located a very remote area with full of natural sight.
However, it is surrounded by villages, so I could not enjoy the scenic view from this hotel.
Everything was just outstanding. The place is beautiful, the onsen, garden and more. The service was amazing, 11/10. It was a magical stay that really exceeded our expectations.
Our experience was lovely! We stayed two nights. The staff was so accomodating--it was our first experience at a traditional ryokan, and the staff was very helpful in explaining various customs. They made us feel very at home. The free shuttle to and from the station was very convenient and easy to reserve. The check-in and check-out processes were easy and pleasant as well, with matcha and sweets provided at check-in as an opportunity to rest and look out on the garden. Our room was gorgeous, with a stunning view of the mountains, and sleeping on the tatami was extremely comfortable. We reserved the private onsen both nights of our stay (for a small fee) and that was also a simple and convenient process. Finally, breakfast was amazing--all of the numerous dishes were delicious and beautifully prepared.
Overall, it was a truly magical experience staying at Houshi Ryokan. We left this morning and already want to go back! ใใใใจใใใใใพใใ!
