Ryokan / Guest House Spots in Japan

Excellent facilities, location, and service. We love the private onsen! It has good wifi. (When there is a wifi issue, they will reset it to have it fixed right away.) You can also adjust the room...

The owner at this guesthouse is SO lovely. She really made our stay special. She offered so many helpful suggestions and made sure she helped us plan our short time in Nikko. She really made us feel...

We had booked a room with an onsen, apparently there are 4 rooms with this room type. The room is a combo of western/eastern - tatami for our dining area but we sleep on beds. Dinner and breakfast...

Staying at a traditional Ryonkan was on our bucket list. Our stay of Kikokuso was easily one of our best decisions we made on the trip. Our family of four stayed on the first floor and found our...

It was quiet, clean and warm in cold days. I had a great time meeting new people from all the world and visiting nice places near the guesthouse on foot and the price was resonable. They also help...

I enjoyed to be there two nights. People are friendly, the garden is gorgeous, five minute by walk to the Nara garden, deers parc and temples. Perfect in winter with there traditionnal warm table...

We stayed in a Japanese style room, with very comfortable futon bedding on a tatami mat floor. The bathroom had recently been renovated and was very nice. Excellent onsen, perfect for rejuvenating...

My family spent the winter in Hakuba and for a special Christmas gift, we gave our 12 year old daughter three cooking classes with Sarasa Bryant Horii, one of the owners of Snowlines Lodge. My...

Me and my boyfriend stayed three nights in a private tatami room. The room was beautiful and had a good heating (Outside it was very cold sometimes), the toilet and shower were clean, and the hosts...

The hotel is located 7 minutes walk from the Takayama train station and bus stop. It is a very nice ryokan. There is an onsen in the same hotel and a bigger one in a nearby hotel (included). Food...

女性のスッタフ(オーナーの彼女かな)が性格悪い。目を合わせてくれないし、ゲストと話す気が無さそう。暗い接客で、仕方なくやってるって感じ。 汚い。枕が臭い。ルームの清掃が治中途半端。 壁が薄い。昭和時代の木造で足音が非常にうるさい。しっかりしてるゲストハウスが沢山あるからここを避けてください。 Do not stay here. The girl in charge is not...

Absolutely go ahead and BOOK this gem in Takamatsu as it’s an enormous blessing to find!! Minutes on foot from a train station (Hanazono, which accepts SuiCA FYI) and many great eats, and not only is...

Big surprise!This building,I had not seen it before. All beautiful wood,unique shape,but it is not strange to me, its a wonderfully calm space.Looks warming and I could sleep very well. The shower...

Stayed 7 nights to explore Tokyo, Yokohama and Nikko. Location is top, in a quiet neighbourhood but also close to Ueno Station (15 min) and Nezu Subway Station (6 min). Owners speak limited English...

My family of 4 (including 2 teenage boys) stayed 3 nights here and wished for longer. Our quad room w/private bathroom was very spacious and had every amenity (yukata, soap, shampoo, hair dryer, hot...

We booked this after reading the many good reviews of the ryokan and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. The managers are wonderfully friendly and helpful and the rooms are nice sized, very...

This ryokan is like a step back in time and truly authentic. Our group stayed for a night in the “Garyu” cabin. The ryokan is in a rural takayama area with lovely river streaming by. Difficult to...

The location right on the street leading to the temple is amazing. The staff are incredibly accommodating. The breakfast and dinner were lavish and outstanding. We had the deluxe room with western...

First off, I wanted to give this place a 5/5…it was a great hotel, and we would stay here again, but it would need to be in a different room. The Onsen was great (though busy). The free popsicles...
