Ryokan in Yoshino District

"Lovely stay. Everything was amazing"

"Unfortunately we had to stay in a smoking room, it was disgusting the smell because we do not smoke."

"We stayed here 3 nights in April (visiting from NYC). My husband got food poisoning from the hotel the second night (we know this because we shared every meal on our trip except 1). Food in general was not very good… we didn’t realize the ryokan culture is to eat a huge breakfast and dinner at the hotel, so we saw the reviews saying the food isn’t great and didn’t think much of it. The reviews are right! Other thoughts: if you google kii-katsuura one of the main attractions is whale watching, the hotel staff knew nothing about it. We had to do our own research and find a tour (tour co was 20 min away and picked us up from our hotel but just odd hotel staff were unhelpful). Also private outdoor onsen rooms on the first floor do not have a view of the ocean, which was a disappointment, worth it to pay more for a higher floor. But mostly do not recommend this place at all."

"We had a very nice experience on our single night stay. Onsen was refreshing, breakfast was good and the room was clean and quiet. Very professional and friendly staff"

"Very inconvenient method of ordering drinks on patio, required phone and could not just charge to room. Also stayed in same Share property in Kanazawa and had nice happy hour for guests, here offered nothing special. Does not seem to be that friendly to foreign guests, "

"Good stay"

"Great hotel. Not sure if it is every room but ours had a large step into the bathroom which was hard to navigate with a bad hip. Beds were super comfortable and the hot stones in the lobby were great for the feet after a day of walking around"

"Clean, safe, friendly and help. Thanks."

"We were treated like royalty. It was so clean and beautiful. The spa, breakfast, and our room was perfect!"
