A gorgeous property, top notch and caring service, wonderful food and a beautiful onsen. This is a spectacular place for a stay on Miyajima. We arrived early and our bags were quickly stored. Check in was smooth. The room was large and had a beautiful view of the foliage on the mountainside and sound of the nearby creek. It was so quiet and peaceful! We had included dinner which was delicious as was breakfast. The onsen is magical. Everything about Iwaso was fantastic. Stay here for a traditional ryokan experience. Highly recommended!!

The hotel was great but we could not book dinner on both the nights we were there and there are really limited places to eat on the islands. Staff were nice but not that helpful. The room was lovely and basic as expected. The onsen were lovely

An amazing experience. One of the highlights of our entire trip to Japan. Miyajima itself is extremely touristy and crowded, but still worth it for the views, shrines, temples, street food and the pesky deer. This hotel is a haven of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle yet only a very short walk from the action. The staff guide you patiently in etiquette for a Ryokan. Both the evening meal and breakfast are cultural and culinary experiences and the onsen baths were lovely. Sleeping on the futon and tatami mats was much more comfortable than I expected. It’s not cheap by any means, but I think it is well worth it for the overall experience.

Worth an overnight stay on Miyajima

Lovely stay - as a first time visitor to Japan, it was great to have a night at some more traditional lodging. Iwaso was beautiful and the service excellent. The fixtures in the private bathroom in my room were somewhat dated but everything was very clean, and I really used the Onsen anyway - also, the historic/classic styling of the property was what I wanted. I didn’t find the futons particularly comfortable, but am used to western beds. But what I really felt like I was paying for here was location - a short walk to town, beautifully set right along the river. Could hear the stream from my room (which looked out into the trees, I was in the newer/larger building) and loved using the outdoor Onsen next to the water. And, the best part was being up late/early after the hordes of day trippers had left - very peaceful. It also made it easier to get to the ropeway right at opening and avoid the lines (property is along the path up to Mt Misen.) The more expensive lodging options looked beautiful and probably worth the splurge - just outside my budget.

Il Ryokan IWASO è un'esperienza autentica e indimenticabile, immersa nella tranquillità dell'isola di Miyajima. La sua posizione, nel cuore dell'isola e circondata dal verde, offre un rifugio di pace. ​La struttura è comodamente raggiungibile dal porto in soli cinque minuti a piedi, ma per chi preferisce, è disponibile una navetta gratuita. La posizione permette di esplorare facilmente l'isola, godendosi passeggiate serali o mattutine prima dell'arrivo della folla di turisti. ​Abbiamo soggiornato nell'edificio storico, in particolare nella stanza 201. La camera era bella ed abbastanza curata, ma non nei dettagli che ci si aspetterebbe da una struttura di questo livello. La camera aveva un incantevole terrazzo che si affacciava direttamente sul bosco e sul ruscello adiacente alla struttura. ​L'esperienza del soggiorno è arricchita da diversi tocchi tradizionali: Vengono forniti abiti tipici per la cena e per muoversi all'interno del ryokan. Durante la cena, la camera viene preparata con futon. All'arrivo, viene offerto un tè freddo e in omaggio vengono lasciate delle borsette di stoffa, un gesto molto apprezzato. (Piccola nota negativa: Vista la caratura ed il costo della struttura, ci saremmo aspettati qualche attenzione in più). ​ L'Onsen è uno dei punti di forza del ryokan: pulito, ben fornito di prodotti e dotato sia di una vasca interna che di una esterna. Quella all'aperto, in particolare, offre un'esperienza sensoriale unica, con il rumore del ruscello.

Verblijven in deze Ryokan uit 1854 is als logeren in een museum - op een positieve manier. Het was een unieke ervaring. Er wordt welkomst thee geserveerd op de kamer, het diner en ontbijt worden geserveerd in het restaurant. De Onsen is ook zeer goed uitgerust.
