Amazing ryokan!!!!
We loved it here so much!!!! The inn is so beautiful and right in the middle of all the onsens. Also includes its own onsen. I have no complaints about this ryokan. I didn’t catch the name of the woman who checked us in but she was soooo lovely and spoke great English as well :) 10/10

Overall a lovely place to stay. The staff was very kind and accommodating. The room was spacious and the breakfast was so cheap and delicious.
The room was formerly a smoking room so it smelled very strong of cigarettes so that was not too enjoyable. And the Onsen wasn’t very well kept up compared to the other locations.
Otherwise the location and price were great.

Wonderful stay & friendly staff!
Everything was excellent! Front desk ladies were friendly even though I only speak a little Japanese. She even had one of the staff who speaks my language to help me. And there was a staff lady taught me and helped me dressed yukata.
The room was amazing, clean, stylish, and each room has its own A/C.
The only minus point was the wooden Japanese sandal they offer was really hard to walk in compare to what I saw on the street of other tourists wore from other hotels.
Overall a very pleasant stay and would definitely recommend this place.

The property itself is spacious and the room I booked was well appointed; it is close to all the baths and an easy walk from the train station. The staff are extremely friendly and courteous- embodying true Japanese approach interactions.They gave tips for eating out and experiencing Onsen culture.
I highly recommend staying here. I would stay here again on another visit to lovely Kinosaki Onsen.
A special thank you to Kaki-san, Hara-san and Satoh-san. I appreciated your warmth and genuine welcome!

Truly wonderful
We had a loveliest time here. Kaki San and her staff were super friendly and helpful, made everything easy for us. Some of the staff spoke little English but were all proficient with Google translate.
Making reservations for dinner and breakfast was a great idea - there are many restaurants in town but eating at the ryokan is an experience in itself, plus the food here was excellent!
Being in the middle of the town made it easy to go to all the onsens - the ryokan provides a free pass to all seven onsens till 1pm on the checkout day.
The ryokan's own private bath is reservable with a fee and is totally worth it. Only four slots each day so it's advisable to reserve early if you can.
We would definitely book again if we are to visit Kinosaki next time.

A great experience in Kinosaki
The ryokan was run by very helpful and friendly staff who ensured we would enjoy of the local baths. The place was well-maintained and our room was spacious (10 tatami).

Perfect stay in kinosaki onsen. Free pass to all 7 public baths. Super traditional and quite a blast from the past. Everything is very old school and charming, with the exception of the toilet (brand new as Japan does).

We loved our stay! Beautiful property in a very convenient location, but above all, the staff was absolutely wonderful. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful time. I had a careless oversight and left our train tickets in the room and a staff from the hotel ran all the way to the station to hand us our ticket just in time. Incredible! Thank you so much! We will always stay here when we visit Kinosaki!

Couldn’t have started our stay any better with a warm and detailed welcome from a real person who spoke good English. She was funny, warm and went out of her way to be helpful. Then we had a lovely introduction to our room with a lesson on how to wear a yukata and were made and served a pot of tea. It felt such a cultural welcome and the room was a very Japanese cultural room with futons, mats as low furniture. We were given free passes to all the onsens in town and had a lovely time visiting them all in our yukatas. Unfortunately the restaurant at the venue was booked out for the meals we were there for- obviously the other guests knew better. The local shops open late and finish early but the concierge warned us about this and gave us recommendations and made bookings for us.
Le personnels est particulièrement serviable et aimable. Ils nous ont beaucoup aidé. Si vous voulez faire une activité vous pouvez demandez à l'accueil. Ils ont parfois des réductions. Notre chambre était incroyable et la dame qui nous a donné notre chambre a pris le temps de tout bie nous expliquer malgré notre arrivée tardive. Merci beaucoup pour votre accueil !
