The staff were lovely. We paid for private onsen with a massage after, highly recommend.
Dinner was fun and tasty, beautiful presentation.
Views from the room were stunning, the open air bath photos are a bit misleading, it's VERY small and deep so no view can be appreciated from the tub.
The bed was ok, certainly more comfortable than a mat (I presume) but the pillows were atrocious, I suppose they are traditional with the buckwheat filling but made for a rough sleep.
Loved hanging out in the robes and was a great last night in Japan for my partner and I
It is a beautiful resort, with an aged but quaint look and feel. There is a private spa which can be booked so your group of friends can share a bath. Food is very exquisite, and traditional Japanese ryokan style.
