Find hotels in Ashiu, Nantan from $57

"Excellent service, rooms, food although on the expensive side as I booked a room with private onsen."

"It was a relaxing stay. Food was amazing. Convenient and easy for non Japanese people to get to and also very accommodating staff. My only complaint with my stay would be the fact the beds were not that comfortable. Especially considering the prices being asked."

"The shuttle to pickup/drop off to and from Ogoto Onsen Station was great; otherwise, it would be a 10 minutes walk with luggage! Our tatami room was very traditional and offered a great view of the lake. Only downside is no blackout curtain so the room is nice and BRIGHT at 6 o'clock in the morning! The 10-course (I think) dinner was interesting and filling; it took us 2 1/2 hours to finish. One note though, the massage was not very pleasant but then again, the appointment was 10pm so I wasn't expecting a great masseuse at that time. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience."

"It was my first time visiting Kyoto and I picked this hotel due to its great reviews. The staff was so kind -always attentive and helpful regarding any needs that I had. I was always greeted the second I entered the lobby as well as around the hotel. I booked the garden view room -it was amazing. It had a large balcony that opened up into the Japanese garden that the hotel perfected! There was so much space -two bathrooms, a living room, a tatami mat area, and a double bed. I am a clean freak, and I don't think I've seen a cleaner hotel room in my life. They also offered great pajamas. I utilized the sauna Cypress room -it was essentially your own private spa. Make sure to book their saunas in advance as their reservations do fill up. Breakfast was included every day. The food was good (they had American options and Japanese options). The restaurant overlooked the Japanese garden. I could sit there forever. The only downside of the hotel is that it is a bit far from the downtown area. I utilized Uber and there was one night that I couldn't get a car for so long (I tried for hours) that I ended up missing my dinner reservation. There is a train close-by however you do have to trek uphill a bit to and from the train. I was also with my mother who couldn't do hilly walks so the train wasn't an option. The car ride to the downtown area was about 30 minutes with traffic. Sometimes more or less. I still think the hotel was worth it and would stay again despite the location. "

"Hotel property was beautiful and located near convenient train station to utilize during our stay. Felt very welcomed by staff and greatly appreciated assistance with our luggage shipping to our next booked location. "

"Wonderful night in an authentic Ryokan"

"My husband and I stayed here for part of our anniversary in Japan and absolutely loved it! Such an authentic experience and surrounded by natural beauty."

"We loved this hotel so much. The people running the hotel are all so kind and personable. There is a slight language barrier but it was not a problem at all. The room was a great size and very comfortable. The breakfast was great and offered to every guest. You can also purchase a dinner. If you want an authentic traditional style hotel this is the place! We loved the men and women’s onsen. The hotel is set in a gully out of the city next to a river. You can take a bus to the main city or the hotel also offers a shuttle to the train station or other specific locations. If we return to Japan we would definitely make this one of our stops again! "

"The staff is incredibly kind and helpful, the food was great and the overall experience felt very authentic and more relaxed than I expected. The private baths were incredible! "
