Location. Pretty hard to get to, we were lucky the front desk staff were so kind to drive us to the location.

The interior and all in the property.

Nada, todo perfecto

We stayed here one night and it was the best decision ever. While it is expensive, it is worth every yen, the rooms were beautiful, service impeccable, free amenities, free private sauna, and traditional breakfast brought straight to your room. It was perfect for a night after a hike down from Mitsumine shrine in the rain and thunder. HIGHLY recommend!! Thanks a lot

Fantastic service with a smile. Very impressed! Favourite part of the trip thus far!

Everything! The staff are very friendly and kind. The private bath with sauna and the beautiful house that we have been. The ryokan is exactly how we wanted to have for our japanese experience, clean and so comfortable with a nice wood bath. Included also an awesome dinner and breakfast! Besides that, the map with a passport is a great idea to know the local shops and very welcome people. By far the best staying! Thank you so much!

I believed I was assigned with the biggest and largest house (they have different houses). Very nice decor and nice garden. Enjoyed a relax and quiet night. Traditional japanese style breakfast, taste good.

To nitpick, the place is few hundred metres from Seibu Chichibu station with some rolling hills. The staff did sent us to the station when we checked out though.

Super friendly and patient staff despite a bit of language barrier. Complimentary alcohol and drinks in fridge. Cozy place and wonderful breakfast. The lodging is participating in a local tourism programme that provides some perks and benefits when patronising certain stores / places. I particularly like the 5-min sake tasting experience at Buko Shuzo.

We had some trouble finding the room. Check-in is at a different location. They give you a map, but the address of the actual room had a typo. Short version: if they offer you a ride to the room, take it!

The rooms were great. Tatami sleeping area plus a traditional sunken hearth room. The attached bathroom had a cool wooden bathtub. Booking this room also gets you freebies and discounts at nearby restaurants, bars, and sentos. The bento breakfast was a work of art.

This place has so much more potential. It's all nice and old, but it lacks thoughtful touch, which is usually common in Japan. Examples, there is no small table or surface in the room, no hooks (only 4 hangers and a towel rack), the bathroom was ice cold, there is free sake but no cups, etc Understandable this is a traditional house, but it is very bare and some basic comfort would be nice. Maybe it would be somewhat better during summer. The house itself is another 10 min walk from the reception and the town itself (not the location shown on the map). Do note, the photos show various of their properties, but not necessarily the one you may be staying at.

Nice, old restored house Clean Free 45 minutes sauna/bath included (but a 10 min walk away) Free drinks (beer, sake, water, coffee/tea) The breakfast has a good variety (although cold)

Nothing, really. The worst thing I can say is that if you have bad knees or a morbid fear of heights, the old-style stairs would be too steep and challenging..

The staff were lovely. The traditional room (named Takumi; a small house) was so great to experience and was the reason we stayed there. The local tour was fun and a great way to find places around town.

THERE WAS NOTHING TO DISLIKE EXCEPT BOOKING.COM NEEDS TO HAVE A ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE HOTEL NAME!!!!!

THE BREAKFAST WAS GREAT. WISH WE COULD HAVE STAYED FOR MORE THAN ONE NIGHT. I WILL RETURN TO SPEND A MINIMUM OF TWO TO THREE NIGHTS. THE OMOTENASHI WAS EXCELLENT

Great traditional private room in a 2 room Villa with a shared mini kitchenette

Steep stairs, not good for the elderly. Breakfast was great but cold. Would be better if the garden had more trees and flowering plants.

Charming inn of renovated old houses with a common area that comes with free water and other beverages. Spacious rooms with designated functions. Perfect for families and couples. We ate our breakfast at the washitsu, drank the free beer in the living room and had a relaxing bath. We also used the private onsen and sauna. The inn booked us a reservation at a nearby restaurant. You can keep your luggage at the reception area or sent nearby the station as you continue to explore the town. Great location, restaurants, shops, convenient stores are just a walk away.

It is not a hotel at all. Booking.com should have done site inspection before listing this property in your website. It really spoiled booking.com image

Nothing
