This hotel is the most beautiful hotel we have ever stayed at. The staff were helpful and always very friendly. The breakfast option was extraordinary, a private banquet of traditional Japanese dishes. The hot spring is beautiful, a rock pool flowing with healing water, always available. It is right on the Hida River which brings a soft tranquility. The walk into town is short, 15 or 20 minutes brings you to the center of town, with many dining options, temples and shrines. A truly memorable and relaxing experience.

Pampering

If you see this review. Just book it if is within your budget. They take care of everything once you stepped into Gero station. Jus hopped into any Taxi waiting at the station and your retreat begins. We stepped into the inn and didnt think of going any where until our check out time.

정통 료칸의 정석! 부담스럽지 않은 친절함과 세심한 배려에 이틀밤을 편하게 보내고 왔습니다. 게로역과의 거리는 있는 편이지만 택시 무료 이용 시간을 잘 이용하면 편하게 이동 가능하고 도보로 이동도 힘들지 않았습니다. 온천수가 정말 좋았어요. 가이세키도 만족스러웠어요! 제대로 효도한 여행이었습니다.
