I stayed with my boyfriend in the special room "Rokka" with an open-air bath on the top floor special floor. It was impressive to have a fruit platter and tea in the room! Creative kaiseki is satisfying with a large number of items. Since it was a meal in a private room, two people could eat slowly.

Late check-in around 20:00 after work. There are many rare cocktails such as black tea and smoked flavor at the bar. When I told the bartender what I liked, he made me a cocktail that wasn't on the menu! I remember being so impressed with the delicious homemade roast beef! Breakfast was buffet style with galette as main. I drank a lot of alcohol at night, so I took a bath in the morning and prepared my body.

I was able to enjoy my private space slowly. The hot water in the open-air bath in the guest room is very soft, and it feels like a hot spring flowing directly from the source. It's attractive to be able to enter as many times as you want, and you don't have to go to the public bath, so you can enjoy onsen to your heart's content! The retro atmosphere that makes you feel the romance of the Taisho era is wonderful, and the view is also good because it is on a hill. It was a little disappointing that the corridor was cold, but the open-air bath, the food, and the service were wonderful, and my husband was impressed that ryokan was better than I imagined!
