"Cosy but highly efficiently run ryokan dating back to the Meiji era. All rooms are Japanese style and the bathing communal."

"You won't find kimono-clad attendants here, but you also won't find wallet-emptying rates." Full review
Frommer's Frommer's
"Rooms are mostly Japanese style, with the best overlooking the garden. Also good bets are five Western-style rooms on the fifth floor with kitchenettes and tiny balconies." Full review
