    Wow! It was fantastic. The staff were lovely. We got to choose from a variety of patterns of yakata (robes) which was really special. The room (with an ensuite toilet and sink!) was massive. We were provided with 5 futons so we could pile them on...

    Such a charming Ryokan, with friendly attentive staff. The Onsen were wonderful, especially the outdoors Onsen. We also visited the nearby Tanigawa ridge fro hiking, which I can recommend.

    Super clean and organized. Very good meals. Loved the tea supply. Onsen was nice. Well managed. Although I was there alone, they were clearly very kid and baby friendly and equipped accordingly. MST be great for young parents.

    Nakaya Ryokan was the best place we stayed on our trip to Japan. The hotel is beautiful, the rooftop onsens were a highlight and the staff were incredibly helpful, friendly, and welcoming. We will 100% come back one day.
