“Worth every penny”
+We loved it! The family are all so freindly and helpfull. The Riyoken is very clean, newly renovated and looks lively. We had a private onsen which was wonderfull and very clean. The japanese style room was very comfortable and soacious. The dinner was exquisite!! At keast 8 or 9 courese of jaoanese food, freshly picked and made. A real festive meal! Very special! And breakfast was no less than wonderfull! Again 8 types of food, beautifully served and tasty. We took the private tour of the village with the owner which was very nice. All in all a wondefull stay and highly recommended despite the price being a bit high in comparison. Worth every penny!

“Delightful staff,unique and fantastic all around!”
+The quality of service was exceptional. We loved the ambiance, friendly staff, our room, and the onsens. The dinner and breakfast meals were five star,,. One of a kind in every way. So good.
−We loved everything but maybe the only room for improvement would be to have a better view from the onsen windows because they steam up and it’s so beautiful outside but really everything was fantastic. Will recommend highly.

“AMAZING!!!! Absolutely perfect”
+The family who runs this beautiful little four-room hotel is simply wonderful. They put so much love and care into every part of the experience , the stay, the food, the presentation, and, above all, making their guests feel truly at home. It is exceptional. Simply unbeatable! Thank you a million times for all the love, warmth and dedication you put into what you do. It has been a true pleasure and a privilege to meet you and to experience your beautiful home. Without a doubt, the best hotel we have stayed at during our 12 days in Japan. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We hope to come back very soon! ❤️

“Estancia inolvidable en un entorno precioso”
+Es el sitio más especial en el que me he alojado en cualquiera de mis viajes y por supuesto en Japón. Edificio de más de 140 años totalmente auténtico y cuidado con un mimo y gusto excepcionales. El entorno es idílico y cuenta con dos onsen privados donde puedes acceder con facilidad porque es un hotel con muy poquitas habitaciones. Incluye cena y desayuno con productos locales y de temporada. Pero lo más brutal ha sido la amabilidad de la familia. Nos sentimos en casa desde que entramos y, además, el dueño te hace una ruta de una hora por el pueblo... Estancia inolvidable. Lo recomendaré a cada persona que venga a Japón. Repetiré sin duda si vuelvo al país.
