Unique experience in a well kept Ryokan. We enjoyed cycling around the town and checking out Japanese architecture. The breakfasts and dinner at the ryokan were exceptional traditional meals well worth the reasonable cost. Enjoyed the Japanese style bathing and peaceful environment

Interesting Ryokan with History
It’s got Long history. First thing that struck us was hmm .. the lack of guests. The staff that checked us in also served us dinner and breakfast. Luggage had to be lifted and carried not rolled on the tatami.

Nice and quiet stay
Miyazu is a small quiet town. There is not much around when you get off the train station apart from walking to your hotel. Took us about 15 minutes to find the hotel. Surprisingly, there's a shopping centre close by, and bus stops to get to Amanohashidate. Our room is very spacious with sitting areas, bath and toilet, with aircon. The wooden bathtub is like an antique exhibit of this historic building. We just used the public baths. Within 2 minutes walk from the hotel is the seaside park looking across to the Amanohashidate sandbar. The views on the sea are stunning.
Hotel staff are friendly and the breakfast is superb. Even though there was not much to do at night in this small town, we enjoyed our stay very much.

Pleasant sleep in this historical Ryokan
This is a very traditional Ryokan that operates as a local museum during the day.
The rooms are quite spacious, and ours overlooked a beautiful and serene garden. Staff was very friendly and helpful when it came to information on local sights and how to get to them. Bicycles can be rented and are really a nice way to see the area. We biked to Amanohashidate rather than take the available train or bus. My bicycle was in need of some TLC - but rentals from other services seemed to be in the same condition.
Breakfast is very traditional Japanese style and served in a large room on the third floor. As a Westerner I am not used to sitting cross legged on the floor in my yukata and a chair was offered to me. I toughed it out.
Location is quite nice - there are very few places to eat in the immediate area, but quite a few nice places in Amanohashidate - which is about 2km away.
The lobby is filled with books and brochures - many in English - which can provide a sense of history for visitors.
I was quite pleased with my stay.

Not new....and grateful for it!
This was a great place to stay in the area......from the traditional ryokan days. The rooms and bath was clean however there could be renovations or deep cleaning some areas that would make coming back easier! We stayed for three days and hope that it will remain open and serving guests for many years to come. Internet could be stronger and available in the rooms. The service, the atmosphere, and the way that ryokan allows a visitor to touch Japan.....was lovely.

Truly Disappointing Stay
It took me a while to consider how to write this in order to shed some objective light on how this ryokan is poorly run and lack of upkeep. My views are mostly negative and different from those below (relied on which I had unfortunately booked a room for one night at ¥13000 without any meals and was in deep regret):-
- the ladies at the reception were effcient in checking me in.
- no one offered to bring my luggage to my room. Having waited for a while, I ended up carrying it myself up the two flights of stairs which are narow and precarious.
- the carpets in the hallway were full of water stain. Being a culturally preserved structure isn't an excuse for leaving your property in a dilapidated state. Pls live up to your name and reputation!
- the room itself was spacious and clean though.Yet the toilet was smelly probably due to the old drainage system.
- the public bath was disastrous-dirty and apparently no one was there to do the regular cleaning throughout the evening.
- when I checked out at 07:30 the following morning to go to Ine, I again had to carry the suitcase back down. The other reviews mentioned shuttle service between the train station was just a myth in my case. Although a couple was dropped off right right front, neither the lady nor the driver offered to give me a ride when I told them that I was headed for Miyazu station.
This was by far my worst experience in staying at a Japanese ryokan.

Your Hotel is the museum.
Firstly, please read the reviews that other guests have posted about this Hotel ; the good and not so good comments are accurate.
Secondly, I regret not booking a two night stay.
"Experience is everything" - how could you come to Japan and miss out on a Ryokan stopover..??

Excellent!
I travel to Miyazu for sightseeing (Amanohashidate, Ine no Funaya and Kyougamisaki). You can either walk to the Ryokan (about 15 minutes from the Miyazu Train Station) or go by bus (Miyazu Train station to Michinoeki). The bus stop is close to the Ryokan. Also, there is a supermarket nearby. You can get most of the supply in there.
The Male stuff of the ryokan is friendly and helpful. Upon arrival, he gave me some useful information about sightseeing route and traffic .
The room is a bit old and wearing (but it is acceptable, since the ryokan is an very old building) Overall it is quite comfortable.

Traditional and relaxing
This is an incredible place to stay if you wish to immerse yourself with traditional Japanese culture. Everything from the traditional room to the bath house is representative of Japan at its very best. Besides the rice pillow which took some getting used to this hotel was an absolute golden find. Absolutely stay here and visit this beautiful town.
