Các đánh giá Kinokuniya Ryokan

良くも悪くもない

A different kind of experience than your usual accomodation. We kinda expect that this ryokan is old as stated over 300 yrs old. We want to experience something of a japanese traditional service, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The ryokan has remained its old character. Admired the collection of antique and unique pieces on display. We booked the Japanese futtons. It's comfortable. The dusty ceiling and wall has probably added to its old character. We're fine with that as the toilet and beds are clean. We love the private bath or onsen although we have to pay extra for that. The location is quite remote and going somewhere else will be a challenge. The best thing we've ever done is to hire a car to take us around. The surroundings are quite mystical so make sure go for a nice walk and explore the place. I imagine the setting of Spirited Away. The only disappointment we have is when they cancelled all our breakfast inclusions for the third day. We only missed out the second day breakfast as we have to travel to Yamaguchi Prefecture and we are early riser. Breakfast at 8am is quite late for us. The gentleman at the reception had assumed that we are cancelling all our breakfast inclusions during our stay. We are so looking forward to our breakfast on our last day until they told us that we can't have it anymore as it's been cancelled. Understand that there some miscommunication and lost in translation somewhere. It left us disappointed overall considering that we have paid over AUD$800 per night. Not cheap. We have stayed in other ryokan in Kyoto before and they are always very accomodating and I would say that it's worth what you have paid for. Breakfast has also have western or japanese tradional breakfast options. This ryokan doesn't give you any choices unless you say that you have food allergies. Overall, it's not worth what we have paid for.

We prefer a small ryokan like Kinokuniya than a hotel type onsen. Even though it looks old, but this is what you come here for. We have three of us in a very spacious room. I happened to have an online meeting and it worked well. We booked with 2 meals - breakfast and dinner. As expected, the food is great. However, it's very traditional so make sure that you expect for something different than your usual.

Perhaps it's the Japanese in me, but I think if you're going to stay in an onsen (hot springs) area like Hakone, you need to stay in a ryokan. Jamie W. and I stayed in a nice one in Kyoto several years back, though that was on the higher end. Founded in 1715 as a stop on the Hakone Hachiri, this inn is over 300 years old and quite traditional like stepping back into a 1950's Yasujiro Ozu movie. We reserved a large tatami room (248 sq ft) with a private bathroom and mountain view for a reasonable ¥21,780. It was spartan by Western standards though there was a TV screen we never turned on. We also had a couple of chairs next to the window. Otherwise we slept on thin futons that laid flat on the tatami. It can be challenging on the back if you're not used to it. We were quite surprised to be informed they were not serving dinner or breakfast, the usual service at a ryokan, presumably because they had so few guests staying overnight. Unfortunately we were in an isolated area and not logistically close to the more touristed area next to Lake Ashi. We thought we'd go to bed hungry, but luckily we found the nearby Doll House Museum had a cafe that provided a hot meal. The must-do was reserving a half-hour in the private bath filled with the natural hot springs water. It was across the road from the ryokan in its own cabin. There were two discrete baths. One was the hydrogen carbonate spring which was kept at a high temperature that made it difficult to stay for more than a few minutes. The other was the sulfur spring which was comparatively cooler and consequently more relaxing.

フロントのある正面建物はまだマシですが、増築を繰り返したであろう建物に行くとボロさが目立ちます 敷地内に廃墟の建物があります 温泉の泉質は、箱根でもトップだと思ってますが、料理が美味しくなく、次の料理までの間隔がとても長いです 泉質はいいのに残念です 再来はないです

Belle localisation juste a 5mn de motohakone et 10mn du musée en plein air. Très facile d’accès avec le système de car. Le ryokan est Très vieillot, il a été rénové certainement aux alentours de 1990 mais globalement propre. Attention aux Onsen privée : cela est plus problématique, des vis sont hyper apparentes et dangereuses pour les pieds. Le personnel et particulièrement la dame âgée est très peu courtoise pour ne pas dire impolie avec ses clients. Je pense qu’elle a oublié que nous étions ses clients. Quand aux repas, le dîner et encore plus le petit déjeuner sont très traditionnels et non adaptés à nos goûts.
