Riverside Uedakan

"It was quite a long time ago, but my mother used to work at Ueda-kan, so this was my first time using it. I think that when my mother worked there, it wasn't part of the Itoen Hotel group yet. I don't know if it was due to a staff shortage, but when I checked in and entered my room, the futon was already laid out. I've stayed at many different places before, but this was the first time I'd experienced something like that. The buffet had a wide variety of food and was delicious."

"Ottima esperienza in un ryokan tradizionale! Ho dato 4/5 stelle per la posizione perché non ci sono viste particolari (è proprio nel centro della città), ma le altre caratteristiche sono più che compensare per questo. Tutti i membri del personale che abbiamo incontrato erano molto cortesi e professionali. I pasti erano tradizionali e ci hanno presentati a molti piatti interessanti. Onsens erano piccoli, ma dato che questo hotel dispone solo di otto camere, non sono mai affollato. Anche i miei cuori sono aperti per la notte che ho apprezzato in modo particolare."

"Cost-cutting measures were noticeable. I went to the hot springs two minutes before 3:30 PM, as I was told it would be open then, but it was pitch black. I returned to my room, contacted the front desk, and they turned on the lights. I was staying in what was advertised as the only suite in the building, so I expected to have breakfast there as well as dinner, but I was with a family with children and it wasn't very relaxing. I wish they had at least provided private dining rooms for meals on the special suite floor. The evacuation route map posted on the room door was also from before the renovation. Dinner was delicious, with local ingredients skillfully prepared."
