Prefettura di Kumamoto, Giappone: hotel romantici

Pros- spacious villa, quality bedding and large private indoor onsen( see picture 13). We also like the public outdoor onsen in the sister ryokan nearby. There is a little cafe there you can buy drinks and coffee, run by an adorable old couple, very nice and polite. We spent a lot of time there just chilling and listening to the music. Cons- Living room: we were only able to book the western style villa as it’s a little last minute trip. The living room is basic, bland, with sofa, instead or tatami. Our room 512 is next to the car park. Parking lot in front of your main door is not very pleasant. Food : just soso. Nothing extraordinary. See picture. No horse sashimi, the presentation of the steak is really ordinary - disappointing. Perhaps because we had such an amazing meals in the previous ryokan this became a massive letdown. Dinner served in a large public dining room, lack of the privacy and intimacy ther ryokan provide ( we had private dining room in another ryokan 野之花during this trip). I got to see other couples but also feeling like we are being watched. Service- served by young people, not much attentiveness you would expect in traditional ryokan, lack of the warmth and ritual. Reception- 3 star at best. A basic room with uncomfortable chair while you wait to be checked in. We arrived around 2:30pm, and was told that check in can only start at 3pm, and please wait. So we sat at the hard chair and forced to watch the promotional video until 3pm. Conclusion - 3.5 star ryokan, not the most exciting or exclusive villa we have stayed. Maybe it would get better once the trees grow thicker and staff better trained. The sister Ryokan nearby has better feel of environment and feels more established.

Il personale di servizio è molto amichevole. Quando siamo arrivati alla porta principale, ci riceviamo, ci aiutiamo a prendere i bagagli, ci portano al ristorante per mangiare, e ci presentano ogni volta diversi tipi di cibo e metodi di cucina. Il metodo di cottura per la cena è molto speciale, costruire il fuoco sulla sabbia e fare la barba, e il sapore è molto unico.Dopo il pranzo, ci portiamo alla stanza e spiegazioni per uno, molto professionale.La posizione è più lontana, ma il cibo può essere considerato una caratteristica. L'hotel ha un bacino pubblico, ma non siamo andati, perché la stanza ha un bacino privato e la temperatura dell'acqua è molto comoda.Rispetto ad altri hotel di marchio ad alto prezzo, il rapporto prezzo è molto di prima classe, ma la posizione è davvero più lontana.
