Amazingly peaceful family run place

We love this little place in the mountains in Yoshino - the family / the lady in charge is absolutely wonderful and super hard working. It’s our second stay at this lovely inn and we will come back. Ps please note that check in is strictly at 3pm and if you want their lovely dinner you have to pre book. Highly recommended!

吉野山の絶景を堪能できる、和モダンな老舗旅館

吉野山の標高400mほどのところにあるので、絶景を楽しめます。改装した宿の内観はモダンで素敵な雰囲気でしした。大浴場も麦飯石や吉野銘石を使ってこだわったお風呂です。 地消地産の食事はとても美味しくて、満足しました。特に、宿のカフェからの絶景を眺めながらいただく朝食は、ここでしか味わえないものでしょう。 自然の中でゆっくりと過ごし、美味しい食事が楽しめる旅館でした。 サービスも暖かくて居心地が良かったです。

Rustic log cabin style Ryokan

Great experience after a communication issue at the beginning. It is worth noting that in low season most restaurants in Yoshino will be closed or wil close early, so plan to eat at your Ryokan for all breakfast & dinner meals. The meals prepared at Ryokan Kato were excellent, a real experience in local cuisine. Having breakfast across that road in their seperate restaurant with excellent views across the valley started the day nicely. We were fortunate to have the hot baths to ourselves which were great after a long day of dragging our kids up the hills of Yoshino. We loved the sitting/reading area with the swing hanging from the ceiling and the traditional lamps, very relaxing. Yoshino is worth the extra train rides and Kato was perfect for us. Thank you.

Fantastic location, very comfortable stay.

This hotel was extremely comfortable and good value. The location was fantastic for us, as we arrived and left Hiroshima by train and did 2 day trips using the train, so being right next to the station was amazingly convenient. Lots of shops nearby too. Very comfortable room, not bad size for Japan, and with every amenity you could ask for...toothbrushes, hairdryer, TV, Wi-Fi, kettle, fridge. Really good. Would love to go back sometime.
