Everything about staying here was great! I only speak English and Korean and the staff were extremely helpful and accommodating! Especially the manager at the front desk. I got to meet and have simple conversations with the staff. Even the ones that only speak Japanese. They were all friendly and kind regardless of language barriers. The bathrooms, bedrooms, and onsen were very clean and comfortable. The meals were delicious and well timed. I will definitely be back and I am even thinking about coming back for my honeymoon!

During the winter, when the sun goes early, it is nearly impossible to spot the hotel from the road. No light near the hotel sign. Staffs are friendly and nice but this hotel is overrated! With the similar price, I could've found the hotel with a private onsen in the room and free limitless drinks plus a halfboard.

The hotel is located a little further away from the JR station. While the hotel offers pick up service from and to the JR station, it is accessible only by taxi (about 800 yens) if you want to go out to the town center. Wifi signal is too weak, and virtually not usable.

A bit out of the way, but they offer a free pick up from the station. The beds were nice and so was the onsen. The dinner was very small compared to other ryokan and average overall. Breakfast was a bit better. Other than that, the WiFi was very spotty and couldn’t keep a connection for very long.

Cheap dinner & breakfast, location is bad.

Luckily we only stayed one night, the room was good and has a balcony facing a nice view. The osen area was very small and DIRTY. The dinner & breakfast were unexpected so bad, small potion and the beef were not fresh. No coffee for breakfast! Cheap!

Stay at Reimei

Overall, a good stay. Environment was quiet and peaceful. Staff were courteous and helpful. However, driving to the hotel was not easy as roads were narrow and winding.

Terrible experience

My stay was not good at all. In spite of reserving the best room (it was our honeymoon), there were couple of issues in our stay: 1. no water running in the bathroom (the plumbing system got frozen) - had to go to a shared bathroom 2. Dinner space was crowded and its half board meal didn’t even include miso soup or desert. Did not look like a ryokan 3. Staff in the restaurant was not friendly at all. All the ryokan I’ve been to would explain the menu but on this one they were would only serve it as if we were in a canteen 4. The worst was the shuttle service to the train station: the driver would drive like crazy and very aggressively. I’ve never seen such a drive before in Japan. It was even dangerous to the pedestrians and other cars around 5. In spite of all the issues in our room, they would not even offer a small “sorry note”, or a token of appreciation Overall, this has been the worst hotel I’ve ever been in Japan! Wouldn’t recommend it for anyone. It did not offer the Japanese omotenashi and it looked like being run by foreigners
