Amazing, old ryokan very close to Gora Station. Nice and welcoming staff. It was my first time at ryokan, and what an experience! I enjoyed the private onsen with a view over the mountains. There was rain and thunder, which made it very dramatic, and in the end there was a rainbow.
The room was spacious, had basic amenities. Green tea, which was switched to a fresh pot after dinner and breakfast, while they also made my bed and put it away again. So smooth.
The food was overwhelming in both quantities and quality. Beautiful meat, fish, shellfish, garnish and tofu. The attention to detail was incredible. They had even printed a menu in my mother tongue!
I only stayed for one night, but had I known what a special place it is, I would have planned one more night.
