Authentic Ryokans In Aishima

"Amazing retreat time at Hoshino KAI Nagato. There are programs / activities provided that are light and with small memento takeaway. The dinner and breakfast experiences were phenomenon. Staff are very friendly and capable answering anything. The onsen on-site is healing and the space is very relaxing and clean. A real retreat where mind and body and truly relax."

"Amazing view, great food and nice service"

"Unexpected and a well preserved relic of the past! Felt like we were transported back in time. Amazing location, beautiful views, big rooms, great baths, many amenities and conveniences. Staff were helpful, efficient and polite"

"Hagi Yado no Tomoe is an elegant traditional inn. While the outside is pleasant and clean, once inside you will enter a rare and elegant world. The facilities are immaculate and it is clear every decision is made with exceptional taste. The staff are polite, extremely kind and respectful of privacy. The rooms are gorgeous, and the multiple course Kaiseki dinners are delicious and incredibly beautiful. They also have a lovely selection of local pottery on display for sale. Today,upon departure, I did their sake brewery tour. The guide and staff driving couldn’t have been nicer, and the sake master was so down to earth and kind. I also enjoyed a sake tasting and purchased a small bottle to take home. After the tour they recommended a lovely place for lunch, making sure I knew where to catch my but to return to Yamaguchi City. While in Hagi I particularly enjoyed my visit to Toukouji Temple and the surrounding area. My stay at Hagi Yado no Tomoe was delightful in every way. I hope to return."

"I'd never stayed in a ryokan before, but have always heard what it was like. I can confidently say, after being in this one, that ryokans are an exceptional place to relax. The traditional rooms are spacious, has a great views, and sleeping in a futon on tatami is a classic for a reason! The amenities are very nice too, with two whole building's worth of stuff! A public bath, karaoke, arcade, bowling, an izakaya, etc. Probably the only thing I would like is wifi in the room (it's only otherwise found in the lobby). But other than that, a wonderful experience I am glad to have had!"

"Sumptuous breakfast and dinner. Onsen in the balcony with excellent view."

"Japanese trad room with lovely staff and retro restaurant Lovely experience "

"Worth every cent we paid as it had two large beds and plenty of room to move around. The small breakfast was good to start the day of and the free parking was close by."

"What a great refreshing spot to find during a hot and busy trip. The owners go over the top to ensure your stay is everything you hope. I can’t say enough good things about them. Thank you "
