Luxury Onsen Ryokan

About Luxury Onsen Ryokan

Luxury onsen “ryokan” offer the kind of accommodation that can be experienced only at such a traditional Japanese inn, with their elaborately designed guest quarters, predominently Japanese-style rooms, spectacular views from the windows, historic furnishings, and well-kept gardens.
You can also enjoy a diverse range of onsen, even such luxury as your very own open-air bath adjoining your room, where you can view spectacular scenery from a private hot spring. There are also resorts where you can relax in an outdoor bath while watching the sunrise or sunset, and places where there are multiple baths in the building so that you can enjoy a mini hot-spring tour.

Another feature of ryokan is that you can have meals in your room, allowing you to relax without worrying about those around you. Feast your eyes on the beautifully arranged dishes and savor the fresh, seasonal sea and mountain ingredients unique to each area, while relaxing and enjoying a luxurious moment, forgetting about everyday life.
Luxury onsen ryokan are also particularly attractive to foreign travelers for their world-famous attentive hospitality, with professional proprietresses and attendants on staff. If you have any questions during your stay, please don’t hesitate to ask. We introduce luxury onsen ryokan, where you can stay without worry even if you do not speak Japanese.
