Independent, Sakata hotels

"私個人のアクシデントに対し惜しみなくご協力くださり、スタッフの温かいケアが有り難かったです また、ホテル外観と周囲の実った稲穂が融合した美しい景観、レセプション周辺の広くて明るい空間、地震で倒壊した家屋の瓦を使用した中庭のアート、温泉やサウナにも癒されました ただ、上階からドスンドスンという音が真夜中を含めて何度も聞こえた事と、紙管という材質ゆえに致し方ないとは思うのですが、特にイスが劣化により清潔感が無く感じられた点がとても残念でした"

"Old hotel but clean with great service. The breakfast buffet was really nice with so much food! "

"Nice Hotel, Good Food, Nice Staff. Clean Onsen facilities. Well maintained, but quite dated inside. Only big problem was my room smelled really bad of damp. Abit pricey for what it is, but the staff were nice and the food was good. "

"Nice, low-key guesthouse. Great value. Wonderful, kind owner! "

"Beautiful location, outstanding tatami room with good en suite bathroom facilities, and extremely friendly staff. Wifi connection in room was very weak (had to go to hall to connect). Not many English-speaking staff but made do with Google-translate. Would have appreciated food/snack options in bar but bought snacks at well-stocked gift store and small snack outlet on street where they have nice hot spring foot baths next to the river. The garden is beautiful and the private onsen was excellent. Probably easiest to visit by car (plentiful space in their off site parking lot); the train option would be cumbersome. Beautiful rose garden associated with the shrine up the hill; in full bloom at the end of June. Small restaurants nearby."

"Absolutely over the top 3 day stay at this ryokan. We opted for meals inclusive and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and quantity of food. The staff was amazingly attentive! Please consider a pickup at Shinjo station, we took a cab, there is a public bus but it was a two hour wait and we had luggage. Can arrange for luggage storage at Shinjo station? When train service is restored from Shinjo to semi onsen station perhaps that will be a viable option. Yumeminoyado will pick up at Semi onsen station with prior notice. Email communications with the hotel was responsive also, appreciated that! Overall a fantastic stay, highly recommend! "

"Nice stay. "

"All ok except that wifi cannot work on high floor. "

"One night stay on route to final destination. Great position near train station where we had a delicious dinner. "
