"Such a nice place! Very relaxing onsen.
My partner and I went there for one night, the room is very nice with it's own seating area (two chairs and a table) by the window.
There are yukata's by the entrance where you can pick one out and use during your visit (I totally wanted to bring one with me home, but didn't of course)
There is ping-pong included, just write your name down at the time slot you want to play. Parking's included.
There's also Karaoke but it cost a bit.
We only had time to...
"Perfect little hotel on the river front with easy access to the entire town. The staff was very friendly and helpful and they took really good care of the hotel. "
"The Ryokan is on the main street of Kinosaki -onsen, with great view and easy access to all the public bathhouses. The customer services were really good. They also provide good dinner and breakfast there. And I appreciated that they allowed me to store my luggages even after checkout."
"Staff unfriendly, No English at all. The center air conditions in my room was no cold air comes out. A small portable air conditioner with very little cold air. The room was very hot . Not even little coffee for me to drink in the morning. I think their cup in the room never been washed, I used their cup to drink water in the morning, I had stomach pain and diarrhea in the noon time. Etc. I would never live there again. "
"Property located about 15 min walk from the main Onsen strip but it provides shuttle service to the strip every half hour. Rooms are large and very nice. Most notable is their buffet dinner and breakfast is excellent with various delicacies almost comparable to high end restaurant but with so much more variety."
"Hotel is close to the station which is very convenient. Location was perfect for reason we came to visit. Room was a nice size for a few nights stay. Check out process was very easy and staff were helpful."
"Beautiful room, very helpful and friendly staff, fabulous breakfast, staff got us a lunch reservation, great access to the 6 onsen. Quiet and lovely town to get restore and rest!"

10/10 Excellent
"This is a wonderful Ryokan. The staff are lovely and the facilities are great. This is a relaxing small Ryokan with great food and we found it to be the highlight of our trip so far, wishing we stayed two nights instead of just one. The dinner was absolutely delicious and though it was a lot of food we loved every course. The private Onsenji were clean and had great soaps and shampoos. This place is a luxurious and relaxing spot that would be a great option for anyone visiting Kinosaki Onsen. "
"Good breakfast, great location, right next to the station & a mall and a bunch of stores & restaurants, they clean your room everyday unless you don’t want it, the only catch is that you can’t be there from 11-3, but then again you can just put up the sign that says no cleaning and they hang a bag of fresh towels on your doorknob. The microwave was convenient, especially since the mall beside it had a specialty food shop on the base floor that sold a great variety of bentos, the laundry machine and dryer also came in handy. They clean the room pretty well too. Also the shower was one of the best parts, there’s a holdable shower head and one that comes down from the roof, you can make it so that water comes out of one of them or even both, I loved that. There’s also a water dispenser, so you don’t need to buy any water "
"Love the size is the hotel, not too big, not too small. Food was great and the hotel was clean with very friendly staff! It made for a real relaxing stay."
"Loved the place, good location. The ramen at the restaurant at the corner is fantastic by the way.
Everything was perfect, staff very friendly and helpful.
Would come back anytime !"
"We had a nice stay in one of the deluxe Japanese rooms. It was a treat for us and we felt well taken care of. We chose the half board option and the food and service felt special. The accommodation is just off the main strip but still very close. We really enjoyed our 2 nights. I would have liked to choose between an upper floor or lower floor as I pictured having a garden attached to our open air bath (I am probably being unrealistic so this is on me!), but it was still very lovely!"
