A traditional ryokan in the Kaga Onsen area. Reviews most frequently mention the hot springs and attentive service.
Across booking sites, guests commonly praise the 'comfortable and serene hot springs' and 'warm staff hospitality'. Free shuttle to and from Kaga Onsen Station is convenient, and the lobby offers welcome drinks, afternoon tea, and evening performances. Kaiseki dinners and breakfasts with local seasonal ingredients are neatly presented and highly satisfying. Rooms are spacious with great river views, repeatedly noted.
