Located in Yugawara, Izuya Ryokan is a traditional Japanese inn with a long history. Notable for being built by a palace carpenter, it appeals to travelers who appreciate the antique atmosphere that comes with age.
Guests consistently respond positively to the open-air baths and onsen facilities. The ability to relax in the hot springs is considered the primary charm of this property. Some guests also appreciate the host's hospitality and the historic character of the building itself.
