Hotels Near Chiyo no Taki Fall in Nagato

The inns at Tawarayama Onsen have an outdoor bath system, with Machi-no-Yu and Byakko-no-Yu, and in winter you head to the baths in your traditional Japanese kimono. The hot spring town has a small stone-paved road that is just wide enough for one car to pass, with several inns on either side, giving it a nice atmosphere. Izumiya Ryokan is located near Machi-no-Yu, and the food is homely yet delicious, with fresh sashimi and fish dishes, making it a recommended inn that will make you want to drink alcohol. The toilets are shared and have a shower, and the only downside is that the futon is thin and feels cold. This was my second time staying here, so I stuck my futon in the kotatsu this time to keep myself warm, so there were no problems both nights.

　The nearest station is ＪＲ Nagato Yumoto Station on the Mikasa Line, but if you walk from there, you feel a little far away. This time, I took the bus to Shimonoseki by Sanden Transport Semi Express from the west exit of Nagato City Station on the ＪＲ Sanin Line and got off at the entrance of Nagato Onsen. The hotel is right across the left hand. (If you contact the hotel side in advance, it is said that the transfer bus will come. However, the station building is old and the hand washing at the station is difficult to say clean, so please be careful for women) The room I stayed in is ”away Nishi Kyo Tei”. It was the upper floor of the same building, but even on a day when there were many groups, the room was quiet and I could taste the atmosphere of staying in ”away”. The room was 10 tatami mats, and the room I stayed this time had a subsequent 6 tatami mats room. This room is a room where the river is not flowing (perhaps westward), so I think that even if you are worried about such sounds when you are sleeping, you can sleep well. There is an elevator to the public bath. Because it can be said to be ”only for guests in Nishi Kyo Tei”, I felt that it was easy to use a large bath and an open-air bath. ”Apart from Nishi Kyo Tei” Merritt is ”room food”. The specific dinner start time can be consulted with Nakai, so I was able to prepare it from the front of 6 p.m. The dish was made to ”the two person seat plan to enjoy all 19 kinds in the share style”. The dishes were delicious, but there were six kinds of dishes that ignite solid fuel and warm them. This is hard to eat. It may be good if two people line up during the meal, but if not, I recommend other course dishes. I think that there is an improvement point of this hotel because I have to call Nakai and others when I lower additional orders and dishes such as sake. However, in other words, it is not a meal in a place like a banquet hall, so you can enjoy the peace and peace only by the group traveling together. The bowling and humanity dramas of the night were fun, but if you want to enjoy in groups such as women's travel and three generations of travel with children, ”remove Nishikyotei” is recommended. It is also necessary to make an offer from here to put a futon. The towels necessary for bathing can be rented for free at the entrance of the public bath, so you don't have to take them from the room, and it is good to borrow clean towels every time you want to use a bath several times.

The room is functional and the Japanese breakfast and dinner are excellent. The hot spring has multiple special pools, but the hot spring water is not hot enough. It would be better if there is a vending machine selling frozen milk outside the hot spring door.

WOW! This was the first Ryokan Onsen that I stayed in and I was blown away by the lodging, the amazing staff, and the food. I say lodging because my ryokan has as much square footage as my home—a balcony, an outdoor onsen, shower and changing area, two separate toilet rooms, an open configurable area with kitchen, dining area, living room area, and sleeping area. They provided a yukata and a cloth purse that I wore for meals in the restaurant, and pajamas for relaxing in the accommodations. Every corner of the room and the ryokan was thoughtfully decorated—flower arrangements, ceramics, pictures, and so on. Happy hour each evening was a relaxing affair in the low-key bar area. Our tuxedo-clad host was efficient and friendly. Guests have a choice of ”American” or Japanese breakfast. I tried each. ”American” breakfast is much different from what we'd have in the USA, but you won't get the tasty Umeboshi plum or Japanese pickles provided with the Japanese breakfast. I found that both choices were far too much for me. On two days I opted instead to get a pastry from the bake shop and eat in my room. The kaiseki was fabulous. I was with a group (10 total) so we dined in our own room each night. Each night had a different menu. If you want to get an idea of what the experience was like, see the photos I posted for each of the kaiseki courses we had on the first night. Thanks to Head Chef Junichi Takeda for the wonderful meals and to Otani-san for being such a gracious and wonderful host.

We stayed here for 2 nights in February, probably off season. I wanted to celebrate my husband, so I consulted with the staff about everything from changing reservations to making advance preparations. . The room with a garden and open-air bath was wonderful, and the hospitality of the staff and the food were all excellent, making my stay in a different world of bliss. Well, I think other people have already written enough about how nice the room is and how wonderful the experience is, so I'll just leave two points! 1. Even the maintenance and cleaning are beautiful. →I came across a coffee maker being maintained, but it was completely empty in a big wagon. . . Instead, you can carry out maintenance quietly by carrying an inconspicuous maintenance bag. I couldn't help but fall in love with it. 2. There is a small study in the special room. You don't want to work here! ? However, if you absolutely have to do it, you can quickly finish it in your small study. Thank you again for your wonderful stay. I couldn't finish visiting Yamaguchi, so I'll be back!

Style. Traditional hotel, a bit dated Setting. Japan countryside off the beaten path 2 hours from Fukuoka airport Explore. Motonosumi Inari Shrine. Akiyoshido cave. @ the hotel. Hotel first built 1881 on site of a hot spring discovered by a monk 600 years ago. Open air baths with high alkaline. Spa treatments. Hotel hosted a summit with Shinzo Abe and Putin in 2016. Rooms. Various room options, I chose a 900’ corner room surrounded by nature with a stunning view of the Otozure river on one side & the mountain on the other side. Room had tatami mats & futon beds. Bathroom came with a jacuzzi that you can just soak in while enjoying the views. Toilet room very dated with an ugly urinal in it. Food & drinks. Multiple dining options. I had kaiseki dinner which included wagyu, Yamaguchi seafood i.e. fugu blowfish, abalone etc at Zuiun, & breakfast at Unyu Prices. Good value at US$556 for room & meals to feed two, especially since back in Hong Kong, a kaiseki dinner will easily cost $350 per person Rating. 4/5

The hot springs were comfortable and the food was delicious. It was a pity that the open-air bath was too hot and I couldn't take it for a long time. I was able to spend a quiet time slowly and get rid of my daily fatigue. I would like to see you again.

This place was clean and neat and the meals were delicious. The staff was very kind and attentive. The bathroom was nice, the lobby was nice. The bed was a little stiff for American tastes but more comfortable than most here in Japan. This place had its own chic style that I appreciated. They went out of their way to accommodate my dietary needs.

I am satisfied with the bath, the food, and the staff. I use it after traveling to Nagato and watching Kabuki. The bath is soothing and the scenery overlooking Yuya Bay is soothing. I think it's good to be alive during the sunset time. I won't let you down on the food. However, in the past, there was a local dish boiled cousin, but it is a pity that it is not now. It bothers me every few months.
