Stayed for 3 nights, in Tsuribana room with private onsen. The room is a traditional tatami room, by the fast flowing river. The entrance to the room is a kitchenette with fridge, sink and tea-making facilities, then on the left is the tatami room with cupboards and a safe, and sliding onto a balcony looking straight onto the river, and on the right is the toilet and sink, then beyond is the onsen with the usual shower and the bath itself. You can sit in the bath and gaze out onto the trees with the sounds of the river and the birds - it sounds heavenly, and it is! The road is the other side of the river, but you don't notice it as it's hidden in the trees and a way above the Ryokan. Plus the sounds of the river drown out any traffic noise. Such a beautiful place to stay! This was our third week out of a four week tour of Japan, and a rest period. We stayed in plenty of ryokan, but none quite like this. The gardens, all with streams running through, weave through the buildings of the ryokan so that the whole thing feels absorbed in nature. Not much english was spoken, but just enough to go with our japanese, and the staff were so helpful and friendly, always there when needed. There was a little lounge and firepit by the reception where you could get tea or coffee at any time, and a little fridge where you coud buy the amazing local yogurt. There are lots of walks straight from the Ryokan, plus Mt. Aso and other activities within a short drive. Wed had a hire car but barely used it. So, onto the food: We had breakfast and dinner included. Without exception, every single thing we were served wa beautifully presented, delicious and an adventure!
