Our host Sawada San was so warm and welcoming. He made us feel right at home. Wonderful room overlooking the river. Super nice private onsen. We wanted to stay another night. The cute town of UnazukiOnsen is small and only a few restaurants but was very enjoyable. Kurobe Gorge Railway is a must see!

Das Essen und die Freundlichkeit des Personals waren top.

Für alles Extra musste man Zusatzkosten bezahlen, z.B. für die Tischtennis-Schläger und die Getränke zum dinner, obwohl diese üblicherweise miteingeschlossen sind in einem Ryokan.

The ample parking lots available. The caring team there, like the manager Tamada San answered all our queries in English, the meals staff translated Japanese cuisine menu to English for us after the first night when we said we couldn’t understand Japanese menu. The property is also within walking distance to walking trails which were also enjoyable.

Perhaps the curtains in the room can be double layers as the sun rises early like around 5 and shines into the room.

Our stay couldn't have been better. The staff were amazing from the moment they messaged us to arrange pick-up before our arrival. They also speak some English. The traditional Japanese room was large, immaculate and even had a massage chair! Of course, as it is a ryokan, we got to wear yukata and sleep on comfy futon. I travelled with a relative who was new to Japanese baths and didn't want to bathe naked with strangers, but it wasn't a problem because there were several private baths: three small ones that where you can just walk in and lock the door behind you, and a big beautiful outdoor one that you can book for a small fee (very worth it). The multi-course dinner was delicious, beautiful to look at and an experience in itself. We also enjoyed having a glass of sake in the lounge, which has a beautiful view of the mountains and river and free soft drinks + coffee. This is a great place to experience hot springs and a traditional Japanese inn en route to Kanazawa.
