有氛圍、有情懷,還台灣同鄉的工作人員服務周到,餐點超乎預想的豐富。
鄰街道的房間,要注意一下隱私,不過可以看河景,所以瑕不掩瑜。

I loved that Kobayashiya was comfortably stylish , historical , a ryokan for 11 generations, newly restored with modcons, well designed and traditional at the same time. Another plus, its centrally located. The staff was very courteous and the food was superb. Great attention to detail. Beautiful library! And great music. The owners were there to chat with us and gave us tips. It made our stay in Kinosaki Onsen extra special!
They forgot to tell us that there is a Kinosaki Onsen bus for guests staying at the Ryokan so we had to lug our bags around town upon arrival from the train station . They didn’t respond when we asked if there is a hotel shuttle or pick up when we inquired. Another thing. There were harmless stink bugs on the 1st night but when I brought it to the owners attention. The problem was solved.

I can’t recommend this hotel enough! The staff is wonderful… they were so nice to talk to, they really helped us figure out where to go in the city, helped me figure out how to put on a yukata, just lovely people.
The food here was immaculate. Some of the best food I’ve had on my trip to Japan. I had to take photos of everything! And the restaurant space is so beautifully designed. It’s sophisticated yet relaxing. That could also be due the soothing jazz music playing in the background, the dim and sleek lighting, and the Zen garden within view.
And the rooms, my God! we rented a room that had a sunroom overlooking the canal and it’s definitely the room you should get. My husband and I spent a few hours there in the afternoons and mornings, playing cards and drinking tea and looking out at the trees and people.
Can’t recommend this hotel enough!

I could not thank the Kobayashiya team enough, especially Ms. Yang, for the hospitality and kindness during my stay, going above and far beyond expectation for solving any problems I had in Kinosaki and ensured I had a unforgettable smooth vacation here, becoming the highlight of my trip to Japan, even after staying in a few high rated ryokans in other regions.
I chose this residence initially as I was able to see from their Instagram that they had worked with an L.A. company working with young adults with Autism, Aspergers, Anxiety and ADHD. Not only was the English support amazing, I would also like to support them in finding creative outlets to do more as a hotel.
The photos does not show justice to how beautiful, unique and comfortable the environment is. Clean rooms without a speck of dust. Wonderful lighting for a homely feeling. An exquisite dining environment with garden views. My room also featured a wonderful view over the famed Kinosaki river, observing the lanterns light up as the evening dawns.
The “public baths” are actually a highlight of the residence. They are private onsen baths designed with simplistic brilliance, each with their own semi-open air gardens. You can lock the doors so you actually have the bath to yourself. I regret not spending more time in these baths. I understand how one might prefer not sharing the same bathing area with others, but if you are in Kinosaki anyways you’ll be sharing and soaking in the most amount of public baths in your life.
Yukata and getas are provided for you for the most authentic Kinosaki experience, as the elegant clangs of getas ring through the night by locals and foreigners alike.
Definitely worth more than a 2 star rating, the luxuries may not be present but the service and friendliness is second to none, and gave me an experience of a lifetime.
P.S. I suggest not only looking via Booking.
Nothing. Everything was done perfect.

The staff were extremely helpful. They did have a hostess/server who spoke English very well. The experience was great, and I loved the traditional lodging we had.
No private bathroom, but the facilities were very clean, and I got over the lack of a private bathroom pretty quickly.

I had an amazing time. They treated me very well. I felt bad my luggages were so heavy! They took care of me. Yan is excellent. Really showed me the ropes. Felt bad she had to show me twice to wear my yukata. She was patient with me. She explained everything and made my stay really great. I got the snow crab dinner and it was excellent. I was super happy with it. So much food!! The breakfast was very good! I enjoyed both so much. The owner even gave me a ride to the station. Location is great, right in the middle between all the baths. Not bad of a walk, but I had heavy luggages. So the ride was very helpful.
