Honjin Hiranoya Kachoan Ryokan

This modern Japanese ryokan combines the main elements of a traditional Japanese inn - personalised service, hot-spring bathing facilities and multi-course dinner feasts - with the polished, up-market ambience of a luxury hotel.
Rooms are simply furnished, in keeping with this style of property, but the 'omotenashi' (service) is unparalleled. From the meticulous green tea welcoming ceremony, through to in-room dining, graceful kimono-clad staff are on hand to attend to every request with a smile and a bow.
