“This ryokan struck me as a place steeped in history, dating back to the 17th century, and I imagine couples would find its romantic atmosphere particularly appealing. I was intrigued by the private dining rooms accessible via a vine suspension bridge and the rooms with open-air onsen, promising a unique and relaxing experience. Its blend of traditional Japanese aesthetics and wellness amenities makes it an ideal retreat in Nikko.”
