tranquil, tranquil, tranquil

I was mesmerized by the tranquil and very quiet location, surrounded by beautiful mountain views and nestled into a serene park. The room I stayed in had a lovely balcony view, perfect for enjoying my morning coffee. The hotel offered fantastic facilities including a fermentation factory and a rooftop terrace.

breakfast price

train schedule

the breakfast price is a real outrage, I mean who pays 3680 JPY for eggs? and the train schedule is so absurdly inconvenient, I could’ve walked to my destination quicker! I woudl ve been pleased with even a complimentary water bottle. is that too much to ask? I almost wrote a glowing review, but couldn't let these things slide.

The hotel's amenities were perfect for our family stay, especially the music room and the library. My child loved exploring the nearby park and seeing other families during cherry blossom season. The stylish decor made us feel right at home.

My kids wished for more food options nearby.

The hotel has spacious and comfortable rooms, with plenty of space to relax after a day of exploring. I was charmed by the quiet park next door, where I took leisurely strolls. The cafe offered delicious options, making each morning pleasant.

The pricing for dining options felt a bit steep.
