Super unique experience off the beaten path to stay in a beautiful Ryokan. Would be great for a value with larger families, but be prepared to understand the busses or get a taxi, not a ton to do in the immediate area. On the other hand, staff was nice, limited but plenty of English with my terrible Japanese. Food was excellent and beautifully plated. Rooms were truly amazing, one of my favorite things on my travels.

Lillian

Disappointing: shared living room.
Living room is shared by several units, and there’s a need to climb steep stairs tot he second floor where the living room and bedroom are. Take note there is no onsen bath. At this price point, the food is not of amazing quality, quantity or variety. My previous night ryokan stay had onsen and MUCH better food, at USD100 less per night. Although the garden was nice and bathroom was in nice condition.

I look forward to staying here again in the future. The facility was well kept and the staff was friendly and helpful. It's a bit of a walk away from the main town but that makes it extra quiet and I felt safe.

Liked: Staff & service
The place is not a nice Ryokan, food is mediocre, service non existent, far from any restaurants or amenities, ok transportation, and good for early start by can to the Bamboo Forest but really not ideal for any other places or activities. In need of work, 0 amenities in terms if toiletries etc. could not match any of the other places we stayed. Disappointing

Beautiful ryokan recently remodeled. Wonderful staff. Delicious food. A bit off the beaten path but being out of the main city offers a very relaxing environment. If you have the Go app and don’t mind paying for taxis, then the location is not an issue. Very pleasant experience overall.

I usually don't review stays, but i had to for this Ryokan Yamazaki! The property is clean, quiet, beautiful and peaceful. Above all, the service we received was outstanding. The staff are very kind and patient. They were very understanding with foreigners as well, and explained everything we needed. I was very sick to my stomach when i arrived, due to motion sickness. My husband went to ask for directions to a pharmacy, and the staff drove him there personally and helped him pick out medicine! He didn't ask, and they insisted. Akagi was so wonderful and sweet. I firmly believe the rest, peace and kindness here turned around my health and helped me enjoy the rest of my trip. i can't wait to come back. Arigato gozaimasu!! 🙇‍♀️
