Nanten-En

Very unique experience, totally worth it. Great hospitality, old traditional building, tasty complete kaiseki and breakfast included. Quiet enviroment around hotel, even bamboo forest. I'd stay for 2 nights instead of 1 to rest completely.

Excellent💕 享受不一樣的旅程！謝謝！ 我們第一次自駕遊去大坂5天， 路途不熟，令到感覺好遠，但經GPS導航，好快就到酒店！在路上已電郵通知酒店，到達酒店時，已晚上7:30，在天氣寒冷下，好喎心地見到酒店負責人（老闆？）已在停車場等待我哋，幫手搬行李🧳🙏🏼好感謝您們💞

료칸 여행은 처음이었는데 생각했던 것보다 더 만족 했습니다. 화장실이 객실 밖에 있었지만 전혀 불편함을 느끼지 못했고, 온천도 24시간 오픈되어있어서 원하는 시간에 언제든 온천욕을 할 수 있었습니다. 석식은 방에서 코스로 받습니다. 일본 가정식 느낌의 음식들을 가져다 주시는데 플레이팅은 물론이고 맛도 굉장히 담백해서 중간에 물리는 느낌 없이 식사 할 수 있었습니다. 객실 옷장 안에는 유카타가 준비되어 있었고, 유카타를 입고 온천욕과 정원 산책을 할 수 있었습니다. 조식은 룸서비스가 아닌 1층 식당에서 먹을 수 있습니다. 조식을 먹기로 정한 시간에 식당에 가면 안내받은 테이블에 차려져있는 음식을 먹었습니다. 석식과 마찬가지로 음식은 일본 가정식 이었습니다. 석식을 먹고 난 후 온천욕을 하는 사이에 객실에 이부자리를 깔아주시고, 아침에 조식을 먹으러 간 사이에 다시 이부자리를 치우고 테이블을 옮겨 주십니다. 서비스는 두 말 할 것 없이 너무 괜찮았고 위치도 역과 가까워 찾기 쉬웠습니다. 앞에 있는 정원도 잘 가꾸어져 있어 보기 예뻤습니다. 무엇보다 직원분들이 따스하게 맞아주어 편안하고 기분 좋게 묵을 수 있었습니다.🩷

Het is een oud gebouw, maar het is goed onderhouden en ik denk dat de netheid echt goed wordt onderhouden. Ik was zeer tevreden en zag beoordelingen dat er bugs waren, maar ik was blij dat ik ze niet had. Maar de geluidsisolatie is zeker zwak ^^;; Als je op de 1e verdieping verblijft, denk ik dat je rekening moet houden met het geluid op de 2e verdieping.Ik verbleef op de 1e verdieping.

This was our first trip to Japan, ever, so we wanted to experience authentic and traditional Japanese hospitality, and what an amazing surprise we got. We rented the suite, which is the annex. You basically get an entire traditional japanese house, with a private onsen, all for yourself. From the moment you arrive to the ryokan, you get the warmest welcome you can imagine. You are taken to your guest house and introduced to everything around a house. They provide you with Yukatas so you can feel comfortable. For dinner, they come and serve you like a 5 or 6 course meal (I can't remember exactly how much they were), fully authentic seasonal japanese food. Once you are done, they come pick up the food from your dining room, and set up the futons were you will be sleeping, really comfortable futons. By morning, they come and serve the breakfast and store the futons. Did I mentioned the amazing private onsen all for yourselves? What an amazing experience onsens are. Now I understand why it is so embedded in Japanese culture. The only thing I regret is not staying another night, since we had a very tight Japan schedule. But if you ever go to Japan, at least once stay in a traditional Ryokan to enjoy tradition. And I cannot emphasize how great a decision would it be to choose Nanten-en. And if you can afford the suite, go for it. It is something you need to experience once in a lifetime at least.

Authentic onsen. Most impressive two ladies in kimono serve the dinner in your room and explain the ceremony etc. Great!

I have been going to Onsen's and Ryokan's for years with my friends from Nagoya. We never had a bad experience until we went to Amami Onsen. The Onsen might be old and historic, but it could be nicely kept up with some effort. The hall way carpets were horribly stained. The welcoming person was very snippy when asked if we can have coffee in the morning. We were booked in a room big enough maybe for 2 people with 3 people. No toilett in the room, it had to be shared down the hall. The bath was a joke, very small and not very clean...The food was, since it was Bamboo season, bamboo, bamboo, bamboo... This would all be fine, if the price point would be third rate....I would not recommend staying there ever. So sad!!!

Gorgeous traditional building complete with tatami floors, an onsen, and well-maintained grounds. Staying there felt like we were transported back in time (but with the modern luxury of AC during the hot summer). Amazing experience.

Truly like stepping back in time! Our one night here was the highlight of our incredible trip. The staff is so immensely welcoming; our room was absolute perfection (we stayed in the annex with private onsen). And the food, oh my goodness, the best meal of our lives, and we’ve traveled extensively!
