Exclusive to one group per day, enjoy the historic charm of traditional Japanese architecture and a meticulously crafted Aizu Samurai Kaiseki meal.

We stayed here to celebrate my wife’s birthday. First, we truly appreciated the kind pickup from Aizuwakamatsu Station. On top of that, you guided us to some well-known local sights and even stopped by the most famous one, Tsuruga Castle. It was our first time in Fukushima and we didn’t know much about the sightseeing spots, but thanks to all your helpful information, it made us want to come back and explore Fukushima more slowly next time. After arriving at the Accommodation, we were served matcha in a separate annex from the main residence, and you also showed us a beautiful Japanese garden. We were told it looks different with spring cherry blossoms and autumn foliage as well, so we’d love to visit again in another season. When we entered the main residence, you showed us classic antiques and a Room that used to be run as a traditional restaurant. It really built up our excitement about what our Room would be like. Since it was located underground, we assumed we might not be able to enjoy any outside views—but the moment we opened the door, there was an incredibly spacious and beautiful modern Japanese-style Room beyond anything we imagined. With unlimited drinks available and plenty of beverages stocked in the refrigerator, we were already thrilled. To our surprise, there was a river flowing just outside the window. The balcony was stylish and spotless, and there was even an elegant fireplace—everything was wonderful. The bath let us fully enjoy Higashiyama Onsen (Onsen), and it even came with a sauna; it was perfect. Dinner featured their most famous basashi (horse sashimi), along with Fukushima’s local dish kozuyu, tempura manju buns, sakura nabe (horse hot pot), celebratory dishes for special occasions, and more—an abundant meal with great variety. The basashi in particular was overwhelmingly delicious—better than anything I’ve ever had—and honestly made us want to come back just for that alone. Since it was my wife’s birthday trip, you also surprised us by preparing a birthday cake. Your hospitality went above and beyond—we were truly moved. Thank you very much. Breakfast was also excellent: Koshihikari rice cooked in a traditional hagama pot along with many side dishes such as salmon, rolled omelet (tamagoyaki), sea bream carpaccio (tai), eel (unagi), and more. There were so many options that everything tasted so good I ended up having multiple refills of rice. Checkout time felt far too soon—we’re sincerely grateful for such an Accommodation where you simply want to stay forever. You also drove us back to Aizuwakamatsu Station on departure day; it really was attentive service from start to finish. We will definitely return in another season. Thank you again for everything.

Situated on a vast estate, "Agricultural Auberge". Luxurious stay in a separate Room.

I’d been curious about Shirogane no Mori for a while, and this was my first stay. Surrounded by nature, there are eight Rooms in total (I think) lined up, and I was told by the staff that they all have the same layout. The interior, the private bath, the space with a reclining chair, table, and sofa, and the terrace were all more than spacious enough for relaxing alone. I spent a peaceful time listening to cows, birds, and dogs. The meals were satisfying in both taste and portion size, and they even provided rice balls as a late-night snack. The vegetables in particular had rich flavor and were delicious. I didn’t take many photos at night, but the scenery was exactly like what’s shown on the website—an atmosphere like buildings on a hill. I enjoyed cherry blossoms at night while smoking on the terrace and was satisfied from start to finish. Honestly, it felt like it offered more than its price. It was so fulfilling that I even asked the staff who guided me around whether this pricing wasn’t too low. I stay at Accommodations two or three times a month; usually if it’s expensive you get what you pay for—but with this Accommodation I can only say it’s exceptionally reasonable. I like Onsen but I’m an odd guy who doesn’t usually take many baths—yet I ended up using the private bath three times because the water felt silky-smooth. Since I prefer slightly cooler water, letting out a little cold water made it just right. It was an Accommodation with nothing to criticize. It’s also less than two hours from my home, so I’d like to come again just for dinner. Thank you very much for taking such good care of me.
