Yamashiro Onsen Yoshidaya Sannoukaku

As we did last year, the three of us—my mother, who turns 90 this year, my husband, and I—stayed again this year. The building is old, but the greetings, kind words, and thoughtful care from everyone—the Shuttle Service staff, those who welcomed us at the entrance, those who guided us to our Room, and the dining staff—were all wonderful. We were able to relax and enjoy a very pleasant stay. The cuisine was outstanding. The chef’s creativity in each dish—the combinations of ingredients and beautiful presentation—was impressive, and everything was delicious. Even my mother, who usually eats only small portions, was able to finish every dish without leaving anything. The breakfast buffet was also excellent; the sweet shrimp sashimi, rice, local vegetables—everything was delicious, and it felt like we got a full year’s worth of nourishment. For bathing, we used both the open-air bath in our Room and the large public bath. The Onsen water quality was great and left our skin smooth. We also booked a facial massage for my mother. She had been deeply impressed last time by how wonderful it felt—the best she had ever experienced—so we requested the same therapist again and were lucky enough to have them available. My mother was truly moved. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

A long-overdue overnight stay with three female classmates. We chose this Accommodation because we wanted somewhere calm rather than a noisy place. Since it’s close by, we’d already heard the food had a great reputation.When we arrived, the staff’s bright smiles made us think it might be even better than expected. At dinner—the meal we’d been looking forward to—we knew we’d made the right choice! The large public bath was spacious and very clean.Breakfast was buffet-style, but since it was in a private room, we could relax and eat as much as we wanted. Everything tasted great.If I had one suggestion, I wish the shop had a bit more to offer.The dressing at breakfast was so delicious that I wanted to buy some as a souvenir, but I couldn’t find it in the shop—too bad!Still, overall this is a calm, adult-oriented Accommodation: amazing food, amazing baths, and amazing staff.Thank you very much.
