Hatago Hachi

We stayed here for the first time to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Every meal was delicious, and we were completely satisfied. In addition, we had a wonderful view of the stunning autumn leaves along Hachiman-bori from our Room, making it the best anniversary trip. Thank you so much to all the staff.

Following our previous stay in the Stone Room, we stayed this time in the Wood Room. Dinner felt a bit tense as we had the dining area to ourselves, but the head chef was very considerate and made it a comfortable, enjoyable experience. The seasonal ingredients and flavors were outstanding again. Breakfast was served upstairs in what felt like a hidden room, with a wonderful view from the best seat. The staff were warm and attentive—truly lovely. Thank you very much. From the Room, we enjoyed views of the moat’s boat bridge and cherry blossoms. Please note that people strolling along the stone-paved path by the moat may be able to see into the Room... The garden and roji pathway had a wonderfully rustic feel and were beautiful both from the Room and from the bath. If I had to mention any drawbacks: the toilet is located inside the bathroom without being separated, which makes it inconvenient to use, and water from the shower splashes into the powder room through/over/around?the curtain, leaving it soaked. This may be difficult to improve due to structural limitations, though.
