Showcase Hotel KASANE

Thank you very much for taking care of us during our 3-day, 2-night stay. I recently read a magazine passage saying that travel is about venturing deep into a place and encountering an essence you can only meet in that moment—I truly agree. It felt restrictive yet somehow freeing; inconvenient, yet we hardly noticed. This Ryokan (deliberately not a Hotel) has a wonderful handmade feel and plenty of room to grow. Arifuku bianco was also delicious. It was a space where we could enjoy even more local sake, wine, and whisky. Of course, visiting the public baths had its own charm as well. Iwami Kagura was powerful and impressive. My rating is slightly strict.

The building’s design felt thoughtfully curated, and the indigo dyeing was wonderful.The Onsen water at Arifuku Onsen was also excellent, and I’d love to visit again.Just one small note: the curtain in the toilet area didn’t feel very relaxing.
