Onyado Shikishimakan (Kyoritsu Resort)

The friendly staff who greeted us when we arrived at the parking lot made us very happy. We were able to leave our luggage before check-in, borrowed a cane at the entrance, and headed to Konpira Shrine. The bath after climbing all 1,368 steps was amazing. My husband also said the sauna was excellent. The Room was spotlessly cleaned and had a basket for going to the bath with a bath towel and face towel inside, which was very convenient. We also really enjoyed the half-buffet breakfast and left feeling full and satisfied. It was truly great that visiting Konpira Shrine, having dinner, and everything else were all within walking distance from the Hotel.

We arrived two hours before check-in and contacted the Ryokan to ask if we could leave our car there while visiting Konpira Shrine. They kindly said it was fine and even offered to store our luggage, which was a huge help. Right after check-in, we headed straight to the private bath (laugh). It was so spacious that it felt almost too big for just two people. The water was slightly lukewarm, making it perfect for a long, relaxing soak. The meals were just the right amount for me, and my husband ordered all three options available and finished everything. The late-night ramen was also delicious. The large public bath was great too—we could really unwind, even lying back and relaxing. Breakfast was very satisfying as well; in addition to the set items, there were plenty of salads, yogurt, fruit, pickles, and more. Lately we’ve been looking specifically for Dormy Inn Group properties.
