Hidatei Hanaougi

A traditional ryokan that gave us a chance to relax on our fast paced trip through Japan. Impeccable service and relaxing surroundings. Beautiful, soothing onsen with a traditional feel. Delicious meals. They even accommodated my husband as we don't eat seafood.

Everything was just great. The service, food are excellent! Highly recommended!

We stayed for two nights at hidatai. The outdoor Onsen is beautiful, just as it was pictured and described. The room was equiped with all the modern trimmings. Staff at the front desk spoke English fluently and the food was spectacular. Would highly recommend this place!

Its a beautiful clean ryokan hotel. The staff and ambience are excellent! Really great service. Its on the edge of town, not near anything. The room had its own outdoor onsen/hot spring soaking tub and that was the best thing about the place. You sleep on the floor. Yes they put out matts, not what a futon is in the USA, just a cushion actually, on the tatami covered floors. As is the case with these traditional ryokans, dinner and breakfast are included in the stay. Dinner consisted or many minute sized portions of all sorts of bottom feeding sea creatures and three 1/2 inch slices of hida beef. I couldnt eat most of it and even if I did it would never be enough to consider dinner. Breakfast was worse and SMALLER. We paid $470 for the night. Yes $470 wasted! I get the idea of tradition, and am well traveled, but this was a bad idea. Stay somewhere else unless the private onsen is your goal.

You become Japanese the moment you step foot in the Ryokan ! As soon as you arrive you take off your shoes , put on your kimono and let yourself immerse in the experience
