We had an amazing time during our stay. The service was impeccable and personalized. We had a kaiseki dinner and breakfast, both of which were a great way of learning more about Japanese culture. I definitely recommend spending a little more to get the dinner. They also provided us a celebratory dish since this was our honeymoon trip! We also got the room with a half open- air hot spring bath which was particularly relaxing to soak in after a busy day of walking. I will love to come back to stay again in the future!

Our experience at Ryotei Rangetsu was amazing. The service was thoughtful, efficient, and organized, they really thought of everything, allowing us to fully relax our minds. The annex room with a private onsen was wonderful and had a stunning view of the river and mountains. It was also spacious but comfortable, especially the futons that they lay out for sleep. We chose to include the dinner as well, which was delicious and very filling. Overall the stay was 5 stars for us.

We had a magical time at Ryotei Rangetsu. The breakfast was delightful and exquisitely prepared; they accommodated one of our party being vegan. The private outdoor bath attached to our room was wonderful. The staff spoiled us with the epitome of hospitality.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The good stuff: location was excellent, staff was very friendly: our luggage was brought to our room while we were out sightseeing, the dinner service was excellent. The little sitting area was picturesque and lovely to sit in. The bad stuff: we booked a room with an outdoor onsen as it overlooked the mountains and rivers. However, it is not very private as there are people walking the streets right in front of the onsen so you have to pull the shades and hide your view. The room next to us had an onsen as well right behind the. Bamboo wall and we could hear every word they said. The light was burnt out in the bathroom and we couldn’t see very well. Also in the pictures it looked like there was a small platform for the beds. There isn’t. Only one pillow was provided as well. The caution: this was our first stay (and probably last) in a ryokan. For $1000 a night we felt like we were camping. There is no place to rest during the day. After a long hot day of sightseeing, a shower and a rest before dinner is ideal. However your bed isn’t placed out until after dinner. For breakfast they have to come and put your bed away and the latest they will do that is at 8:30 am. We should have declined breakfast and slept in as there are great places in town to eat. There was no place to hang the hand held shower to stand up. You have to sit and shower. We should have been more discerning in our search for a ryokan. Hope this review helps someone else.
