location is perfectly good and few mins to Kinosaki station, but the room without window and many stairs inside the hotel, not suit for large suitcase customer. need to book or reserve the bath room even you just want to take shower, there is no shower/bath in the room, also with non-reserve public bath, suggest to reserve or unable to use if occupied by someone. The hotel with food smell maybe this is traditional Japanese hotel but also acceptable. However, the carpet front of toilet with smell in our room and we hope hotel could improve it.

Fabulous experience
We enjoyed our visit to this onsen town - the hotel was a short walk from the train - we were warmly welcomed and experienced Japanese hospitality at its finest. We had a toddler with us and the staff went out of their way to accomodate him. The traditional rooms were amazing and all the little touches, with complimentary kimono to wear around onsens, were an added bonus. The traditional Japanese fish banquet for dinner was sensational as was the Japanese breakfast. If you want a complete Japanese experience in beautiful surroundings with very caring and helpful staff then you must stay here.

Very nice service. The owners and the staff are so helpful and thoughtful. Even offer us an umbrella in the rain. They tell us to leave the umbrella in the railway station as we are leaving. We are flattered. The owner and some staff can speak English. Even those that do not will try their best to serve and help you. Strongly recommend.

Great service!
Wonderful service, great food that was served to us directly in the room. Traditional Japanese style service. We really enjoyed the pass to all of the hot springs as well. The people were very friendly and it was the best experience! Glad we went with this ryokan out of all the choices in Kinosaki. Also enjoyed that they had access to hot springs within the hotel and could reserve to make it our own private time.

Let down by crazy wait staff
This is the budget version of ryokans. Everything is nice enough but not the spectacular and relaxing night you would expect at a ryokan.The food is ok, lots of different courses to sample but again, not a real wow. The owner is a lovely man but I'm sorry to say the stay was especially ruined for me by the server woman who kept bursting into the room without knocking, screaming "Excooze meeeee". She tried to hustle me to eat fast and was making up the futon beeside me while I was still eating. Not remotely relaxing. Kinosaki-onsen itseelf was a bit of a disappointment. I had expected the outdoor onsen, steam rising and fab views from the photos of Japan but here it's just plain old bath houses.

The perfect onsen experience!
We loved our two nights staying here it made the whole experience of being in Kinosaki. The food was great and the staff very friendly and helpful, they even helped me get into my traditional yukota. It was wonderful having the private onsen in the hotel and then being able to go out to the public onsens which were all very close by. I feel we had a very traditional onsen experience and I am so pleased we decided to stay here.

1 night at Mikuniya
Nice ryokan, nice people, good service, delicious meals, onsen experience inhouse, everything was so pleasant. 3 mins walk from the Kinosakionsen train station. The service was exceptionally excellent! Had snow crab sumptuous dinner spread and breakfast was also great with rice, onsen egg, tofu, miso soup etc.. Wore yukata to stroll on the streets with snow and going to public onsen was really a good experience!

Very happy first-time ryokan guest
Good job at adapting a Japanese tradition for (western) tourism. Staff are very obliging and everyone including onsen staff understand one's needs. As a single traveller, the room was reasonably spacious and comfortable. As long as one is prepared to abide by the procedures, everything flows smoothly. Dinner is served in the guest room from 18:00 - 18:30. The overall dinner process takes about an hour then shortly after, the staff prepare the sleeping arrangements ie futon on tatami floor. This is a good time for an evening stroll (it's a small town so need for a map) then take an evening bath in one of the 7 public onsen. Breakfast is served from 08:00-08:30 in the communal room with separate tables for each room. Whilst this is a communal dining room, the atmosphere is very quiet and private. After breakfast is another good time for a stroll and morning onsen. Staying for two nights, I took a day trip to appreciate the views of Amanohashidate. Make sure to pickup a complimentary postcard from reception for which postage is arranged for free. Complimentary yukata is provided so you do not need much clothing during your stay (other than underwear). Even complimentary tabi (split toe) socks are provided to keep one's feet cosy. For the ryokan and onsen novice such as myself, have an open mind to enjoy the overall experience. Leave any personal (emotional) baggage at home then you will have an enjoyable experience.

Very disappointing stay
We paid a premium price for this hotel / onsen, including paying significantly extra for the beef dinner upgrade. What a disappointment. - we got several small slivers of beef for the amount of extra money we paid. We could have gone out for a really nice dinner just for what we paid for this upgrade alone. - one of the room cleaners was a crazy old lady that kept yelling louder and louder at us when we couldn't understand what she was saying in Japanese. We are extremely polite travelers and familiar with Japanese customs, this was definitely not standard. - although there was hotel capacity when we arrived at 2pm (their check-in is 3pm), they wouldn't check us in There's a lot of better choices in the area. We have stayed all over Japan and set our expectations accordingly. This was a disappointment. We read the reviews beforehand and the positive reviews, especially about they food were not accurate at all!

A unique experience for a European
This is the full on Japanese experience. Shoes off as you enter the hotel . We had two large rooms on the first floor, plus a large hall and separate toilet/washbasin. No shower room. as the ryokan has its own hot spring. The onsen was big enough to hold about 4 people comfortably and separate showers were there so you could wash yourself before stepping into the onsen. There are also two other onsen . The rooms did not have a single place to store any items, so we had to work out of the suitcases. The evening meal of 12 courses was superb although we did feel a bit rushed.The 8th course was being served whilst we were still trying to finish off the third course. Just be aware that you will be sitting on tatami mats, and although a back rest is provided, these to a European are not particularly comfortable, especially with passing years. The futon beds were produced after dinner and we slept very soundly. Breakfast was from 8.00 till 8.30 and was taken in the banqueting room. Again very Japanese, and sat on tatami mats again but without back rests. As part of the package the hotel provides a free pass to the other onsen in the town. However you can only use it until check out time which is 10am, so if you want to sample the other onsen you may need to stay two nights or arrive early. A unique experience giving an good insight into top quality Japanese food, and a lifestyle which now belongs in the past. Certainly worth trying- once.

unpleasant journey
This is a Japanese traditional hotel, which the front may not speaks perfect English. But the simple English shows their services are great on check-in. The meal services are quite good , the young waiter speaks simple english to explain the meal what may take first what should be the next round The night my situation is a bit complicated after the meal , it's a kind of serious food allergy, my eye almost cannot open. But I don't blame the hotel at all , Because I am not sure what cause this serious allergy happened that I have not face before. At midnight the hotel front is no one may help. My unpleasant point is the next day morning before I check-out , there is a breakfast We did not go to breakfast because I am still suffer the allergy, but the waiter used the key enter my room and asked us " Do you want Breakfast?" That mood is unpleasant and unhappy

第一次入住溫泉旅館
實在十分十分好,可能第一次住溫泉旅館 地點超級近,出城崎車站沿大路走兩三分鐘就到 很傳統的日式溫泉旅館,服務非常好 可以挑選自己喜歡的浴衣,會替你將行李搬到房間(還會幫你抹好行李碌,因房間是tatami) 到房後先會沖茶你喝,因我比較晚到,所以已經可以吃晚飯,有專人會將晚飯逐一舖排到你面前(十分豐盛)但因傳統日式tatami,坐得比較不習慣 酒店亦有提供私人溫泉,入住時他們會詢問你是否需要預定(可使用一個小時時間),但個人覺得,外面的七個溫泉更值得浸,不過如果想比較私人,亦可選擇 吃過晚飯後便外出浸溫泉,酒店會有一張pass,可無限出入七個溫泉,溫泉開放時間不一,最晚可到11點 回酒店時,員工已經將餐桌轉換成床鋪 第二日早上,要早點起來到大廳吃早餐,需要跟其他住客同場吃早餐(我跟朋友太趕,我刷牙後臉也未洗就過去⋯⋯),一房一桌,亦是很豐盛 回房間時,已將床鋪轉回枱,本想再穿浴衣外出浸一次,但已收走(。 ́︿ ̀。) 因很傳統的關係,員工是可以自由出入房間,所以自己的東西收好,不要亂放(跟朋友因趕著吃早餐,睡衣東西都未來得及收拾,感覺是有點失禮,日本人應該收拾好才出房門吧) 房間內沒有洗澡的地方,預你出去浸溫泉 可能第一次住這種溫泉旅館,感覺很多事情都很新鮮,但服務真的很好
