Kappo Ryokan Kannawa Bettei

We like that it is tucked away from all the noise, the food was exquisite, it was our first ever ryokan experience and we will definitely be coming back because of how the food was meticulously curated and it was one of the best dining experiences I have had in a long time.

The entrance was not easily accessible.

The place was very beautiful and tranquil, the staff were so friendly and the food was incredible!

It’s expensive but for what you pay for you get back in excellent customer service. Staff greet you at the gate on your way into check in and until you close the taxi door, will always be available to assist you. It’s a quiet place with only a few rooms which means very few guests, practically the whole place can be yours if booked during the weekdays or low-season. Rooms are massive, more than enough to fit 5 or 6 people in a single room (the more people the cheaper it gets since they change by room). Dinner and breakfast were amazing as well, full 10 course dinner and a 7 course breakfast. Picky eaters might not appreciate the Japanese style menu. There is a family bath which everyone in the hotel shares which ones one family at a time. Good location close to Jikoku Meguri within walkable distance.

The onsen was a little less grand compared to what i imagined. You could potentially go to the hotel by bus, but with a lot of luggage it would be quite tiring since it’s it’s up hill.
