Takamiya Ryokan Yamakawa

老舗の施設で古きよき日本の旅館という感じでした。 スタッフの方も接客良くて高級旅館に来たなという感じでした。 部屋もお風呂も雪景色も良かったです ご飯もすごく美味しかった また来たいです。

I feel compelled to write a review of this property because some previous reviews had been very bad. We were a bit apprehensive when we got to the ryokan. It was raining, we were early (1 o'clock) and some reviews said staff were not friendly. If we couldn't check in, we would have to find some other shelter. As it turned out, the friendly gentleman at the reception allowed us to check in. The next 2 days were most enjoyable. The food was excellent and they provided a shuttle service for us to visit Uesugi shrine on day 2, one of the best sights on that trip. The room was spacious and clean. The best thing was the onsen with excellent water quality. We learned not to trust every review, good or bad. We picked this place precisely because some reviewers seem bend on destroying its reputation. There was a small exhibition on the history of this place near the reception. It was well worth the time I spent there.

温泉の泉質がとても良かった。スタッフさんも感じよく、快適に過ごせました。
