Gorakan Reviews

This hotel has great location, being only about 100m from Gora station via the underpass. Their meals are fantastic kaiseki affairs lasting more than 1 hour. They also have both public and private onsen, the latter of which you have to book. The staff are very eager to serve but you will need Google Translate to get your message through. The ryokan  rooms are very basic with a toilet, small fridge but without kettle and no shower facilities ( have to shower at the onsen ).

I really enjoy the traditional ryokan with dinner & breakfast, for me this ryokan is served with hearth, thank you for having me there. Although my toilet have problems and which i don’t inform the staff, I Really enjoyed to stay this ryokan.

Breakfast and dinner were absolutely fantastic! The real standout, though, is the heart the owner puts into every detail. You can truly feel the care in every meal. A wonderful experience!

Love the place. The food was excellent and the service was even better. Can't say enough good things about it. Highly recommended for family.

nice onsen and staff

Facilities: Located right next to the subway station, very convenient; the room is twice the size of the advertised one, almost like a suite. Service: The hotel's customized breakfast and dinner are very plentiful and exquisite, featuring typical Japanese cuisine; you can even dine in local attire.

The hotel is only 3 minutes from the station, but requires going up and down stairs. Breakfast and dinner times are relatively fixed. There was no hot water in the public bath upon check-in; you had to queue to use the private bath. It was a fairly traditional Japanese accommodation experience. The food was delicious, but the rooms, except for the sleeping area, had no heating or hot water.

A magnificent hotel in a traditional style, very polite and attentive staff, incredibly delicious breakfasts and dinners! 10/10, I would love to come back!

High cost-performance ratio, Japanese-style room with one night's stay and two meals, private hot spring can be reserved.

A one-night stay with two meals exceeded expectations (delicious food and excellent service). Exceptional service. An unexpectedly authentic Japanese experience. A Guangdong foodie's assessment: ✓ I was a little reluctant to leave. →Note: There's no shared washing machine, and the bathroom in this room type is indeed quite small.

I had a quiet and restful day. The meals were delicious, too. However, finding the accommodation wasn't as easy as I expected since it was my first time there. Still, I think it will be a memorable experience. I didn't experience any inconvenience during my stay.

The room was very comfortable, the boss cleaned up very neatly, the kaiseki cuisine was very filling, the people in the restaurant were very kind, the hot spring was a sulfur spring, and the private bath was really comfortable.

We booked for breakfast and dinner. However, dinner was from 6:00 to 8:00, and we weren't allowed to eat after 7:30. We arrived at 7:25, and the owner said the old man was waiting for us at the door, so we took our luggage and went to dinner. Although the two-hour meal was rushed through in half an hour, I was very grateful for the service. Families booking dinner should keep an eye on the time. The hot springs were in one room for 40 minutes. Although small, they were still quite nice.
