Yuyado Nishikiya

Three of us stayed one night in the ryokan. We received a very friendly welcome. The parking lot is on the opposite side of the house. Our room was above the onsen. There were two onsen. These were divided between men and women during the day. In the morning and evening you could use them privately. One onsen was made of wood, the other of stone. The onsen also had the toilets for the rooms. The room was large. There was tea in the room. The beds were laid out during dinner. The futons were very comfortable and there was a hot water bottle. The air conditioning had to be on because the room cooled down quickly. In the evening you could hear the onsen's ventilation system, which was turned off at night. The food was excellent! The owner explained the dishes in English. Dinner and breakfast were delicious.

Perfect experience. The host is hospitable and polite. The interior of the B&B is full of Japanese cultural heritage, with exquisite wood and local decorations. The standard of dinner and breakfast is comparable to that of a Michelin restaurant. The presentation, taste, and variety are all at the highest level. Fukushima beef and horse meat are fresh and delicious. There are two hot springs in the hotel, namely wood and stone, for you to choose from. All bath products are of the Aesop brand. Desserts and green tea are served in the room, and the Wi-Fi signal is strong. I will definitely come back.

It was the peak season during the Obon holiday, so it was quiet, and I didn't have any particular expectations when I visited, but I was surprised. The food was excellent, and the taste and presentation were very tasteful and exquisite. The bath was a little hot, but the water was great. The food and water were top-notch. The rooms were of the standard of a private lodging, but it was a wonderful inn that I would like to visit again.
