Offering a yawning secret base, we urge you to come and enjoy a treasury of expansive great nature to your heart's content.

We arrived at the hotel & was greeted by the staff so warmly as if we were their long lost relatives. The receptionist spoke perfect English during check in & voluntarily upgraded our room. I suppose they were informed that we were there to celebrate my birthday. The place was clean, the service was excellent & matching that of a 5 star hotel. Upon settling down, we went straight to the rotenburo, which is the outdoor onsen, a hot spring bath, that overlooked the mountain & nature. As the rotenburo was situated on the mountain top above the Ryoken, we had to take a cable car which was connected within the hotel in order to reach it. The kaiseki meal for dinner was sumptuous & uniquely Japanese of course. Every dish was explained in detail with much effort. The diners were also seated spaciously in the common dining hall with lots of privacy between them. We were also entertained by a lady staff who sang a Japanese folk song that created that atmosphere which complemented the authentic Japanese meal. It was a relaxing & wonderful Ryoken for us. We were supposed to stay for 2 nights. Unfortunately, we had to abort the stay as my mom had passed on the same night. The staff was so helpful to arrange for us a taxi to send us to the Kochi airport at 0300 hrs to catch the first flight back to Singapore where we came from. What was surprising was that the hotel even refunded us the one night room rate which we had paid but were unable to continue with the stay. We will highly recommend visitors to stay there if they are visiting that area. It is only an hour train ride from Kochi train station & to alight at Oboke station. There’s a direct bus from the Oboke station or you can call a cab which cost about ¥300 which will take about 20 min to arrive. The cab’s companies telephone numbers are written at train the station desk for visitors’ information. Thank you to all staff at Hotel Kazurabashi in Iya Valley. You made our brief stay so enjoyable & memorable too.

Overall, because the person in charge is absent, only half-way correspondence can be done in any correspondence. The front desk of check-in is absent and calls by bell. I booked an annex, but I took over the elevator ２ times and arrived in the room. On the way, the corridor is abnormally moldy. Decent cleaning and maintenance are not possible. The room seemed to be clean at first glance, but the tile carpet on the floor of the room was moldy. There is no air cleaner. The annex is a poor content that the wifi is not connected. I went to the public bath, but it was a feeling that the guests were able to use the hot water facilities of the foreign guests, and it was not a public bath in the hotel. Cosmetics were closed in the room and in the public bath. There is no place to relax after bathing. You can imagine public bath. The automatic entrance door to the public bath is broken, but it seems that it is not willing to repair. Only the quality of the spring is great, so it is really a pity. Dinner is also a party dish like amateur dish. Ayu sashimi is only ２ cut. Only white rice was delicious in a way to cook with individual Kama. Breakfast is also poor content, which doesn't seem to be a hotel. There is no person in charge of the waiter here, and only the trainee who cannot even replenish even if the cup is lost is placed. Even when checking out, the front desk is absent. You have to call it by bell. About, there is no hospitality spirit, cleaning and maintenance. It is better to specialize in day bathing.

Stable dormy quality. The highlight of the breakfast is the seared bonito that can be enjoyed with two types of salt and ponzu sauce, but my personal recommendation is the pudding. Dormy's pudding is delicious, although it's not available everywhere, so be sure to give it a try. The location is about 15 minutes walk from Kochi Station, but it is close to the downtown area and there are no problems with restaurants. The famous Hirome Market is also just a short walk away.

We stayed for 1 night with 2 adults. We will describe 4 points on the stay and 2 points on the point that we were worried about. ■ Good point (1) The dinner was delicious We stayed in a quiet period. I tried to make a plan of less than 20,000 yen per person via OTA. There were a menu like cherry blossoms, amego, cherry blossoms, awao chicken, pig and Tokushima. I think the volume was quite good. The people at the next table were not eaten out. The only subtle thing was about tempura. The tempura was the impression that it was over time after fried. (2) There was a smoking room For smokers, smoking rooms were essential. It is a hotel that loves smokers also value. You can stay with peace of mind. There is also a smoking room on the floor where the front desk is located.(3) There was a loan of cables The charging cable for the smartphone was broken during the trip. When I consulted at the front desk, I asked for a charging cable. I was asking for an extension code rental in advance, but I was prepared in the room properly without forgetting. I was impressed that the work was a neat hotel. (4) The GoTo in Miyoshi City The GoTo campaign was only in Miyoshi city. I couldn't pay for the accommodation fee, but I was able to get a coupon ticket of 4000 yen (4 1000 yen tickets) for two people at check-in. The sightseeing such as the big walk was finished, so the next morning, I was charged for gasoline at the gas station in the city. The gasoline was about 3500 yen. I think the time when the GoTo campaign in Miyoshi city is being carried out is a chance to stay. It is the same calculation as the 2000 yen draw per person. There is no change. ■ I was worried (1) There was a distance to the bath and dinner venue The room has a self-cruel guide display, but there is a distance from the room to the bath and dinner venue. Our rooms were on the 5th floor of the building with the front desk. Once you get off the elevator to the floor where the front desk is, you need to move the floor and move it by the elevator of the next building. If you are inconvenient in your foot and waist, I think it would be better to choose a room in the building with a bath and dinner venue in advance. The breakfast venue is in front of the front desk. It is a Viking form. (2) The foot wipe mat in the bath was painful The entrance to the bath has a green foot wipe mat. It was a hard lawn material, so it was painful in barefoot. The dryer, cotton swab, tissues were properly equipped with the washbasin. The bath was open-air bath and sauna. The sauna is hot enough to burn the butt if you don't put a mat. Overall, it was a very satisfying hotel. Especially dinner is a good impression. The rooms were also cleaned properly and there was a feeling of cleanliness. The toilet is also with a washlet. It is one of the hotels that I want to repeat.

The Iya Onsen is one of those unique travel destinations that leaves you with a truly memorable experience. From the fabulous drive up the isolated narrow mountain road, to the view from the top into the valley below, the relaxation of the open-air baths at the river’s edge (or on your private terrace), the locally sourced and themed kaiseki meals, and the helpfulness and professionalism of the staff, the property offers an experience that clearly stands out among typical ryokan offerings, even more upscale ones. The prime feature of the Iya Onsen property, is of course, the incredible location and view from the top down into valley, which truly makes you stop to appreciate the natural beauty around you. The dedicated cable car taking guests to the large open air baths at the river’s edge below adds another unique element, with the overall experience augmented by the general high quality of the ryokan itself; while the buildings and rooms are beginning to show a bit of their age, the overall facilities and services are still very much reflective of a luxury stay. This is a wonderful luxury ryokan at an incredible location, a rare combination that is not always easy to find.

Although I was the only client on this day, the aunt was still very enthusiastic. She slept in a large tatami room alone. The aunt also delivered small snacks and tea. The shops here closed early, maybe because there were too few tourists. , I took a break and went out to search for food. As a result, there was no restaurant. Friends who went there would still make an appointment for dinner and breakfast. Otherwise, they would really not be able to buy anything. They would only open after 9 o’clock in the morning, but I like this quiet little In the countryside, there is a camping platform nearby. It takes about half an hour to walk by. It is more suitable for self-driving. I only transited here to go to Jianshan the next day.

Breakfast is very delicious and volume is good. The room felt a bit old and there was no outlet next to the bed, so I felt a bit inconvenient, but the cleaning is well done. It is convenient because the Yosakoi market is within walking distance and the tram is nearby. The parking lot is a little far away, so it is wet without an umbrella in rainy weather. It was good to bring coffee next to the front desk back to the room. The bath used a 720 yen super hot spring in a little far away, so I don't know, but it was a very warm hot spring. I think it is a relatively good hotel in Cospa.

There is also a parking lot, which is very convenient because it is in front of the Tosaden stop. Even if the three-dimensional car is full, there is a coin parking next door. I could see ”Harimaya Bridge” from the room. The right-angle intersection of ”Tosaden” is also in front of you. 10 minutes walk to Hirome Market and Kochi Castle. I will go through the arcade. It is also a 10-minute walk to Kochi Station, but it feels far away. Amenities will be available on the １ floor, but be careful because they didn't tell me. It's not conspicuous, but the back door is convenient.
