We had an amazing group trip staying in a spacious tatami room. Walking to the vine bridge was a highlight, and the nearby onsen was perfect for relaxing. The staff were super friendly, offering great service, and we loved the incredible views from the terrace.

beautiful view from the room, large bathroom with a window, morning view from the common terrace

The public onsen underwhelming!!! No common space apart from the rooftop!!! Limited availability of hand towels which led to using paper towels for drying!!! Pictures misleading regarding outdoor onsens!!!

Very nice Iya Soba
Attentive staff
Scenic views

No lift available
Steep access

Room was spacious with a flat-screen TV and electric kettle. No pets allowed.

delicious food with unique Iya soba and lovely yuzu sorbet. no lift available, tough stairs.

Good or Bad?

The morning view from the common terrace left me speechless, an incredible daily sunrise backdrop that enhanced my stay. The staff truly stood out, going above and beyond for guests like myself, even offering a ride to the bus stop.

No lift available, making it a bit challenging to access upper floors, especially with luggage in tow. Also, the steep access could be a concern for some guests.

The Standard Family Room was super spacious and comfy for our group. We had a large tatami area and even a separate living space, which made it easy to spread out. Two sinks were a nice touch for getting ready. Everything felt newly renovated and clean, which is always a bonus. Plus, it had this classic ryokan vibe that I loved. The only downside was getting to the upper floors since there’s no lift, which was a bit of a hassle with luggage, but overall, a really cozy experience!

a peaceful haven with friendly staff and stunning onsen views

Kazuraya provided a splendid escape with its tranquil onsen views and sincere hospitality from the staff. The meals, particularly the Iya soba, were a culinary highlight. Our room felt both cozy and authentically Japanese.

The outdoor onsen was a highlight, offering very nice views while soaking. Loved exploring nearby vine bridges and being charmed by the local fireflies.

Our stay was highlighted by the stunning views from the outdoor onsen and the engaging staff who arranged a surprise trip to see fireflies, making it truly memorable.

We really enjoyed our stay at this cozy ryokan, where the tatami room was spacious and comfortable for our family. The views were stunning, perfect for exploring the natural beauty of Miyoshi. Our teenagers loved the delicious local food, especially the Iya Soba!

My kids wished there were more family-friendly activities available.

Just a great fit for a passing visit in Miyoshi with outstanding value. Enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful views from the onsen. Bring comfortable shoes for walking the stairs.

The view of the lush green hills from the courtyard was breathtaking, with beach chairs set up for guests to relax and soak it all in. Enjoying delicious, skillfully prepared meals, especially the cold dishes and Iya Soba, felt like a treat. The spacious room provided comfort, and having a private automated onsen bath made the experience even more special. However, navigating the steep access and limited family-friendly activities can be challenging for some guests.
