Accommodations in Kami-ichi

Traditional house is very interesting. Japanese style beds were quite comfortable. Kitchen was extremely well appointed. Bathrooms and showers easily accessible and had necessary toiletries. Staff was really kind. One staff even drove in the car with me to show me where to find their parking spaces. The host was super in letting us change dates on a non-cancelable reservation. Thank you!

Excellent location and plenty of space. Easy to find and atmospheric neighborhood. Host was responsive and helpful. Scenery in the area is beautiful.

Comfortable house that had more room than we needed. Host was gracious and generous with welcome gifts. Communication was good. Local maps and guides were available.

Had the whole house. Very helpful host. Loved it!

Beautiful setting at an authentic Buddhist temple, felt very privileged to have been there and taken part in the morning prayers

Super clean, very comfortable, exceptional design. The sauna and bath were amazing.

We loved having the whole place to ourselves, including a kitchen. The views in autumn were breathtaking. And we really enjoyed the sauna as well.

We'd just hiked one mountain and had a challenging 12 hour trail ahead of us the next morning. The owner was very accommodating and attentive to our needs, offering a bright, clean and spacious common kitchen that exceeded our needs to prepare dinner, breakfast and a packed lunch.

Great location for visiting Yoshino, easy parking, and very friendly staff who helped us plan an early morning visit to the nearby national park. They also went out of their way to give us spoons we were missing. Good common areas, dining room, and great value for money. (There was also a charming cat that wandered into the dining room - the staff apologised but it was a nice surprise.)

The location was great. I was carrying a large suitcase from the train station, and there was some uphill terrain getting to the ryokan, but it wasn’t super far, and once was there I was able to store my suitcase in the shed using the padlock code that they shared with me in the pre check in email. That allowed me to walk around and explore for a few hours while I waited for the 4pm check in time. I loved the quiet and peaceful property which was a perfect place to rest during my travels. The bath was also perfect. It’s a shared bath but there were only a few other guests, and I got to use it first. The woman running the property asked me to take only about 15 minutes in the bath, which I probably went a few minutes over because it was so wonderful. Later she brought me a little dessert and was very sweet. I slept perfectly. I loved this experience.

Wonderful stay in Yoshino, easy to reach by train, tasty traditional dinner and breakfast, staff is very kind and supportive!
