Tenkawa – Lággjaldahótel

wesley Holland

I had expected the place to be a hotel and only realised after arriving that it was a traditional Japanese inn. The hosts were fantastic. Communication was with translation by iPhone but everything was clear. The inn is traditional so be prepared for the futon bed and the shared bathroom and washing facilities. But it's also small so we did not need to queue or wait. We were also provided with traditional dress which we wore to the craft beer bar close by. The hosts were wonderful. Everything from arranging a taxi to advice on what we needed for the hot spring bath in the village. The breakfast and dinner (it's an inn so both are included even though breakfast is mentioned only) were amazing. It was at a level I would expect in an expensive restaurant here but felt like you were in a home and not a hotel. The area is great for hiking and the village is just super nice. Great ice-cream place nearby also. All in all it was the best weekend break I have ever had and I have loads of memories - my advice is to go there and just immerse yourself without expectations. Again the hosts were amazing

The location was picturesque and overall incredibly pleasant to look around at. The property itself is very well maintained, truly delivers the classic ryokan experience, onsen are amazing and very enjoyable, the staff was wonderful and incredibly helpful. The food was something else - both the kaiseki dinner and the breakfast were delicious, filling and a great pleasure to partake in. Overall, would highly recommend, I had a blast staying at Kadojin.

First and foremost, the staff were absolutely wonderful, and went beyond what they needed to do to help us whenever we requested it. Things like lending us umbrellas after our check-out, taking our bags to the bus stop for later, bringing us drinks after hours when we asked, etc. The room itself was also the largest ryokan room I've ever stayed in, and felt very authentic and comfortable. They had tatami mats on the ground and I would've preferred to see the real tatami underneath, but I understand why they want to preserve the space. The ryokan felt slightly older and was not in tip-top shape, but this made me feel comfortable, like I was staying in a home away from home. It's located in a very ideal place, and is easy to access from everywhere in Tenkawa.

Great bar area with lots of drinks. Fantastic dinner and breakfast (well worth choosing after booking). Comfy simple room. Parking available and great walks near the guesthouse.

This is an exceptional place! Tugged away in the magical village of Dorogawa Onsen, their Ryokan welcomes its guests with care, very friendly staff and all the comfort one could hope for. The food was delicious and the Onsen perfect to wind down after a day of hiking and cherish the uniqueness if Japanese culture and geology. Compared to other Onsen Ryokans of the same level, the price was reasonable and even staying only one night (which I did) is enough to immerse into the experience. I highly recommend hiking up to Dorogawa on the way there along the Mitarai Valley Hiking Trail!

The owner is very friendly and made us felt very welcome. The place has been renovated and is clean and comfortable. The food is very good and what you can expect of a good ryokan. Onsen is very comforting. As the place is small, there is no need to fight for place in onsen.
