Ryokan Ryokan Yamaichi

The owners were friendly and nice. I love how they took care of their guest.

We really enjoyed staying at this traditional Japanese inn. Incredibly friendly owners were very helpful (even with our language differences). Dinner & breakfast were beyond expectations. And they gave us a ride to the ferry terminal.

Food was amazing both dinner and breakfast. Dinner time we got a whole crab and steamed hokke which were quite delicious.

Breakfast and dinner are very good, full of seafood dishes.

An older super friendly couple is running the hotel. Their english is poor, but enough to feel accepted. The food is amazing for both breakfast and dinner. A wealth on seafood to taste with crab and specially prepared fish. The hotel is located a 15 min walk from the JR station, but is easy to find. The room was simple but cosy with a very good bed. Wifi in the room was very good.

The dinner which was included was sumptuous with delicacies like crabs, scallop and urchins.The host do really ensured that the guests are well taken care of.

朝食がとにかく美味しかった! また、奥さんの対応、接客が大変気持ち良かったです! 外見、フロント設備は、ん? と思ったのですが、客室、お風呂、トイレはリフォームされており綺麗でした! 稚内出張の際はまたお邪魔致します!

到着時間が遅くなるも快く迎えて頂いたし、前に追加手配した夕食がなくひと時、対応を話しましたが、要望に応じて頂いた。少しばかり待ったがその間、ゆっくり入浴出来ました。大将、女将の好意で即席夕食となりましたが、おいしい物を満腹させて頂きました。私達夫婦は、結婚55年記念旅行でした。たのしいたびのおもいでです。81歳82歳の同学年女房です。お礼の手紙を出すつもりでしたが、山一さんのフォロー企画に便乗することにします。ありがとうございました。

夜ご飯の料理がとても豪華で、食べきれないくらいご馳走になりました(ホタテ、毛ガニ、ウニ、タコしゃぶ、お刺身、etc...)。 スタッフの方々の対応もとても心地よかったです。

เจ้าของพูดภาษาอังกฤษไม่ได้ แต่ให้ความช่วยเหลือดีมาก โรงแรมสะอาด

-
- What's a ryokan?
- A ryokan is a traditional Japanese inn. They usually feature bathhouses, multicourse dinners, communal spaces where guests can relax, and rooms with woven-straw flooring and futon mats. Like hotels, a range of ryokans (from budget to luxury) is available. What originated centuries ago as a free rest house for long-distance travelers has evolved into a popular destination for relaxation surrounded by therapeutic mineral springs.
-
- What are the big differences between a ryokan and a hotel?
- Unlike a hotel, where the guest room is just a place to turn in for the night, a ryokan is more than just a place to sleep. In Japan, many travelers journey long distances to relax in a hot spring bath and feast on a traditional multicourse dinner – staying in a ryokan is an experience in and of itself. These ryokans typically have Japanese-style rooms with woven-straw floors and futon beds (no Western beds and carpeting). You should also remove your shoes at the entrance of the room, or before you enter it. Modern ryokans might serve buffet-style meals in a dining area, while more traditional ryokans tend to serve in-room dinners. Some ryokan rooms have a private bathroom, and others might just have a shared bathroom.
-
- What's a kaiseki meal?
- Kaiseki is the culinary highlight at a ryokan, embodying beautifully presented dishes that delight both the palate and the eyes. Every one of the 10 to 15 dishes that make up the multicourse Japanese dinner is prepared in a way that highlights the unique textures, colors, and flavors of featured seasonal ingredients and local specialties. Most commonly served at special restaurants and ryokans, a traditional kaiseki dinner usually consists of bite-size appetizers, fresh sashimi (raw fish, like sushi), soup, grilled fish or meat, a hot-pot dish, rice with miso soup, and a small dessert.
-
- What's a yukata?
- A yukata is a casual summer kimono or robe, typically made of light cotton. Many ryokans provide guests with yukata robes during their stay. In some areas, it's common to see guests strolling through the neighborhood in their yukatas. The loose-fitting garment is perfect for sleeping and relaxing in.
-
- How should I wear a yukata?
- First, put your arms through the sleeves like you would with a robe. Take the right side of the yukata and wrap it across your body. Then, take the left side and wrap it over the right, making sure that the robe is level at your ankles. Pinning the yukata closed on the right side, wrap the sash around your waist a couple of times and then tie a bow. Generally, the bow is tied around the waist for women, and the hips for men.
-
- What's a Japanese hot spring (onsen)?
- Onsen (literally "hot spring") is a term often used to refer to both the mineral-rich hot springs and the bathing facilities that house them. Whether the bath is public or private, gender-segregated or mixed, indoor or outdoor, soaking and unwinding in the soothing geothermal waters at an onsen is a millennia-old custom deeply embedded in Japanese culture.
-
- What's standard bathing etiquette?
- At a bathhouse—onsen or not—guests are expected to remove all clothing in their respective changing rooms before entering the bathing area. As a common courtesy, once inside the bathing area, guests should wash and rinse their bodies thoroughly before quietly stepping into the hot water. Whether you relax in solitude or converse softly with others is up to you, but guests should always be mindful of others. Wash towels are often used to cover one’s private areas while walking around. However, note that you should not put towels in the water.
-
- Why are tattoos not allowed?
- While tattoos have become more popular among Japan's youth, many Japanese people still associate them with outlaws and organized crime. Nowadays, not all businesses ban customers with tattoos, but you might still be refused admission to bathhouses and swimming pools. Small tattoos can be covered up using waterproof bandaids, but keep in mind that each property has the final say on what’s acceptable.
