京湯之花翠泉度假酒店(Kyo Yunohana Resort Suisen)

Hands down the BEST ryokan experience ever. I stayed in a different one of the same scale in 2017 but Suisen blows it out of the water. From the service, food, environment and just attention to detail, everything is just top notch here. We got the room with private onsen and the room was huge! Had separate bathroom with shower/tub, a makeup room, living room and huge bedroom. The private onsen was nice on the balcony as well. We also booked the private onsen and that was 100% worth it. The outdoor views are simply stunning and they also give you little drinks in the fridge. Next is the food, the lounge offers unlimited ice cream, cookies and coffee. The fridge in our room was also loaded with different types of drinks, beers etc The dinner and breakfast was on another level. We were amazed by every course, each was a work of art and taste did not disappoint. Chef Kobayashi really knows his food and what works together. The staff was always friendly, and eager to help. The stay was only 1 night but we will be thinking back on it for a long time.

The Resort was an amazing, magical experience from start to finish. The greeting, room and clothing preparation was lovely and quick with enough time to get clothed and set up before dinner. Each course during dinner was prepared beautifully and despite some fear around what we might be served everything tasted just as mind blowing as it looked. The drink selection we were given paired perfectly with the food and the personal touch of the chef coming mid way and asking our opinion about the food was perfect. Our personal waitress had a great sense of humor and did very well at explaining how to properly eat what was presented to us. The grounds were beautiful and helped settle us into the restful state of mind we needed. The private bath you can reserve was well worth it and the perfect temperature to relax in. I would gladly return for future stays here again. Thank you so much for the amazing stay!

The stay at the Yunohana Resort Suisen is a great experience for any one who wishes to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The property was clean and tidy. The staff were all nice and helpful. We booked an open air bath room because we have tattoos but they do have a public osen for public use. We recommend this resort.
