Lovely stay
This traditional merchant house converted hotel is lovely. We own the entire building with two floors. One tiny living room on the ground floor, a bath house, a separate toilet near the entrance, along with a spacious bathroom with the second living room on the second floor. It’s airy and full of scent of wood. However, the bedroom is facing the road without sound proof windows, it was very noisy throughout the night.

A time machine
What an incredible place: it's where restoration meets renovation! We were upgraded to 404, which was a HUGE old warehouse that contains modern necessities. The smell of the wood, especially in the bath, is very pleasant. This place has no TV and no clock -- 100% unplugged. In addition, the service was excellent.

Amazing experience in Sawara
The property is really unlike any other place i have stayed - a beautiful set of three 100-150 year old buildings, which have been converted into luxury accomodation. You really feel like you are just staying in a traditional house in the village... except maybe the decor is more modern and contemporary. The rooms are very large (think of a one bedroom house) and our room had a beautiful garden and seating area for morning coffee. The bathroom is also a real treat - a lovely cedar bath to soak in, as well as really nice amenities to use. Make sure you have breakfast here also, as the restaurant food is well above the ordinary breakfast served in Japan... lovely presentation, and delicious also. The staff, especially Satoru, are really helpful and certainly go the extra distance to ensure everything you want is provided. He went well beyond what I consider the requirements for a front desk person, helping us to book a rental car, and even confirming our lodgings at the next place we stayed - a really considerate guy, who understands what a difference great service can make for a traveller. An amazing experience, and i can't wait to go back again sometime.

街に住むような体験ができました。
友人と302の部屋に泊まりました。 古い酒蔵を改修した部屋でしたが、天井がひろく、インテリアもこだわりが感じられ、ゆっくりとした時間を楽しむことができました。 3人で泊まり、一人はエクストラベットだったのですが、畳があったので布団で寝る選択肢もあるとより良かったかなと思います。 檜風呂、フロントでの丁寧な対応、街に溶け込むように存在する建物、静かな夜、古い街並み、美味しい食事、落ち着いた朝食。 どの場面の思い出も心に残る、素敵な旅になりました。 友人との賑やかな旅行にも、両親との親孝行にも、恋人とのデートにも、家族の思い出にも、一人でのんびりするのにも、どんなシーンにもおすすめです。

昔を感じる
seigaku棟301号室に宿泊しました。昔の質屋の蔵を改装した部屋で、趣のある内装に、綺麗なベッドと照明でとてもお洒落でした。お風呂は桧風呂でとてもゆったりできましたし、アメニティのシャンプーなどの香りが良かったです。全体的にとても満足ですが、玄関の鍵の明け閉めしにくかったのと、玄関の扉が防犯上心許ない感じで、当日は強風だったこともあって、夜気になってなかなか寝付けなかったです。入口に外門があるので閉められれば安心感は大分違ったと思います。

近隣住民の迷惑にならないように静かに過ごしました。一般宅と近いため子連れは騒がないよう注意が必要です。障子も穴を開けないようハラハラしながら過ごしました。やんちゃ盛りの子は気をつけてください。サービス、食事、宿は最高でした!また行きたいです!

リノベーションされた古民家、寒い冬ということで、覚悟はしておりましたが、年齢的な事、今の便利で贅沢な暮らしに慣らされてしまっていた自分に改めて気づかされました。古民家を楽しむには季節を選ぶべきだったねと友人と反省。 でもスタッフの方達の行き届いたサービスや気遣いは心を温かくしてして頂きました。有り難うございました。機会が有りましたらまたお世話になりたいと思います。
