Fukuzumiro

We spent well over our usual daily lodging budget, and it was absolutely worth it. The place is beautiful and peaceful, with lovely river-facing rooms and a wonderful Japanese feel. There are three private onsens and two shared ones, all open 24 hours, which made for a great way to start or end the day. The kaiseki dinner and breakfast were delicious, with so many different dishes that I could write pages about them. They brought the meals to our room, so everything felt private and cozy. The woman who looked after us, served the food, and prepared the room was so kind and patient in explaining each dish and how to enjoy it. I’m sorry I forgot her name. One of the best hotel experiences I’ve had. Thanks!

We loved the traditional, authentic feel of this hotel. Our room was right beside the river, and we could happily watch the water’s flowing rhythm. The room, atmosphere, and service were impeccable, and the staff treated my family with so much friendliness and care. We’ll definitely come back for another short holiday.

We stayed one night while visiting Lake Ashi and really enjoyed it. It felt traditional, and the food was authentic with plenty of variety. Our maid was especially delightful and even taught me a little Japanese. I’d gladly recommend a stay here.

I loved Fukuzumiro so much that I teared up when it was time to leave. The staff treated me with so much care, kindness, and attention, and I hope I can visit again. It’s a historic, traditional ryokan full of charm. The preserved tatami rooms and wooden structure, creaky floorboards and all, made it feel special. The kaiseki meals were thoughtfully cooked and beautifully served, and both the private and public onsen were peaceful and just the right temperature.
