There are not enough words to describe what this family did for me and my friends. I would give them 100 stars if I could. Highly recommended! Very sweet, kind, warm owners. The rooms were perfect! Thank you for taking such good care of us
The Yamada family helped us out in crisis and made sure we had the best weekend. The rooms were clean and modern. We checked in late and they helped us reserve a great sushi restaurant for dinner - they even drove us so we would make in time. Loved that they queued up Harry Styles - music for a sushi restaurant to listen to in the car.
The kindness and hospitality were unmatched throughout my time in Japan. The staff was always friendly and ready to help at a moments notice. The room was clean and spacious and the private onsen was a very nice addition. My stay here was the highlight of my trip. I cannot recommend them enough!
My friend and I agree that this was truly one of the best ryokan experiences we've ever had. Despite our limited Japanese, the staff communicated with us effortlessly in English and went above and beyond by recommending fantastic local food spots and giving us clear directions.
The host was incredibly generous, even offering to pick us up from the station something we really appreciated. Our room was large, spotless, and very comfortable, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring.
The ryokan is perfectly located within walking distance of several wonderful onsen and the ropeway, which made our stay even more convenient and enjoyable
If we ever return to Kinosaki Onsen, there's no doubt, Tsuchiya Ryokan will be our first choice
Spent the most amazing day at kinosaki! Tscuhiya ryokan is an absolute delight! It’s a family run business! They are warm, caring and make you feel like you’re a part of their family!! I got a free upgrade to a beautiful room!
The hotel has 7 onsens that one can use all within 10 kms of the hotel! This was my first onsen experience and what an experience it was!!
Beautiful place, lovely people and amazing food!! This definitely holds a special place in my heart!!
The breakfast served the next day was mouth watering!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here at Tsuchiya, which is a family run ryokan nestled in Kinosaki Onsen town. We spent just one night here, which was sufficient to get the most out of our time.The owners were welcoming and friendly, providing an authentic glimpse into the Japanese onsen town experience.
After check in, you are introduced to your bedroom and served tea. The hotel provides the yukata and geta sandals, allowing you to experience walking down the streets and wandering in and out of different onsens in the town. My pro tip is to also bring your own flip flops or shoes along as you may not be used to walking/balancing in the geta.
The owners had great English and I appreciate that they took the time to explain the culture and customs (such as how to walk in geta and how to put on your yukata). They also helped us take photos, and provided us with a lovely handwritten note and framed picture as a souvenir. SO CUTE!
The rooms were surprisingly spacious and very clean, with a tatami mat floor. The futons are made when you are out and about in the town, which is a lovely surprise to come back to. The futon was very comfortable and felt heavenly after an evening spent soaking in the onsens. The hotel also has a private onsen which does not require a reservation - super relaxing later at night and in the early morning.
I highly recommend using the hotel's service to send your luggage to the train station when you check out - it frees up your chance to explore the town without having to lug your bags around, and the hotel is located right at the back of the town.
A standout experience for us, and we have not stopped raving about it and recommending it to all our friends. We will be back!
This is the best hotel I have stayed during my trip to Japan, and tbh, in all my travels. It is run by a mother and her son. They are the most welcoming hosts ever. Everything is very clean and cozy. They provide you with yukata, obi, basket to put your things, and the pass for all the onsens. I had a bit a struggle getting on the yukata, and his mom helped me get it on. Also, they also helped me take pictures and gave me a framed photo in the yukata. They are amazing. There is a cute coffee shop too. Furthermore, they personally dropped me off at the JR station that next day. One of my most memorable experiences in all of Japan, and I would definitely recommend staying here and also visiting kinosaki onsen.
Tsuchiya Ryokan is a traditional Japanese style inn situated deep in Kinosaki Onsen. It is about a 15 minute walk from the station and a 1 to 10 minute walk from any restaurant you may want to eat at in the town.
From my understanding the establishment is family owned and they live either nearby or on site. They were eager to deliver incredible service and even spoke more English than what I am used to experiencing in major cities.
The rooms were well heated, clean, and mine in particularly had an incredible view of a little creek/waterfall running through the backside of the town.
Unfortunately I booked a little late so I was not able to reserve dinner with the Ryokan, however the included breakfast was great, and the staff has many restaurant recommendations that they will happily mark on your google maps.
I really enjoyed this little town and my stay at the Tsuchiya Ryokan. I hope to come back soon in the Spring, though the winter in Kinosaki was quite beautiful.
By far the best Hotel I stayed at on my Trip to Japan! The Hotel is run by a Family which makes it their goal to make you feel at home and have the best possible time in Kinosakionsen. Would highly recommend staying here!
Amazing stay at the Tsuchiya Ryokan :) the family that runs this ryokan are incredibly hospitable, patient, and helpful. They explained everything around the town, about the onsen experience, and gave plenty of recommendations. Everything was spotless and they provided everything you need for your hotel stay, as well as visits to the onsen in town. They even give you a ride back to the station on your day of checkout! 10/10 recommend to come stay with them on your next visit!
My stay at this ryokan was excellent! The staff were very accommodating. I stayed in their Kiri room, which was perfect for a solo traveler. The location is at the end of the town's main street, steps away to two of the quieter public baths and still convenient for walking to the rest of town. Yukata, geta, and bathing amenities were provided. Staff offered rides to restaurants and the train station, and the tea upon arrival in your room was an extra special touch. I would recommend to anyone visiting Kinosaki.
This a family owned business. They were all super friendly, informative, and nice. We felt really welcomed and the service was top notch.
We were greeted when we first came by the son who spoke English very well and was excited in talking to us and getting to know us. He took pictures of us and even framed a photo for us. They also brought our bags to our rooms during check in.
The mom who is the owner was very friendly and helped me get dressed correctly when my outfit was too long. She also answered questions and was lovely to speak to. They brought out our beds for us when we went to the onsen.
The sister was also nice as well. She was in the cafe working for breakfast. Breakfast was super good. I recommend everyone to try the breakfast. One of the best egg sandwiches I ever had and lattes were cute to look at.
At checkout, they took our bags to the information center while we adventure the area a bit (for no cost). The mom also let us borrow an umbrella when it was raining (in which we dropped off at the information center to be returned).
I would totally book this place again (and add the dinner as well since we forgot to book the dinner included). They also gave us necessities needed for our stay and for the onsens. The private onsen was relaxing as well and not busy so it was a good way to end our night there. Location was good as it was close to good food locations and the other onsens.
