Koyado Enn

The room was large for a Japanese room and the beds were very comfortable. First time staying in a ryokan. The price was worth it because we got free access any time to all the public onsens. If we had to pay, it’ll be JPY500-1000 per session. The ryokan also has 2 onsens for more privacy. When we were using it, no one else can come in. Was good “practice” for first time onsen users like us. At the ryokan, there is a Michelin star Tajima beef restaurant-reasonable prices for Michelin star. Tajima beef is same as Kobe beef but cheaper cos not so famous. Free breakfast at the cafe downstairs was superb. We can sit for free at the cafe downstairs from 4.30pm-7pm and get free drinks including wine,beer etc Location superb-5 minutes from Kinosakionsen Station, 10-15 minutes walk to any good restaurant. The staff were so helpful and the receptionist speaks English. WiFi a bit slow but I don’t think it’s the ryokan’s fault cos Kinosakionsen is a small town so may not have many towers. Will definitely return again and again. Very relaxing holiday

A perfect traditional hotel in this lovely spa town. It may seem a bit pricey but it includes a magnificent dinner (some of the best beef I've tasted), a free bar in the early evening, and free access to all the onsens in town, as well as yukata etc to visit them in. I had a traditional room with western beds, the ideal compromise for comfort and style in my view. Don't forget to visit the in-house onsen as well - very nice indeed.

Breakfast was served at the café at the bottom floor, you get a full tray of delicious food! Café here also had happy hour later in the day for hotel guests! Hotel staff was amazing, our tatami room was amazing, and they carried all our luggage for us! At some point I lost my passport, and the staff went out of their way to help me find it. Truly wonderful people. Hotel also has two private onsen baths, and we tried them both! No reservations, just wait until it's available and try not to occupy it longer than 40 min. You also get yukatas, obi belts, haori jackets (if it's cold), tabi socks and geta sandals to wear during your visit. Umbrellas and rain boots are available to borrow if it's raining. We're going back to Koyado Enn on our next visit! Definitely a highlight of our honeymoon! It was such a special and lovely hotel! 🥰

I got the traditional Japanese room and couldn't ask for a more perfect room. It really feels traditional without sacrificing comfort (there's an AC/heater and power strips with USB). The beds were extremely comfortable, there was a table in the room and it was very spacious. The private baths are amazing as well, and there's a system to know if they are in use or not before going there. I also had dinner with Tajima beef there and it was seriously one of the best meals I ever had. The whole menu was so delicious! I also had the breakfast and it was incredible as well. They help you set-up to go to the onsen, there's a yukata that you can borrow and even wellies (it was snowing for me). Seriously great service!

The staff were incredibly nice and helpful! They helped carry our luggage into the room and when checking out. They also spoke good English. The room was lovely and sizable, and the location a very short walk away from the onsen buildings. The price was also great compared to some other local ryokans. Free snacks, food and alcohol in the lounge. The restaurant located in the same building was previously included in a Michelin guide. Incredibly good food, I recommend it even with the somewhat high price! All in all, great experience staying here and will happily recommend it to any other visitors!
