Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The staff and atmosphere was amazing. It is a perfect retreat from the busy streets of the big cities. The food was amazing, traditional, and filling and the baths are clean and enjoyable. The surrounding village is also beautiful. We came during the hot month of September and it was still very enjoyable to be in the hot springs. I would highly recommend the Ohara No Sato to people looking for an authentic, traditional Japanese experience.

Very nice quite heritage area surrounded by trees and heritage properties as well as river flowing through.
The property is the best value for money authentic Japanese Onsen stays we have come across.
Very nice and helpful staff.
Very well maintained property with an amazing garden! I loved the details and decoration of Ghibli Studios all over the place! The staff were very kind and attentive! I felt relaxed and well taken care of during my stay. I would recommend this to those who enjoy the countryside and onsen!
It was nice. I just walked around and enjoyed the views.

Simple accommodation in a charming location.
I was very uncertain about staying here due to some of the other reviews and the difficulty of getting here. I needn’t have worried. This is simple accommodation in amazing surroundings. The village of Ohara is charming, the bus is easy, and the 20 minute walk that others mention is a lovely walk through the village. I admit you wouldn’t want to do it with much luggage (but they will pick you up if you phone). Lovely, simple, segregated outside onsen. Food is amazing.
My stay was amazing, the staff is super nice and helpful. The Onsen was great to relax and the neighborhood exquisite, remote and quiet.
I highly recommend this place.
The hotel is amazing. Japanese style bedroom with hot spring makes the experience more wonderful. The staff are kind and helpful, and they do their best to fulfill our request. Definitely recommend this place for those who want to try living in a Japanese hotel style for the experience, and want to stay close to the mountain and nature instead of being in the city.
My favorite parts were the Onsen and the Kotatsu. The staff were very kind and helpful to me even though I didn't speak japanese. Id highly recommended staying here if you want to see the beautiful countryside of Kyoto.
Coming to Ohara no Sato was the best idea to escape for a short while the hustle and bustle of Kyoto as it is only an hour away from Kyoto and easy to reach. If you are looking for an authentic Japanese experience and want to go back to the beauty and the basics of Japanese countryside it is a really good place to be. I really liked the onsen after a good walk. Also dinner, you make your own hot pot was great as you get an idea what it all contains. Staff although not speaking much English (which is ok) were very helpful and kind. Thank you for this wondeful experience!
The pictures does not match the actual state and condition of the hotel. The hotel was very run down. There was no mention of many stairs, which my parents cannot stay because they could not take so many steps. I have been misrepresented and when I asked for a refund, they refused. Please do what is necessary to get a refund from them.
The accomodation has a great location. It's situated near the local bus stop and near the main attractions of Ohara but you still get the feeling of beautiful countryside. The property itself is really nice and the rooms were wonderfully prepared. We especially loved the onsens, so great for relaxing! The staff is welcoming and they always try their best to help, even though they do not speak english that well, so communication was not an issue. You should know there is only one convenience store nearby, thus it's best to bring your own food (but you can order breakfast and dinner beforehand). We would recommend this place in a heartbeat. Loved the experience.
