This hotel was the highlight of our Japan Trip. We loved experiencing a traditional Ryokan. The staff was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. The onsen at the hotel was a great experience as well. We loved how Kaori hosted us for the Kaiseki dinner at our room. It was very interesting to try all the traditional dishes from Japan.

BOOK THIS HOTEL! Loved our stay and totally worth the 2.5 hour train ride from Osaka. Was able to check in promptly at 3 p.m. and our bags were whisked away to our room. We immediately received our onsen pass and were able to get in a bath before our kaiseki dinner. The next morning we were able to explore more of the public baths and had an amazing breakfast. The town shops open around 11 a.m. so you can really get away with one overnight stay if not more. Beautiful property, relaxing stay and a nice option to visit a tattoo friendly onsen town

The staff was incredible at this gorgeous property. A superb multi course dinner and breakfast were served in our room each day. The room also includes a pass to all the public onsen, but the hotel also has two Onsen for guests. I was the only one using them when I went. We hated to leave, and plan to return. I give this hotel the highest marks.

What was good: - Probably the ultimate Japanese ryokan experience, in a 150 year old inn. - staff generally very friendly and helpful - quality of food is very good What could be better: - Very expensive for what it is - Rooms are fairly basic - be prepared to be woken up early as the beds are taken away by 8am

it was the best ryokan experience ever could be imagine! Service is outstanding. The staff deal with us, westerners, in the most gracious manner possible explaining things about which we were ignorant. Food was great. Rooms and the garden are beautiful. It is an expensive property but it worths every penny of it.

An amazing experience staying at Nishimuraya Honkan ! Hotel staff were attentive from the moment we booked, to our stay and waving us good-bye. The hotel and garden was very beautiful. On the morning of check-out I went to the hotel’s onsen around 9am and got the whole place to myself ! So relaxing and calming. A unique experience staying in a traditional Japanese ryokan. Dinner and breakfast was a culinary delight! Haru was our host for mealtimes and she was so attentive and added to our overall experience. The whole town is charming and very picturesque and you've got 7 onsens to choose from. All the ryokan provide their guest with Yakata to wear around town which added more charm to the town. Definitely worth a side trip to Kinosakin Onsen when visiting Japan.

Kinosaki is a picturesque town with a canal running through it. I would rate Nishimuraya Honkan as one of the top ryokans I have visited. Up there with Gero Onsen Ryokan and Arashiyama's Togetsutei. I rate the Hotel, Staff and food as 5 star. Our room assistant, Natsumi, was always cheerful and helpful. We were a party of 6 and stayed two nights. The kaiseki dinners were excellent, well presented, and the best meal in our 4 weeks in Japan.

The staffs are very polite and helpful starting from the introduction, foods are delicious and the honkan hot springs are very clean. Quiet room and the temperature is just right. The staff serving the meal explains details in every dish. Kimono and yukata are provided. Shuttle services and easy access. We all had a good experience.
