I feel completely cheated by Forest Otonashi Ryokufuen. I booked what was described as a Deluxe Room, expecting at least a basic private bathroom. When I arrived, I was shocked to find that the bathroom was sealed off and unusable — meaning there’s actually no bathroom in the room at all. This was never mentioned anywhere on their booking page.
What’s even more frustrating is that for their Standard Room, it clearly states “shared bathroom,” but for the Deluxe Room I booked, there was no such note. Naturally, I assumed it had a private bathroom — as anyone would.
If I had known earlier, I would have definitely stayed somewhere else. For a place marketed as a ryokan with deluxe rooms, this is completely misleading. The lack of transparency ruined what should have been a relaxing stay. Travelers deserve to know exactly what they’re paying for — and this place failed badly in that regard.
That said, the room itself was spacious, and while the furniture was dated, the tatami mats seemed newly replaced. Breakfast was decent and in line with what I’d expect from a traditional inn. The entire property looks old with some rotten doors at the corner
Would I recommend this place? Only if you’re comfortable showering in a public bath area with no cubicle or privacy. I acknowledge that this is part of Japanese culture, but it’s not something I’m used to or expected, especially for a “deluxe” room.
Overall, this stay left me very disappointed and feeling misled. Travelers deserve clear, honest information — and this property failed badly in that regard.
Beautiful onsen — our favorite stay in Japan with my family! The traditional breakfast was delicious with a very large selection of dishes. The rooms are gorgeous, quiet, and spacious — and everything was exceptionally clean. The cleaning crew truly does an amazing job.
The reception staff were very friendly and helpful, making us feel warmly welcomed. The location is excellent, just a short walk from the train station, and having a washer and dryer available for guests was a big plus.
Highly recommended — we would love to stay here again!
