This is the most wonderful place, full of history and character and charm, owned by the same proud family for centuries. The onsen water is free flowing (gensen kakenagashi) and is deliciously hot and pure. I would suggest visitors read a bit about the ryokan's history (on the website) and the history of the Taira-Minamoto Wars. There is a Heike-themed historical village nearby, good to visit. The food at the ryokan is excellent. It's Heike-style, using local-sourced ingredients.

When I booked I asked to upgrade my room if one became available. They emailed saying it was possible but when I saw the price of the upgrade I didn’t confirm it with them. At the end of my trip I got charged for it as they had upgraded us anyway without my knowledge. It was therefore much more expensive than planned. In the confirmation email I was told there was only one bus from the station each day so changed my travel plans and this was not the case there were multiple buses.

Beautiful, old building in the purest japanese style. Room was big and traditional. A beautiful Japanese dinner is given in another very old building on the other side of the river and we had to cross the beautiful bridge dressed in Yukatas to get there. Personnel did speak very sparse English but was very polite, helpful and patient. A perfect experience!

Honke Bankyu provides us with a pleasant ryokan experience. The decor of the historical building and our room is quite unique. We enjoyed the course dinner and breakfast. There is a direct bus to get to the front entrance of Honke Bankyu. The surrounding area is very scenic.

It was exceptional. The staff was so welcoming, the place is out of this world. The rooms were just incredible, and I am not talking about the dinner and the onsen, yet…. Magical… we really felt in another era… we absolutely loved it.

I keep coming back here at least once a year. This is the quintessential ryokan experience. There's absolutely nothing I can say that would match how joyful it is to stay here. Book now.

The magic starts with the "welcome ceremony" and never ends. The Ryokan is amazing with wonderful onsens and a nice bridge over the mountain river. The dinner was simply incredible.
