Thank you to the staff for creating a beautiful experience. The team was diligent, kind, and empathetic to our needs. Guest services provided excellent assistance with understanding Japanese etiquette and local traditions. Our host spoke English, as well as many other languages! We were so impressed with the effort everyone put in to make our stay and honeymoon special. We will never forget this trip.

Arrived to Kinosaki by train, sent our luggage ahead, and it was waiting in our room upon entry. Guest services welcomed us and explained the customs and rules of the ryokan. We were taken to our room, where our host showed us how to dress in yukata, booked our meals for our stay, and answered all our questions. It was a lovely chat that left us with enthusiasm. Later on, our hosts came back with a gift to share their well wishes for our honeymoon. We were so touched by their hospitality.

The room was stunning. The floors were very comfortable to sit on, and the view of the water garden left us feeling very relaxed. The treats inside the room were very yummy as well! We were also fully stocked with beverages, which were refilled daily. The onsens were truly magical, leaving us feeling rejuvenated. Breakfast was incredible!

If we were to ever return to Kinosaki, we would happily stay at Onishiya Suishoen again.

Very worth it to stay in this ryokan! Upon arriving at the kinosakionsen station, free shuttles were available to drop you off at your ryokan or hotels. The ryokan was modernized but still had the traditional japanese cultural vibes. The front desk staff and welcoming committee were great as well. It was raining and I accidentally forgot to order dinner so my husband and I had to go out, and the town was 10 minutes away if you walk it out and they had shuttles available to drop us off between 4 to 10p and that includes pick up, just give them a call with their whatsapp line. The breakfast and dinner were keiseki meal and were very fresh and worth it. The onsen was also amazing!

The onsen here is even better than most of the public onsens in the town. The hotel has lots of complimentary amenities like the lounge area with free massage chairs, soft drinks, sweets; foot massage machine. Their Japanese room for a family of 4 is quite spacious with a separate family area and sleeping area. The room also has a private garden. If you get the meals there, you get a private dining room and 10 course meal. Overall, we felt like we got the VIP treatment.

The room were nice and clean and had all needed amenities. We were picked up from the station in a shuttle bus with other hotel customers and at our arrival we were kindly greeted by staff who gave us a full tour and explanation of the property. The staff was always attentitve and kind with us. We also had dinner and breakfast included and they were delicious. Unfortunately, it was a bit too much food for us, which is a nice problem to have, but also a lot of waste. In general, everything was 10/10 and I would definitely come back and highly recommend it. The on-site onsen was also great for when you would like a late night or super early bath and have had enough of the town onsens.

A reasonably priced ryokan in Kinosaki Onsen, which is tattoo tolerant. Very good breakfasts and dinner in traditional ryokan style. Very accommodating staff. Nice additions to their onsen area are sauna and outdoor cold plunge, not often found in Onsen. A bit of a hike from town but convenient free shuttle service.

This was a must-do experience. The staff was super friendly. We hadn't booked a meal with our stay, so the staff called the local restaurant to find if they can accommodate our dietary needs (vegan). They made us a reservation and even sent us with a handwritten note in Japanese. The shuttle is very convenient to visit all the Onsens in the town. In hindsight, for a full experience, we should have booked a meal with our stay and called the hotel in advance to request vegan options.

Booked to experience a traditonal room that had a kotastu and tatami mats with half board kaiseki dinner and traditional breakfast. The ryokan shows its age but is also part of the charm. The outdoor onsen perfect to soak away the busy-ness of the city as a one night getaway as part of a trip. With a smaller quiet resort and private room dinning you feel spoiled. The staff friendly and accomodating. There was free beer and water in the room fridge, free coffee in the lobby and free treats and ice pops in the lounge. The dinner was wonderful adjusted locally for the season. We were sad that we had missed the crab season being early by a week. Recommend using luggage services to send ahead to the next hotel before going or leave luggage at Kyoto station to travel light. You can wear Yukatas throughout the onsen town as you explore.

We had the beautiful and delicious Kaiseki dinner and breakfast as a celebration for our wedding anniversary. We really appreciated the dining staff lady helping us with the crab meat.

We also tried their onsite onsen which was very convenient before we checked out (sauna open in evening). The massage chairs and free ice cream in the lounge area were greatly appreciated, too. Free beer and water in our fridge was a bonus.

We received our yukatas and onsen pass and were able to try 2 onsens in Kinosaki town. They had free shuttle car service between 4-10pm for easy pick-up and drop-off. We loved the centre garden with the koi and noh theatre stage. We felt well taken care off and would stay at this ryokan again!

The place was great. The room was massive and was a good size for a family of 4. Although the hotel itself is more out of the way compared to a few others that are right near the other 7 onsens it makes up for it with the great service, free shuttle and their own lovely onsen.

Although we got there earlier than our check in time and before they provided the shuttle into the main part they still offered us a lift to the ropeway which was helpful on a hot day.

Their own onsen also had an outdoor bath and a cold one as well which was great.

They had people that could speak mandarin and Cantonese which was useful for my parents. Everyone always had a smile on their face.

Pickup service at train station. Early check in and service is excellent. However the breakfast set is mostly pickled vegetables which is not worth the price. When I asked for coffee while in the dining room, I was asked to go to the coffee machine. After breakfast, I went to pick up a coffee at lobby. However I saw the same service staff was at the coffee machine to take coffee.

Wonderful stay! Very pretty property, roughly 10 min walk from center of town. Management was very friendly, had plenty of amenities, and gave us a room with a nice view of the garden. Dinner and breakfast was fantastic, although a bit more than we could comfortably eat. Wish we could have stayed more than one night!

Maybe have more signs in English and breakfast with jam and coffee available.
Nice if can provide more selection on locally sourced fish fillets for kaizeki dinners

Kinosaki Onsen was lovely and ryoka was perfect

It was beautiful, peaceful, and comfortable. The Onsen at the hotel was my favorite and even had outdoor bath. The staff were so welcoming and attentive. I was able to have an in-room massage which was a highlight. The tatami mats and traditional futon were very comfortable. The breakfast was luxurious and worth the price. I appreciated the shuttle that picked me up from town.

Lovely riyokan- staff were very attentive, sweet, and gracious. The kaiseki dining was exquisite and a wonderful experience. The service was excellent, even when my suitcase fell apart and I needed assistance.

Attendant was extremely helpful upon arrival even with language barrier. Yukata were brought up after arrival , so they were chosen to size (not assumed one size fits all). The room was spacious, beautiful and fully furnished. Our futons were laid out while we were strolling through the bath houses, and upon check out we were given a complimentary ride to the Kinosaki onsen ropeway. All around amazing experience. The only regret is that we didn't stay longer to enjoy all the onsite amenities. Would recommend to anyone wanting a lovely experience in Kinosaki.

Bautiful property. Very difficult to conversate with the staff, only speak very limited English. Difficult to get to, we arrived in the evining and did not receive trasportation information in a timely matter. Only limited time to spend at the onsen, and had to walk back to the hotel since we could not call the hotel bus. Huge construction on the road, so it was dangerous to walk back to the hotel in the dark. Onsen is very over rated. Personally I think there may be better option for non-Japanese travelers.

5/5 stars. Staff went above and beyond expectations. It was raining so hard the day we checked out and they offered us a ride to the train station. The front desk also helped us cancel our kimono reservation in Kyoto which was very helpful. Food was amazing. The room we stayed in was clean, spacious and beautiful. The facility is very beautiful. The hospitality of this hotel was too notch. We will definitely stay again
