The room was incredible, experience a lot of fun (Onsen and monkeys) and the breakfast / dinner were some of the best dining experience. The value is unmatched ! Tomo is a very helpful and kind host who thinks of every detail to make your stay unique and memorable (pick you up from the train station / book a private Onsen). We only stayed 2 nights but should of spend at least 4-5 nights as it was a very relaxing area and peaceful area - a stark contrast from the big cities.

Très beau petit Ryokan, beaucoup de charme, avec un personnel au petit soin et plein d'attentions au quotidien. Le petit déjeuner japonais est exceptionnel de qualité. On a accès d'autre part au fabuleux bains Momoyama a proximité. Un lieu à recommander absolument pour ceux qui veulent passer quelques jours dans la région

Clean, Beautiful, and Authentic
We loved Kamei no Yu! The two women operating the ryokan were exceptionally friendly (slight language barrier, but we managed) and offered fantastic hospitality. The room itself was lovely, with sliding doors opening onto the outdoor garden and a private ensuite bathroom/shower. There are small male and female onsens on site (separate), and you have access to several other public baths - one of which was big and beautiful and outdoors. Note that there isn't a mixed gender or private onsen available here, which initially scared us, but it ended up being an authentic and memorable experience at the public ones! Highly recommend.
