Cottages in Kashima District

"No bell desk, no water in the room, extra towels with charge, this is not a great hot spring hotel in Japanese standard, but considering this is a rural area hotel serving mostly local people, I can accept these "

"It’s still new "

"Staffs are so helpful and kind. Tatami room is really uncomfortable for elderly people."

"This was a beautiful experience, it felt like a real Japanese lifestyle, the owners were very serviceable and so sweet, it is a genuine place, not like a modern ryokan, this was the real deal"

"We had most wonderful time there. It’s different one of the most special experiences we had. We had panoramic views of the bay from our room and amazing omakase dinner with unlimited alcohol included. We also loved the beautiful minimal design and amazing hospitality from the stuff. Lastly, don’t miss the dolphin cruise! We had the most closeup encounters with wild dolphins. It was definitely a cherry-on-top experience for the whole trip. "

"I thought the property was nice and close to Takaoka station. The room was pretty big compared to the average Japanese hotel, but the room chair for the desk was a simple stool. If you are someone who likes to go shopping at a grocery store for food, the nearest one was about 15-20 minute walk away. Not much was happening around this area, it didn't seem to offer much in tourist attractions, besides a few statues. If you are using it as a base to explore Toyama through Kanazawa, it's not too bad, but the local trains can be pretty crowded during rush hours. The nearest shinkansen station is a 20 minute train ride away. If you like a quiet town without the craziness of tourists, this place is a good stay."

"Great stay overall, good daily necessities. Room is slightly small but the service and amenities more than make up for it"
