"Just wonderful. Beautiful traditional elegant inn with old school Japanese omotenashi. Loved the warmth of the staff. Service was top notch without being pretentious. Unreal location near everything."

"Had a really wonderful trip to Miyazu, and my stay at Hotel Kitanoya was truly the highlight of the trip and one of the best decisions I made. As this was my first time staying in a ryokan and trying a kaiseki dinner, the experience exceeded all my expectations. The room was very comfortable, clean, and spacious for two people even with our large luggage. The private open-air onsen in the room was definitely the best part of the stay. It was incredibly relaxing and made the whole ryokan experience feel extra special. The kaiseki dinner was also beautifully prepared and delicious, making it a very memorable first experience. The entire ryokan had a peaceful, quiet, and calming atmosphere that made our stay even more enjoyable. Service from the hotel staff was excellent. Everyone was warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay, which made us feel truly welcomed and well taken care of. As for the location, we were self-driving during our trip in Japan, so I cannot comment much on the convenience for those relying on public transport. However, if you are driving, getting around is very convenient. I would definitely recommend Hotel Kitanoya to anyone visiting Miyazu, especially for those looking to experience a traditional ryokan stay. Would love to return again in the future!"

"What an amazing experience! The propert was excellent, amazingly welcoming, clean and great location. The hosts were very nice and we had a privilege to attend the band practice at the restaurant. This is a great and authentic ryokan, breakfast was included and was very delicious and traditional. The traditional bath was the absolute charm after a long day. I would highly recommend this place!"

"Was told to pay 7623 JPY during checkout for an outstanding buffet dinner on the 11/02/2026 which I have already paid on that day. I tried to use my bank app to check but unfortunately the app has loading issues due to network. In the end I managed to find the payments "

"Great room with a nice view. Staff were really friendly and helpful - food was amazing also would definitely recommend! "

"amazing hotel, cozy Japanese room with an incredible view to the ocean. the hotel staff were also very helpful in providing restaurant recommendations and giving us rides to the train station!"

"Great property! Clean, comfortable, well-equipped kitchen. Only one bedroom (upstairs) has actual beds. The downstairs bedroom has Japanese style futons. The stairs to the second floor are circular and somewhat steep, a challenge for those with mobility limitations or heavy luggage. Lots of space indoors for kids to play, but none outside. The house it built on stilts over a very steep slope, almost a cliff.The Main difficulties checking in were (1) the contact phone is not correct, and (2) Google maps does not show the address given,instead returning generic area view. Vrbo text chat was totally useless! It did not recognize the reservation number sent from Vrbo by email. A phone call to Vrbo customer support was necessary. The human agent was able to identify the reservation, sent a working number, and a link that correctly located the property on Google Maps.However, the contact phone number provided a lengthy intro, but only in Japanese. Fortunately, my Japanese friend handled that. The instructions warned that help was available only for those who had reserved properties through Rakuten, which threw us off for a bit, when we answered "Not through Rakuten". When we answered "Yes" anyway, we were put through to a helpful agent who straightened everything out and gave us the contact number for the actual owner. The owner herself was very helpful, but we did not meet in person and were able to enter using a "hidden" key. You MUST know Japanese to rent this property!"
