Stay at RurishiIt was a very relaxing day.The quality of the hot spring in the room was different from other open-air baths, and it was good. It was a great time to forget about time while looking at the river.

I stayed for one night from October 6th (Sunday) in the 2-room Japanese-style room "Moegi" on the river side, located at the very back of the 1st floor of the main building. …

We spent 9,700 yen per person for the lunch and bath set.The meal service was provided by a Bangladeshi person who was kind and elegant.But no matter what I ask, there is no answer.The dishes used black vinegar well and were delicious, but as a result, all the dishes had similar tastes, which was disappointing. This is because my taste buds are dull.The bath was an open-air bath for women only. Although it was relatively small, people kept coming in, so I thought it would be okay to pay extra for a family bath.Since it's a high-class hotel with a good customer base, I thought the service was reasonable for this price.

I stayed for 2 nights. The room was clean and had a small open-air bath, so my mother, who is disabled, didn't have to go to the public bath. There was a chaise lounge in the bedroom, but I think it would be more convenient to have it in the living room since I can lie on the bed anyway. The food was prepared with local ingredients to the finest taste, and I was able to enjoy it for two days without getting bored. If I had the time and money to spare, I would have stayed a few more nights. There were no amateurs among the employees, and all of them were professionals, and even the foreigners seemed to have learned the etiquette of the tea ceremony, and the service was courteous and smart, making me feel at ease. Room service is available until 9pm, but if you ask for it at the end of your meal, it will be brought to you. It was nice that the drinks in the fridge were free. Since Ishihara-so and Gajoen are the only places around me, I'll be spending most of my time at the inn, so I think it would be nice to have a cafe during the day. I wanted to have coffee in the morning, but unfortunately I had no choice but to go to the rest area in the public bath or brew it from the Tetra Pak in the room. It would have been nice if they could provide service at the front desk. The shop mainly had items used at the hotel, but it would be helpful if there were a few more local sweets. Since I am planning to go again, I have written a request to make it even more comfortable, but overall I am very satisfied. It is not suitable for those who want a meal that looks luxurious and uses flashy ingredients, but it is highly recommended for those who want to enjoy a carefully prepared meal.
