Everything is great❣️Geihanro will issue you a ticket for the taxi fare from Inuyama Station to the inn.(Same from the inn to Inuyama Station)Dinner at the inn is Japanese cuisine, but if you are staying for multiple nights, you can also use our sister restaurant, Ichito (Teppanyaki).Meals at the inn are served in private rooms.We also have dinner available.Breakfast is Japanese or Western food.The room has Ryukyu tatami and a sofa.There is a roll screen between the living room and bed space (although I have never used it).You can see Inuyama Castle from the terrace of your room.All rooms have natural hot springs.The large bath can be reserved for 30 minutes.There are no obstructions in the surrounding area, so you can enjoy the sunset on the Kiso River, the sightseeing boat on the Kiso River, and the illuminated Inuyama Castle.You can enjoy different scenery depending on the season and time of day.I want to stay at this inn, so I'm going to Inuyama.I have already made a reservation for the next time♪The reason my location is ★★★★ is because I have bad legs and use a cane.Before using a cane, it would be ★★★★★.

My favorite inn recently.The quality of the spring water is also good and makes it smooth. You can relax in a private bath with a castle view or a bath in your room.The room is convenient and there are a variety of cold drinks available in the refrigerator, so it might be a good idea to brew a cup of coffee or tea.The food is also delicious. The course progressed nicely and deliciously, and the final meal had an impact! That's what it means. I like this kind of thing.The waitstaff are always pleasant and explain the dishes thoroughly, so I really enjoy my meal time.After dinner, I relaxed for a while in the lounge, then went back to my room and had Inari. perfection.The breakfast is also wonderful, with many delicious dishes prepared in small portions.The staff at the front desk are also very nice.

I love castles, and I've always wanted to visit Inuyama Castle because it's an existing castle tower, so I researched nearby lodging options and based on word of mouth, this seemed like a good option, so this was my first visit.When I visited, I took a taxi from the station, but there was no one to pick me up when I arrived. When I entered the facility, no one was there, and when I called, no one came, so I wondered what was wrong.After a while, a group of cleaners passed by, chatting loudly. (It's not their job to greet the girls, so I thought it was rude and didn't greet them.)After a while, a staff member finally came out.As for the evening and morning meals, they were served in a private room like a typical restaurant, and there was nothing special about the food or the service (maybe the person serving them was a part-time worker?), including the staff's response during the visit mentioned above. I felt that it was rather expensive considering the price (over 75,000 yen per person for 2 people per night, approximately 150,000 yen for 2 people).However, considering that there are few competing accommodations in the vicinity of Inuyama, considering it is a tourist destination, I wondered if this price could be set.

The room was clean. As for service, please serve customers with a smile and provide thorough behind-the-scenes service. There is a disparity when it comes to customers arriving by car, but Toyota Lexus has a good customer service with a smile. When customers come to Honda N Box, they are cold and heartless. Please bring smiles to everyone.

The food was good, and so was the staff. I thought I had booked a large suite, but it faced the road, and I met someone in the parking lot. I can see it from the bathroom, so I hesitate to open the wooden door. It was so hot that the air conditioner wasn't very effective, probably because the ceiling of the room was so high.There is a slightly larger bath on the second floor with a view of Inuyama Castle, and each room can only be reserved for 2-30 minutes, so it was a shame that only one family could fit in as we went with two families.The quality of the spring water is excellent. I mistakenly thought it was a room along the river, and also thought it was on the second floor, so I made a mistake. All rooms are on the first floor, so I think it's better to get a room facing the river. If you omit that, the rating would be 5.

I wanted to see cormorant fishing, so I stayed here without knowing much about Inuyama.All the staff were very nice and the accommodation was very nice! Mr. Oinari also made us a late-night snack, and there were so many drinks in the room that we couldn't finish them all. Since our room was on the Inuyama Castle side, we could see Inuyama Castle beautifully lit up at night from our balcony. And for the most important part, cormorant fishing, a boat picked us up right below our hotel, so we were able to move around easily.The food was delicious, and the hot spring water was slightly slippery, making my skin smooth and smooth. It was nice to have a private bath as it was a nice large hot spring, but 30 minutes is a bit short, so I think you could have more time if you reserved it for about 40 to 45 minutes.Also, the Supima cotton pajamas were so comfortable that I wish I had bought them (lol).

Stayed at KISO Executive Suite during cherry blossom season.This is a comfortable room facing the Kiso River.You can see Inuyama Castle from the second floor.There is a terrace on the Kiso River side and a roof, so you can get some shelter from the rain, and even if the weather is a bit bad, you can cool off on the terrace after taking a bath.I felt it was a very well-balanced room considering the price.The cleaning is thorough, the windows are shiny, and the sofas don't have a single stain.It was completely different from other small luxury accommodations, and it was very clean.The customer service was very pleasant, and everything I requested over the phone in advance was perfect, so I was able to stay with peace of mind.Also, everyone was well-groomed and full of professionalism.Although the customer service was smart and not rude, I was impressed by how warm and caring the customer was.The food was also very delicious.Up until now, I had tended to avoid Japanese food, but it was so delicious that it made me change my mind and realize that Japanese food is good too.This is a recommended accommodation for those who are looking for quality that exceeds price.When accommodation costs exceed 100,000 yen per night, the judges tend to be stricter, so I think there is a price range where there is a clear distinction between good and bad.When making a reservation, we recommend that you check whether the accommodation is the one you are looking for before deciding to stay.This time it was cherry blossom season, but next time I would like to stay in a different season.

This time I stayed in a Japanese-style standard double room ~ the overall accommodation experience was great.The hotel is quiet and comfortable, with private dining space, and a public bathhouse for individual use by reservation (there is also a private bath in the room for unlimited use), which is very suitable for travelers who value privacy;The hotel staff were attentive and considerate. In addition to explaining the meal in detail, they found that we had finished our dinner and provided us with extra midnight snacks to take back to the room;My husband and I are very happy to choose Yingfan Building as our honeymoon accommodation in Inuyama Station~
