Authentic Japanese Experience: Many guests appreciated the traditional Japanese ambiance, including tatami rooms, futon beds, Japanese gardens, and the overall Ryokan-style setting. The lack of modern distractions like TVs was seen as enhancing the authenticity.

細節滿分💯環境也很好看！
主要不足就是温泉水温感覺太低
晚上也沒有餐
酒店外部燈光太暗，去的時候山下吃飯然後按照導航都不知道到了沒，到了也找不到前台……
所以如果去建議早定入住認好路在出去玩

Omakasea is not bad, the room is indeed a bit soundproof

Shizuka Ryokan is a little touch of Japan in country Victoria. The rooms are perfectly simple, comfortable and Zen; the food is amazing; and best of all is the friendly and attentive service (most of the staff are Japanese-born, living in Australia). I attended one of the seasonal yoga retreats with in-house instructor Renee and it was the perfect mix of rest, reflection and activity. Highly recommended.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at Shizuka Ryokan. The experience was exactly what we had expected, from check in to check out. Some of my friends and relatives thought we were actually in Japan! The room was spacious and beautifully presented. The tatami was just the right thickness, while the bath was simply relaxing. The breakfasts were so filling we skipped lunch on 2 of the days we were there, and the dinner was absolutely delicious. All the staff were very attentive. I could see that they enjoy what they do and love interacting with guests. I look forward to staying at Shizuka Ryokan again in the future.

I went there for treatments. I had a geshia facial and it was lovely, my face felt amazing afterwards. I also had the Japanese bathing experience w massage which was fantastic. Probably didn't need a whole hour in the bath tho. I still really loved it, perf3ct for a cold wintery day. The added green tea and matcha cookies/rice crispies at the end was an added deliciousness.

Having stayed in ryokans in Japan, this is a pretty authentic. The room is comfortable, the food is excellent and the "wellness" first rate. Dinner is only served on a few evenings; make sure you book. Breakfast is Japanese, which for most of us is an adventure; a regular "English" breakfast is available as an alternative. The staff could not be more attentive or helpful. Transporting one's luggage to the room is best done via the staff parking.

I would have preferred an option to sleep on a western style bed due to my age
[80 yrs] and not on a traditional floor setting otherwise my stay was a delight.

I was attending a yoga retreat over 3 days. This is a wonderful venue to host a yoga retreat as all the props, mats etc.. are provided by the establishment. The rooms were beautiful and so authentically Japanese, the bath tub was devine! I had a shiatsu massage, the masseuse was Japanese and it was so blissful. The meals (breakfast, afternoon tea, lunch and dinner) were Japanese and absolutely delicious. All the staff (mainly Japanese) were just wonderful, helpful, respectful, attentive and so pleasant to deal with. I felt, it was a real Japanese experience. I am planning to return next year for another yoga retreat.
