I was very satisfied with my last visit and stayed at the request of my wife. When I visited Takachiho about 5 years ago, I couldn't stay at the hotel because the reservation was full, and I succeeded in revenge. The increase in accommodation costs, which was 70,000 yen for two people per night and two days, greatly exceeded the rate of price increase, and it is an impression that the luxury route was clearly spurred. It seems that the generations have changed, the landlady has rejuvenated, and the direction has changed slightly. An annex was being expanded. The room was large, but it was just too simple and lacking in individuality. There is no large communal bath, and there are indoor and outdoor baths in the room. The open-air bath is a circulation type, but it is heated hot spring water. It's a luxury. Personally, I wanted a large communal bath, even if it was small. Last time we had dinner around the hearth, but this time we had a table and chairs in a private room where classics flowed. The food was delicious. However, it lacks the uniqueness of Miyazaki. I ignored all the information about expensive options. The alcohol menu is also a high-class line, and wine seems to be the best choice, but it is three times the price on the market. Breakfast was also a private room, and there were many items, so it was delicious. Two Chagall lithographs were exhibited on the wall of the private room. It was real, but not so expensive. This Chagall choice is subtle for a pure Japanese inn. There were other lithographs by Kaii Higashiyama and Ikuo Hirayama in the ryokan, but I think it is better to have a sense of unity rather than a mix of Japanese and Western styles. Overall, I was a little less satisfied than when I stayed last time, probably because I was too satisfied when I stayed last time. However, I think it is a recommended luxury inn in Takachiho. Personally, I no longer have the absolute feeling that I should definitely do it after staying this time. I'm a little disappointed. If you call yourself a pure Japanese-style inn, I think there was a strategy to stick to pure Japanese-style inns. Like a famous furniture company, I felt it was difficult to change generations. The next time I visited Takachiho, I wanted to try and compare different luxury inns. However, I feel that I will be doing it the next time I visit Takachiho. I look forward to seeing how it has evolved by the time of my next stay.
