26.09.21We had a really nice stay at Kisoji no Yado Iwaya....a lovely traditional ryokan & a nice change from the more modern hotels we stayed in during our trip.
Our room was huge & overlooked the river....loved the calming sound of the water outside. The location was great too & we could easily walk everywhere around Kiso-Fukushima.
Really enjoyed the onsen & just the whole experience of staying in a traditional Japanese ryokan....comfortable, peaceful & full of character.
One small tip if you're travelling with heavy luggage....do let them know beforehand if you need a room with elevator access. We didn't & ended up carrying our luggage up & down 2 flights of stairs.
Overall, a lovely stay & we'd happily come back again!
26.05.27Polite staff and spacious room. Hot bath facilities was good for post hikes. Good for a local traditional stay.
24.12.10Great overnight on NAKASENDO trail. Staff was incredibly nice, onsen a good size and temperature. The only small downside is the floor beds were a bit hard for me, but my partner was fine
24.12.01The staffs are exceptionally helpful and accommodating. We arrived past 12 mn and we were delighted that they did stand by a staff to attend to us. The Kiso River trial is just 5 min walk away. Great location and view.
24.09.17Very helpful staff, great meals and onsen.
