"Founded in 1484, this esteemed ryokan carries over five centuries of history and I was struck by its central feature — a Noh stage poised over a reflective pond — which still hosts traditional Japanese performing arts like Noh, Kyogen comedy, Shinnai storytelling, and seasonal Japanese dance. Rooms are lined with tatami mats and shoji screens, the gardens are meticulously manicured into living works of art, and the hot spring baths draw from centuries of restorative waters." - The MICHELIN Guide
