오베르주 히다노모리

What an absolutely amazing property. Everything about this hotel is thought out and intentional, from the entrance to the lobby, the food to the music they play. This is the best of Japanese hospitality with western comforts. The property is very minimalistic in the best way possible. It is modern danish meets Japanese style set in a beautiful and quiet area outside of town. If your looking for a place to rest and get away from the craziness Japan can be... This is it! Don't be turned off by the lack of shower in the rooms. Each room has a private toilet and sink. Yes, the showers are shared but think of it as a private onsen. There are two showers rooms. Each one is private and lockable and suitable for 2 people so you can shower with your partner. There is a changing area and wet room that has two separate shower heads and a beautiful wooden hot tub. It was an amazing and relaxing experience, not at all a downside. The rooms are very simple but clean and comfortable with western style beds. The hotel is located outside of the city but the hotel has luxury vans and is willing to shuttle you. Let me also say the food is AMAZING. Meals are served at set times and worth taking a part of. Meals are western style and delicious. My wife and I are foodies and have eaten at some of the best restaurants around the world and trust me when I say the coursed dinner was michelen star worthy! It was so good we ate there twice. Lastly the owners that run the property are absolutely delightful their service is 5 star, this is their home and they make you feel as their special guests. Do not hesitate in booking this hotel. It will be one of the highlights of your time in Japan.
