10/10 Exceptional

This was one of the most memorable expiriences I had during my trip to Japan. Ohara overall is such a charming town. The staff at the inn were very kind and attentive. Our room was so cozy and we even got lucky with a room that included a private bathroom. The food was amazing as well.

In Japan for a month. This was by far the best place I stayed. Staff was amazing. Food is great. Rooms are clean and spacious. And the onsen is relaxing and peaceful. Great Japanese ryokan experience. The staff was so friendly and nice. Felt like I was staying at a friend’s house—except it didn’t have to help with chores.
Matthew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff and atmosphere was amazing. It is a perfect retreat from the busy streets of the big cities. The food was amazing, traditional, and filling and the baths are clean and enjoyable. The surrounding village is also beautiful. We came during the hot month of September and it was still very enjoyable to be in the hot springs. I would highly recommend the Ohara No Sato to people looking for an authentic, traditional Japanese experience.

Terrible service, very unpleasant.
Terrible customer service, please reconsider. If you have come across any issues with bookings, the customer service will NOT reach out and help. There are heaps of ryokans out there that offers better service.

Very well maintained property with an amazing garden! I loved the details and decoration of Ghibli Studios all over the place! The staff were very kind and attentive! I felt relaxed and well taken care of during my stay. I would recommend this to those who enjoy the countryside and onsen!

Great Japanese Hotel
The hotel is amazing. Japanese style bedroom with hot spring makes the experience more wonderful. The staff are kind and helpful, and they do their best to fulfill our request. Definitely recommend this place for those who want to try living in a Japanese hotel style for the experience, and want to stay close to the mountain and nature instead of being in the city.

8/10 Very good

Simple accommodation in a charming location.
I was very uncertain about staying here due to some of the other reviews and the difficulty of getting here. I needn’t have worried. This is simple accommodation in amazing surroundings. The village of Ohara is charming, the bus is easy, and the 20 minute walk that others mention is a lovely walk through the village. I admit you wouldn’t want to do it with much luggage (but they will pick you up if you phone). Lovely, simple, segregated outside onsen. Food is amazing.

This is a Minshuku not a Ryokan as Expedia markets/lists it as. There is a difference if you're looking for Ryokan please do not book this. With that being said the staff working here were amazing they were very kind and helpful. Once they knew about I had an old injury to my knee they went above and beyond to be accommodating to me. They serve dinner and breakfast with dinner being a hotpot style of soup and breakfast being a traditional Japanese breakfast of fish, miso soup, and rice. The onsen is not private it is shared but divided between the sexes with each side being swapped daily so you can experience each side. There is a small outside bath that seats two which is more exposed to nature. This place is a about a 15min walk from the bus stop and it is at an incline that gets worse the further you go up the mountain. The rooms are traditional with some having a private toilet while others you have to share the community restrooms scattered through the inn. I definitely recommend coming here if you goal is to get away and relax in peace and quiet

When me and my companion arrived Ohara bus station, we informed the minshuku and the staff arrived quickly and picked us up. He was very nice and explained to us what we could do around the small town. It was the season of firefly sighting so we decided to explore the town at night, he noticed that me and my companion was wearing short sleeves and quickly told us to wear a jacket to protect us from insect bites, he even lend us a torch as it was quite dark on the streets. Even though we couldn’t communicate very well in English, I felt the warmth and hospitality of the staff. As for the spaces of the minshuku, the design is quite traditional, we love it as we could experience the essence traditional Japanese architecture (especially the garden!) The outdoor onsen was a surprise, taking a bath in the nature surrounded by the forest is an unforgettable experience and we really enjoyed it. We ordered dinner and breakfast, both meals are simple yet full of characteristic, especially their home made miso paste. The dining area is next to the garden, we enjoyed our meals with the sight of nature. Overall, the whole experience is very homely and the staffs are friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend others to stay at Ohara no Sato or come visit as a getaway from the busy city life of Kyoto and enjoy the beautiful countryside of Ohara.

Super Möglichkeit, um in einer traditionell japanischen Minshuku zu übernachten und die Onsen zu erleben. Die Unterkunft ist in die Jahre gekommen, aber eigentlich sauber & die Mitarbeiter sind herzlich. Das Essen war auch gut, man sollte jedoch Miso mögen, weil es diese Morgens Abends gibt. Sehr zu empfehlen sind die selbstgemachten Miso-Karamellbonbons. In der Umgebung kann man die Tempel besichtigen und es gibt auch viele gute Cafés. Wir blieben eine Nacht und das war für uns perfekt für dieses Erlebnis & Erkundung der Umgebung.
