The Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan stands on its own as a unique experience, not only by feeling the vibes of staying in a place that has over 1300 years of operation, but the world class service you receive from the staff who are beyond kind and friendly. One of the key things here to highlight is that they help you understand the rules of an onsen in a way that you can be a part of the experience and don’t disrupt others’ in a way that’s very clear and interesting at the same time. The food is absolutely out of this world, my wife and I love Japanese food in all its presentations but this was special; everything sourced locally and using only what’s seasonally available to prepare dinner and breakfast. In sum, I recommend this to any one, even more to those that want to be part of traditional Japan for the time you stay surrounded by the most amazing landscapes in the middle of the Minami Alps. We will be back for sure and will plan to stay more days, Thank you for a wonderful experience!
