The renovated western room was excellent. The staff were very helpful and the room was spotless. There is a large onsen attached to the hotel.
If you don’t pre-book breakfast it might not be available and there are limited food options in Amanohashidate.

Family trip
Wonderful onsen hotel very traditional feel to it. Beautiful room, not use to sleeping on traditional Japanese bed and pillow so not super comfortable for me but well worth the experience. Private onsen amazing. Great location easy to get to. Staff very friendly and helpful. Plenty of room for 4 adults

This hotel was an amazing one night stay. We had a outside Onsen room. It was so relaxing for my husband and I to use. The bathroom shower was spa like. All the hair & face products I loved. The PJ'S to relax in has made me want to purchase a pair while in Japan. I would stay here again. We did not purchase the food package and I will tell you for dinner in Amanohashidate they had 3 dinner choices. One restaurant that we couldn't get into, Ramen that was yummy that we ahd for lunch and a pizza place that was a 20 min taxi ride each way. Pizza was not a cheap dinner once you had the taxi ride into it. That was my only compliment about this town was dinner options. Everything closed really early around 5pm.

A Pleasant Surprise
A very pleasant stay and surprised that the rooms were so modern and well fitted with all the mod cons. Beds were very comfortable. Onsen facilities were very good. Location of the hotel was also good. Overall, a very good experience and I would recommend it to others.

We did not opt for the meal package so it’s possible we missed out on an amazing experience there but we did not miss out on the top level experience of the Kitanoya. Full Japanese ryokan room with the most luxurious 2 person open air granite ofuro I have ever seen let alone enjoyed with a delightful garden beyond.
We chose this place to unwind from the crowds of Kyoto and we could not have made a better choice.
Service was impecable. Can I give it a 6?
The hotel matches the incomparable beauty and serenity of Amanohasidate.

Spacious and comfy accommodation but come prepared
The hotel was very modern, clean, and the service was perfect. Staff were very attentive and helped us to reserve a restaurant. The only gripe was that the female’s onsen was not hot on one night. Male’s side was spectacular and I especially enjoyed the open air bath. Room-wise, it was extremely spacious and offered the perfect blend of traditional and modern with tatami mats and western style beds. For food, Do keep in mind that you need to inform the hotel staff 2 days before as they need some time to prepare. However, it was definitely worth it as the breakfast spread was scrumptious

We had a lovely stay at the hotel and the in room onsen was a real treat. The hotel is slightly out of town but no more than a 10 minute walk. The hotel itself is a little old fashioned but many of the hotel in this region seemed to be similar.

We had a fabulous stay at Hotel Kitanoya. Everything was to perfection. The onsen has both indoor and outdoor baths. You can sit under a canopy of trees and enjoy nature! Our spacious room had a picture-perfect view of the bay. The food was stupendous. Fresh, varied, and yummy. The staff are very professional and pleasant. They did everything to make our stay wonderful. The location is just a 6-minute walk to the station, and the hotel also provides a shuttle. I didn't want to leave!

Had a really wonderful trip to Miyazu, and my stay at Hotel Kitanoya was truly the highlight of the trip and one of the best decisions I made. As this was my first time staying in a ryokan and trying a kaiseki dinner, the experience exceeded all my expectations.
The room was very comfortable, clean, and spacious for two people even with our large luggage. The private open-air onsen in the room was definitely the best part of the stay. It was incredibly relaxing and made the whole ryokan experience feel extra special.
The kaiseki dinner was also beautifully prepared and delicious, making it a very memorable first experience. The entire ryokan had a peaceful, quiet, and calming atmosphere that made our stay even more enjoyable.
Service from the hotel staff was excellent. Everyone was warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay, which made us feel truly welcomed and well taken care of.
As for the location, we were self-driving during our trip in Japan, so I cannot comment much on the convenience for those relying on public transport. However, if you are driving, getting around is very convenient.
I would definitely recommend Hotel Kitanoya to anyone visiting Miyazu, especially for those looking to experience a traditional ryokan stay. Would love to return again in the future!

We were unable to make it to the hotel. The trains were down due to a typhoon. While asking the staff if they could do any type of refund, they refused. The staff, decided to be firm in their refund policy. Even though a typhoon hitting and closing down the trains to get to the hotel. They should be more relaxed on policy when it is out of the costumers control more specifically when it comes to natural disasters.
