Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
There’s no doubt this is an excellent hotel. But the question is whether it’s excellent enough to justify its price. Not quite was our conclusion. Service was absolutely sensational and the overall feel of the hotel is absolutely wonderful as an authentic Ryokan experience. But there is just a bit of wear and tear in the rooms and the onsen area isn’t all that impressive for a hotel of this caliber. Little things like a broken espresso machine (meaning none available in the hotel)

We were gifted a night at Gora Kadan for our honeymoon, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the breathtaking views and serene traditional gardens to the soothing onsen and stone baths, every detail felt magical. Delicious food and the hospitality was unforgettable—the staff came out to wave goodbye as we drove away, and I actually shed a tear leaving such a special place. While the property could use a light refresh, its timeless charm and deep sense of tradition made it one of the most memorable experiences of my life. If I ever return to Japan, I will absolutely make it a point to stay here again.

Very surprised that there were areas that were not clean - nor appeared as though any attention had been paid to in a long time. The setting was beautiful and the lobby magnificent. Correspondence was excellent. Spa services extremely disappointing. Menu wasn't great.

Just perfect. The entire experience of staying at this traditional Japanese ryokan was just amazing. The gorgeous multi-course kaiseki meals served in your room were stunning and delicious. Japanese hospitality is second to none. The grounds are lush and the amenities clean and peaceful. We had an onsen in our room which was so relaxing. Pricy but life is about experiences, and this one was divine.
