Reviews for Hiogiso
Review 1:In an exceptional landscape right at the sea level in the Ago bay, two wonderful hosts welcome you kindly, propose you tasty Japanese meals, and then a relaxing bath in their beautiful onsen. The day finishes in a typical room with the best comfort and a perfectly silent night. The feast continues on the next day, with an excellent nippon breakfeast. This is the best ryokan we visited during our stroll through this region of Japan.
Review 2:extremely helpful and forthvoming personnel. Dinner was wonderful, we took a boat ride to see the sunset and surrounding islands. When leaving they had made lunch boxes for our trip, drove us to the station with a detour to the post office and a local view point - all for free!! Would recommend it to anyone with all my heart. Been to Japan countless times and this tops everything in terms of service and hotel/facilities.
Review 3:Shared showers for the japanese style room in the public bath.
Review 4:The staff was really helpful and accommodating of all my specific requirements, and even let me use the private bathroom of another room when they saw my face after saying the shared showers were together with the public bath. The food was amazing, especially the kaiseki dinner with plenty of local seafood. The view on the Ago bay was also very nice and since the hotel is a bit remote, they have a free shuttle minibus that you can use if you book in advance.
Review 5:As a traditional Japanese Hotel Hiogiso had perfect style and ambience with minimalist interiors and a great spa bath. After two weeks of travelling in Japan we needed more creature comforts, the hotel did what they could to help.
Review 6:The staff did their upmost to make our stay at Hiogiso perfect. The 'continental' breakfast was a feast and a welcome change for our children, thank you. An unforgettable location.
Review 7:Excellent food, nice public baths, lovely view from the room
Review 8:Hiogiso is still the best place we stayed in Japan, loaction by the ocean, nice ofuro, great food and friendly owner :-)
Review 9:EXCELENT PLACE
Review 10:There should be window blind
Review 11:Excellent for relaxation and getaway
Review 12:This Ryokan is literally on the waters edge in a quiet bay - for those who want to experience something unique in Japan this is authentic and exceptional. Westerners be aware this is traditional - communal bathing and futons aren't for everyone. For those willing to give it a try this is fabulous!
Review 13:Nothing, it was more than what we expected
Review 14:Friendliness and kindness of owners and staff
