"The staff of Gora Kansuiro is a highlight of this ryokan. Everyone showed above and beyond hospitality, from the moment we even stepped into the parking lot! The location, tucked in the green woods with gardens and walking paths surrounding it, is perfect - just a short walk from Gora station (also note: the switchback train up the mountain to Gora station is a wonderful unique experience all on its own). We loved the expansive Sakura room up some stairs, with its beautiful sun porch looking out to the woods and ridgeline, and its private constant-recirc hot springs tub room. Every night the staff made up the futons for us while we feasted kanseki-style in the dining room (so. much. food. - unique all around, and some very tasty things though of course not every single dish/morsel is to everyone’s taste). Not very used to floor-sleeping anymore, so I did find that I needed some extra padding on my futon to get thru the night ok, and not have sore joints in the morning. Overall, Gora Konsuiro was comfortable and so memorable - we loved the sense of deep tradition and history throughout."
