We ended our trip in Japan here a few weeks ago. We were told to experience the traditional Ryokan experience before we left and are very happy we did. We found Shiki-tei to be very tidy and clean, we both slept very well as it was so quiet. The staff we a

“It's been a long time since I've been on a three-generation family vacation.”
This time we used the "ImaNara" coupon. My parents are getting older, and I wanted my children and grandchildren to have the experience of staying at a good ryokan, so I took the plunge and visited Shikitei. I was very satisfied with the experience, from the green tea at check-in, to the breakfast and dinner, to the bath, and even the rice balls for the evening meal. Above all, my parents were very happy, which made me happy too. I would like to stay with you again someday. Thank you very much.
