Myoken Ishiharaso Review

Ishiharaso is in a valley alongside a river of such ferocious rapids that you might feel you're being plunged right into the drama of nature upon arrival. Most of the rooms are new and modern and overlook the river, so you can always hear the roaring rapids even when sleeping. There is a rotemburo (outdoor hot spring) for mixed bathing that sits on the edge of the river and another private outdoor hot-spring space that one can book in advance. Both are wonderful and recommended. After bathing, enjoy an incredible full-course Japanese dinner (that and breakfast are included in the rates). The ingredients in both meals are fresh and varied according to season and cooked to the highest standard. If you have the opportunity and the money, this is a must-stay.
