As authentic as it can get if you're after a genuine Japanese experience in Australia. Lovely Japanese staff that showed true omotenashi hospitality. Rooms come with an ofuro bath overlooking your own private Japanese garden - what a bliss!

The extras seem to be overpriced (e.g. the bathing experience). Also, it got quite dark after 8pm and it was difficult to find the way back to the room after the bathing. It would be nice if someone could accompany the guests back.

Breakfast and Saturday evening dining were tradional Japanese. The chefs are amazing and food something to savour. I have a need for gluten free which was handled efficiently and without any bother. Yoga, Massage and tradional bathing add to this unique experience

I love that I have my own patio with a zen garden. It was so relaxing to sit and read, while listening to the sound of tinkling music.

The walk from the carpark to the reception via gravel and stone pathway was rather challenging for my wheeled luggage.

A fantastic location with great rooms and staff that strive to give excellent service. The food was absolutely brilliant! I can understand why it is so difficult to find a room.
