Wonderful ryokan that is extremely value for money. Location was a short walk from Tottori Station, and close to a lot of good food (the best ones all require reservation, though). Great private / family bath, beautiful garden, spacious room. They also managed to book a superb masseur for me (4000yen for 40min).

This is a traditional ryokan, so shower facilities are communal and colocated with the onsen facilities (i.e. you may need to shower with strangers close by). There is a private family bath available, though you might have to queue/wait for it.

The place is within walking distance from the train station. There are restaurants within a 5 minute walk away. There is also a mini-mart nearby which sells fruits and bento sets, if you want to save on meals. There is a lovely garden from which can be seen from the room. The room is very big, with comfortable beds and a sitting area to drink your tea while looking outside the window. If you choose to have their breakfast, it is a colourful Japanese-style breakfast. For us, the best part of this place is the use of the private onsen family bath. Anytime from 4pm to 8.30am, if no one is using it, the guests can use it as many times as they want during their stay. No fear of taking a bath in front of strangers. The bath is modern and yet traditional, very clean and well-maintain. We could not speak Japanese and had to use Google translate a few times. The staff responded wonderfully to us.

The signage in front of the building is in Japanese. We walked past it and had to retrace our steps when trying to locate it. If your room in on the second level, you will have to climb a flight of stairs. This will not be easy when you check out if you have large luggage.

Beautiful ryokan, everything feels new. We really enjoyed the family bath and its little garden view. Easy to walk with our luggage from the train station, about 7 minutes. Soft comfortable beds (for the western bed), and tea set up in the room. The staff are so eager to help with anything you need through the translation machines, and helped us call a restaurant in town to make a dinner reservation.

Super friendly and highly professional staff. Breakfast and Dinner were well-prepared and very delicious. The Onsen felt so comforting after a long winter day. Overall the Ryokan feels like "home" so we would definitely like to return someday. Thank you for the experience!

The owners spoke great english and made an effort to engage with me on multiple occasions. Rooms were spacious and comfortable with a very nice view of their inner gardens. There was a private onsen as well as public ones which would be great for families traveling with kids, couples or travellers with tattoos.

Easy walking from JR Tottori Station, and also many dining choices nearby. I went to udon noodle place perfect for a chilly night. I really loved a Japanese breakfast served in a dining room setting.

Just a minor thing. Their towels are a bit tiny and thin for my liking.

Good location, close to the station. Very kind staff, they also speak a bit of English which is very helpful. The public bath is great with a private option. Would also recommend the Japanse breakfast which was very good!

The location is only a short walk from the station. The staff were excellent and very accommodating. The onsen is a really nice way to finish a day of sightseeing. The Japanese breakfast was amazing.

So surprised to find such a nice traditional Japanese Onsen hotel in Tottori. Friendly staff and delicious breakfast. Stayed in a few onsen hotels during this trip and this one offers great amenities and service.

Great ryokan experience just a few mins walking distance from the station. Very clean and spacious room. The onsen is very nice. Friendly staff.

Check-in at 4pm and check-out at 10am are unusual even for Japanese standards.
