Ryokans in Kochi Prefecture

"Our 3-night stay at Jyoseikan was comfortable and pleasant. The staff was extremely polite and responsive to all our inquiries and requests. Our room was traditional Japanese style, a bit dated but well maintained. The breakfast buffet had a wonderful variety of Japanese and Western style dishes, all very delicious. Would definitely recommend Jyoseikan to anyone and would stay here again on future trips."

"A lovely old world japanese hotel with a large onsen attached. Helpful staff and a great location above the Oboke river gorge"

"Totally unique by location and geography "

"Very nice and comfortable hotel with very delicious Japanese Kaiseki food 🍱 menu and good onzen bath facility. Staff is always warm and friendly "

"Staff were very helpful though English is spoken minimally. Rooms were clean and comfortable though corridor was dark and dated. "

"Great hotel with hot spring ! However there is no shower or bath in the room (only toilet) so you need to shower at the public hot spring, which closes at midnight…."

"Quiet and comfortable, had a great view of the sea. Staff was friendly and helpful."

"のんびり過ごせて清潔で良かったです！ 夜泣き担担麺もあって朝もバイキング！ 子供がいたけど、座敷にしてくださりテーブル席は椅子もありお風呂にも子供の椅子やお風呂があり子連れにはオススメかと思いました！"

"WAS OK CLOSE TO TRAM BUSES RAIL ETC FRIENDLY HOSPITABLE WILL RETURN"

"A small family-run guest house in Kami, which is a small town with few shops and restaurants. The onsen was located just off the main road thus considered convenient (for self drive). All guest rooms (with Japanese tatami) were located upstairs with narrow corridor, thus we couldn't bring luggage up but pack some overnight stuff instead. Luckily parking was just outside complex, so we could retrieve things as often as we like. We chose this Onsen as back up because our original booking was...

"Room was huge and comfortable with a great sitting area and fantastic view. Dinner was absolutely wonderful. "

"Good customer service"

"This is an excellent ryokan owned by a family, with clean and neat japanese style en-suite and onsen. It locates at the top of a small hill overlooking the supreme zekkei of the Shimanto River. The owner and the staffs are very hospitable, we wish to visit again in the future, perhaps in a different season. Thank you very much and we had a wonderful stay."

"The worst place I have ever stayed in Japan"

"Loved my stay here. The location was great, just a short walk to the main vine bridge in Iya Valley. But it's also secluded enough to really feel the remoteness of Iya Valley. My room was wonderful, very well appointed and clean. The high point was the staff. They were all wonderful and kind, and went above and beyond during my stay. They even drove me to the bus stop in the morning so that I wouldn't have to walk with my suitcase. I would absolutely stay here again."

"Relaxing stay in a beautiful location.... absolutely worth the drive"

"気さくな女将さんが家族を迎えるような感じでした。 浴場は贅沢を言わなければ入れます。が、 備品は一切ありません。ティッシュペーパーさえ無いのは論外でした。"

"There is nothing unique about this Hotel. The owner has to renovate this establishment. It’s not a place for humans. It’s totally runned down. The car bets are stained all over the place. The lobby is dirty, the sofas are stained, you cannot sit on them. In the rooms the curtains are stained, torn, no blinds. The condition of every furniture is bad, needs fixing or get new. The food is served in a old people home dyining room. Looks like the fifties, or a senatorium in the former USSR. The food...
