レトロな雰囲気が旅行気分を盛り上げてくれ、綺麗な中庭や丁寧な接客にすごく満足しました! 立地も、弘前城の近くで観光もしやすく目の前にバス停もあるので交通の便も良いです。 また来年、桜のシーズンにお世話になろうと思います!

愉快的體驗

第一次入住和室風旅館, 預訂了共公浴室的房間. 房間被安排在一樓, 旁邊就是廁所, 走廊盡頭也有洗手設備, 所以很方便.榻榻米很舒服, 暖風機也很和暖. Host 很helpful, 會先預備一壺熱水, 喝完問他再拿就可以. 距離弘前城外城河大概5分鐘.

創業明治12年で、建物そのものに歴史も感じますし、城下町弘前の歴史を感じられる旅館です。 弘前の歴史をもっともっと知りたくなりました。 弘前公園からも近く、桜まつりの時期もとても便利で良いと思います。

登録有形文化財に指定されている歴史ある古い建物だけれど、塵一つなく床も柱もピカピカに光っていて清潔な旅館でした。掛け軸・壺・螺鈿の置物・ひな人形・柱時計・屏風・太鼓橋など、博物館の中にいるようでした。客室の湯呑も朝食の器も、一つ一つが品のある良いものでした。焼きたてのお魚が付いた朝ご飯、美味しかったです。ご主人も奥さんもスタッフの方々も、温かい笑顔で迎えてくださって、とても豊かな時間を過ごすことができました。ありがとうございました。

Warm and Welcoming Ryokan

We had a thoroughly relaxing overnight stay at Ishiba Ryokan. The owners’ hospitality exceeded expectation, even driving us to a local restaurant. The on-site onsen was soothing and the traditional beds comfortable. It was a wonderful experience.
