Ryokans in Kochi Prefecture

"It was a quiet and serene place at the end of the road, by the sea with the ocean waves moving to shore below, and the sounds of a busy and noisy society far away. You could even see the stars and planets at night in the darkness."

"Good customer service"

"The food was the highlight of my stay here - sensational dinner. The staff were very kind and their utmost to help, despite limited English. The property is a little tired, could do with an upgrade. Nice location, right by the sea"

"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...

"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."

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...
