Top 10 Onsen Ryokan 2018: Tokyo suburbs Edition >>

 

 

Which luxury onsen ryokans (hot spring hotel) are popular in Hakone? Which onsen (hot spring resort) should I go to near Tokyo Narita Airport ? Which accommodations with private onsen are recommended between Tokyo and Shizuoka?

When you are considering which onsen ryokan to stay at (which is an experience unique to Japan) as you plan your visit to Japan, have you ever met with questions such as wanting to know the recommended ryokans, or wanting to try out a different ryokan after staying at one previously?

We have decided to answer these questions you may have by announcing the Top 10 most booked onsen ryokans in 2017 through our website.

Nine onsen ryokans from Mt. Fuji Lake Kawaguchi and Hakone are included this time round.
We would be happy if these information would prove to be of help to you when you make a reservation at a ryokan. Please use this resource under “Popular Ryokan Collection” in Japan.
There are plenty of ryokans that provide outdoor onsen (Rotenburo) and hot spring baths that can be booked for couples and families (Kashikiri-buro), so you can enjoy a “couple onsen” or “family friendly onsen” as you relax in the bath.
