Seikiro Ryokan Historical Museum Hotel

We had a beautiful time at Seikiro Ryokan. Hospitality and facilities were incredible! Our breakfasts were tasty and filling and our dinner was beautifully presented. We had a private toilet and used the ryokan's onsen to wash and soak (a relaxing experience). Our room had a lovely view of the ryokan garden and Shimasaki Park. Our futons were comfortable and our tatami room had everything we needed for our stay. The train station is a 10 minute walk away, from which we could catch local trains and buses to Amanohashidate (and the train to and from Kyoto). The ryokan is a beautiful building with so much history, character and charm and was very clean and well maintained. I especially loved the little touches that come from generations of experience with the building and hosting guests, like where furniture is placed to best appreciate the view.

Seikiro is a remarkable place--a historic time capsule of a ryokan. Rooms and common areas are dated, but in a comfortable way. The building dates back to around 1900 in places, and other areas were added about twenty years later. Some of the fixtures and fittings are original, and some are newer, but overall it's a time capsule. Dinner and breakfasts they prepared and served to me to were lovely, full of traditional Japanese dishes, and the staff explained each one carefully. I can tell how much loving care the family who runs it puts into it. The rooms were large and beautifully decorated, and the hotel was very quiet.

Historical building near Amanohashidate and Ine. This is a very old building with all the pros and cons that comes with it. The staff was welcoming. Unfortunately, I didn't get to experience the onsen but it looked welcoming. The room was massive and comfortable. There are plenty of restaurants nearby to choose from. The museum part was very interesting.

Nice spot near the beach and close to shops and some restaurants. Walkable to Amanohashidate about 25mins or 1 stop on train. Beautiful old building and polite staff!

It was my first time in a ryokan and I loved to stay there. Sadly it was only for one night. Since the building is old the sanitaries are old fashioned as well, but this adds to the charme of the ryokan in my opinion. The garden view was beautiful and the onsen was very relaxing. The elderly lady at the reception was extraordinarily kind. I can highly recommend staying there, I came here after my trip to Amanohashidate, it is only one station away by train.
