We stayed here for one night on a half-board package, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The staff were exceptionally helpful when we realised we had left a bag at our previous destination. They went above and beyond to help us arrange a plan to retrieve it, which we greatly appreciated.
The service was outstanding, the room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the location was perfect—within walking distance of the JR station and conveniently situated right behind one of the public onsen facilities.
The meals were both delicious and generous in portion size. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would not hesitate to return on our next visit. Highly recommended!

The Ryokan is on the main street of Kinosaki -onsen, with great view and easy access to all the public bathhouses. The customer services were really good. They also provide good dinner and breakfast there. And I appreciated that they allowed me to store my luggages even after checkout.

This was a beautiful traditional ryokan in Kinosakicho, which had lovely serene rooms and granted access to seven of the nearby Onsen locations as part of the booking. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the dinners especially were excellent (one featured a crab course and another featured Shabu-Shabu). Truly appreciate their kindness and would gladly stay there again.

We stayed for one night while visiting Kinosaki Onsen. The staff was very pleasant, the room was nice and clean, and the food served for breakfast and dinner was very good. There’s a small public bath which was very clean and nice, and was always empty when I went in so it was wonderful. Very quaint, traditional Japanese ryokan.

Traditional Japanese onsen house with breakfast and Kaiseki dinner option. The house is situated at corner of street, right behind 1 of onsen spot. Breakfast & dinner are delicious and ladies who served meals in dining are friendly. It’s good getaway from busy city life.

Tsukimotoya Ryokan provided a memorable and authentic ryokan experience for our family. Only a few minutes from the main onsen baths (yanagiyu, ichinoyu, goshonoyu, konouyu and jizoyu). The Kaiseki breakfast and dinner were amazing and so delicious. The warm hospitality provided to us felt like we were staying with family instead of at a public ryokan. Very reasonably priced and highly recommended.

A very down to earth, comfortable, and amazing ryokan with exceedingly kind and helpful staff who want to help you have the best time. We managed to do all 7 onsen over 2 nights and on the last morning they looked after our bags and lent us towels to do one last round.
This isn’t the most flash ryokan like you see in rich influencers videos, but if you want an authentic stay that’s a comfy place to call home for a couple nights with great food and staff, this is a guaranteed winner.

Our stay at Tsukimotoya Ryokan was so lovely. The staff was extremely kind and welcoming. The dinner and breakfast was remarkable and very delicious. The ryokan is nestled in a quiet street but very conveniently located to many of the town’s onsen. The room was comfortable and spacious. Everything was kindly set out for us to enjoy the onsen and they provided yukata to stroll around town. My husband and I really enjoyed our visit, would recommend Tsukimotoya Ryokan to anyone looking for a relaxing trip.

My husband and I had a pleasant one night stay at this ryokan! Staff are very courteous and welcoming. We were greeted with a welcome tea and orientation to the room, and onsen pass. Location is within walking distance to the train station and a few of the onsens nearby. There are no showers in the room, as all onsens have showers.
We got the kaiseki dinner and breakfast service, and were served by the lovely older ladies who were very attentive. Felt welcome and would recommend to any guests coming to Kinosaki!

We were warmly welcomed into this traditional ryokan where were were shown to our room and served tea. Towels, bags and Onsen passes were provided with explanations of where the Onsens were and how to properly use them. Dinner was an amazing spread of a traditional seafood kaiseki meal. Breakfast was a way out of our Canadian norm as it was a lot of fish rice and egg but are always up for new experiences.
Overall we were very pleased with our experience and would definitely visit again.

Good location
Place is very convenient to restaurants and onsens.
On our last day, when we returned to our room at 8.30am after breakfast, the futon beds were already stored away. Checkout time was 10am. We had to sit on the floor in the meantime. We were still paying guests and should not be subject to such discomfort in their eagerness to clean the room early.
