We had an exceptional three night stay. We felt welcomed and cared for even before we checked in. This was our first stay at a traditional Japanese Ryokan and felt a little apprehensive about sleeping on a futon (a thin one at that). We were able to sleep through the night and well worth the experience. We felt like the staff was extremely thoughtful, like listing an activity for the day, or giving information on how to Onsen (public bath). Definitely recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Luck you. The stuff was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean. Everything was thought-through and we were provided with many tips and explanations. It was great to have the opportunity to experience a traditional Japanese room with futon beds. We also enjoyed the breakfast with Japanese and Western food. The view into the tiny Zen Garden is amazing. There is also the option to use a microwave and Japanese snacks are provided every evening. It was great to try those. Opposite the hotel is an Onsen that can be used and we were provided with all important information on the etiquette and also a cute basket with body soap, shampoo and conditioner. Overall we had a really great stay at this Ryokan and can totally recommend it to everyone who is up for an experience that feels way more authentic Japanese and individual than a hotel.
