    Japanese-Style Quadruple Room with Open Air Bath, scenic rooftop terrace, traditional onsen tub

    The view from the open-air bath is disappointing, blocked by nearby roofs!!! The dinner experience could greatly benefit from more flavor and creativity, especially for the price!!! The public onsen needs clearer signage to avoid confusion!!!

    The Hotel New Wakasa features beautifully renovated Japanese-style rooms adorned with tasteful decoration, making it feel both cozy and elegant. The thoughtful layout and serene atmosphere created a calming experience that was easy for me to navigate.

    Check-in time could be earlier for better convenience.

    breakfast presentation
    closed private bath
    poor communication

    Incredible breakfast with beautiful presentation.

    I was really disappointed when I booked the Ryokan. I specifically chose it for the private bath, only to find it closed for maintenance upon arrival. It felt like a major downgrade compared to my previous stay elsewhere for less money, with bigger rooms and better facilities. I simply wish they had warned me about the bath situation beforehand.

    great location

    our stay at new wakasa was fantastic. we loved the japanese-style triple room, and the free upgrade was a nice surprise. the staff was super friendly and helpful, especially when they offered us hot towels and sweet tea after a long day out. the breakfast was decent, and the location was great, just a short walk from lots of good food options.

    would recommend.

    Serene beautiful hotel with top quality service and amenities

    Our stay was nothing short of spectacular! Every detail, from the stunning private bathroom to the exquisite kaiseki dinner, left us in awe. The attentive staff provided great recommendations for local attractions, while the rooftop terrace offered a gorgeous view at sunset. Truly a peaceful oasis after days of exploration!

    mini onsen
    rooftop breakfast

    Our stay at Hotel New Wakasa was absolutely delightful. The Japanese-style room was spacious and cozy, with a unique mini onsen on the balcony that provided a wonderfully relaxing experience. Every evening, we were greeted with hot towels and yuzu tea, adding a lovely touch to our experience. The rooftop breakfast served a variety of delicious items, beautifully presented, and enjoyed with a serene view.

    None at all. every aspect exceeded expectations.

    delicious breakfast
    earlier check-in

    We truly enjoyed our stay, especially the private onsen with the amazing mountain view and the delicious Japanese breakfast that was beautifully presented. The outdoor bath and spa were perfect for relaxation after a long day exploring. If I had to nitpick, I would have preferred an earlier check-in time. 😊

    private onsen
    mountain views
    small bathroom
    limited seating
    noisy location

    The private onsen tub on the balcony provided an incredibly relaxing experience, especially after exploring the local sights. The room was beautifully decorated with stunning mountain views that enhanced the tranquility of our stay. Breakfast was extensive and delicious, featuring homemade dishes that were both filling and visually appealing. That said, the bathroom was quite small, and the living room lacked adequate seating options. Furthermore, the location, while good, could be a bit noisy at peak times.
