Luxury Ryokans in Japan

When the Japanese think of a luxury vacation, many will think of a peaceful Ryokan nestled away in the mountains; a retreat from the hectic life of the city. Unfortunately, not all people working in Japan have the opportunity to escape into the countryside that often. The benefit of this is that there are beautiful Ryokans throughout the country, from the bustling Tokyo to the far more laid-back Kyushu. The atmosphere of a Ryokan is unmistakable. From the moment you walk in, you’ll know that you are truly in a traditional style in. The beautifully minimalist design will follow you to you room, whether you choose to stay on a tradition futon-style bed or in a western style bed, the tatami flooring and décor are unmistakably that of Japanese culture. After a traditional Kaiseki meal, enjoy the star attraction of every Ryokan: the onsen or hot spring bath. Soak your troubles away in either a public or private bath and enjoy the thousands of different types of mineral waters found all across Japan, many claiming different healing properties.
