Family hotels and homes in Toyooka

Staying at Morizuya was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. This cozy, family-run ryokan radiates warmth and hospitality. Manager Hachisuka and his family do everything they can to make you feel at home, and our stay truly exceeded expectations. The ryokan is charming and traditional. We stayed in a spacious, comfortable tatami room with beautiful décor and a view of a peaceful garden. The room included a private toilet and sink, while bathing is done in their private onsen (yes, private — no need to bathe with others if that makes you uncomfortable). Morizuya provides yukata for men and women, sandals, bags, towels, and an onsen pass for the town’s seven public baths. Women can also choose a kimono for going out around town and shopping, while men can (and should!) relax in their yukata for this same purpose. I especially want to highlight how Manager Hachisuka truly went above and beyond. He’s not only an excellent photographer — taking beautiful photos of my fiancée and me among the cherry blossoms and guiding us to great photo spots — but also incredibly kind and attentive. He personally helped us with our schedule and drove us to the station early in the morning to ensure we caught our train on time. That level of care is something we’ll never forget. If you’re unsure where to stay, I strongly recommend Morizuya. We left with beautiful and unforgettable memories of this warm and authentic experience in Kinosaki. A few quick tips about the bath: There are two onsen inside the inn. From 7 AM to 3 PM, they’re public (men/women separated). From 3 PM to 11 PM they become private — no reservation needed. If the door’s unlocked, it’s available. Go in, lock the door behind you and enjoy. You’re welcome to bathe with your family or partner. Be sure to shower and clean yourself before entering the bath. Walking around town in your yukata(or kimono) is part of the charm, so don’t be shy — it’s all part of the experience.

My stay was fantastic - the hosts offered to pick me up from the train station, and also drove me to and from the town centre when I wanted to visit the local onsen. I spent the evening getting to know the hosts and the other travellers around the fireplace. The share room was really comfortable as well. Thank you !

The staff was mega friendly and helpful. Everything felt new and fresh. The breakfast was amazing!

We had a very pleasant stay. The staff were very kind and considerate. The food was delicious. We highly recommend staying here

Our stay at Asagiriso was beautiful. The place is nice and very convenient.

Extremely good service, very beautiful lobby and our japanese styled room was both fancy and cosy. Dinner served to room was great experience and delicious and server was helpful guiding us with the food. Private onsen was highlight of our stay. Be sure to take time to stroll around the beautiful town of Kinosaki.

Great location, friendly and attentive staff and excellent meals. A wonderful stay.

Onsen, the atmosphere, is soo comfort and chill

For our first trip to Japan we loved the clean quiet location of the hotel and the staff were amazing in helping us navigate the new surroundings. The staff were always friendly and helpful.
