Experience of the stay
The Ryokan Tokyo YUGAWARA featured a location surrounded by hot springs and nature.
The building was impressive, resembling a blend of old and new, as if an old inn had been renovated.
The room was spacious, with a YogiBo as shown in the photos, allowing for relaxation.
I forgot to reserve dinner, but I was able to order from a limited menu at check-in, enjoying a set meal and craft beer.
There was nothing around, so if it weren’t for that set meal, it would have been a struggle to find dinner.
Experiences during the trip
At a place called 'Yugawara Plum Grove' that can be reached by bus from Yugawara Station, the 'Plum Banquet' was held from February to March where you could see plum blossoms.
It was hard to believe the number of tourists, and we were packed into the bus to the plum grove.
Since it was near the end of the season, the plum blossoms felt less vibrant, but I enjoyed it anyway.
I also enjoyed a large cedar tree that can be reached on foot from Yugawara Station.
