Traditionalists opt for a classic tatami room, complete with a futon on the floor for sleeping. Western-oriented guests sleep on beds with a mattress and box spring off the floor.
On the fourth floor, our luxe Western-style suite featured a living room with white leather furniture, a fireplace, and a wet bar. The view outside revealed a stream of rushing water alongside the inn.
The bathroom has the largest shower we'd seen in Japan, a walk-in unit complete with both a handheld spray and a wide rainwater head. Adjacent was a standard porcelain tub.
The room contained a 21-inch Panasonic TV, but English-speaking channels were not available. An attached DVD player and Bose radio (Enya was playing when we entered) were furnished. Although there was no wi-fi in the room, it was available (along with an iMac with a Japanese keyboard) in the business center.
