This was the most memorable stay on my Japan trip. The host was very lovely and welcoming. The chef prepared maybe the best vegan meals I’ve had on this trip. And, of course, the tea served with meals is excellent! I even tried the hot tea bath that was available each night. Also, the host has lived in the US so you don’t need to worry about a language barrier. I didn’t get to do the tea tours that were offered because I’d already booked one with Obubu Tea Farms, but will definitely take them up on the offer next time. If I’m ever back in the area, I will stay again!

Ryokan Seishounagon has mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking, set in Tsu, 27 km from Suzuka Circuit.

The room was huge, We were able to spread out quite comfortably and had ample space to organize our luggage. The room also had a small balcony that overlooked a river that had cherry blossom trees in bloom along it. Overall it was a very relaxing atmosphere. We had the breakfast included option and I was quite surprised at the portion size served. There were a couple days I couldn't finish it (though I don't usually have breakfast so my appetite might be a little small) but my partner seemed satisfied. Every morning was a different breakfast for us, which we appreciated. It was mainly Japanese style food with some Western touches. This ryokan is deep in the country in a small, quiet area. There are three or four onsens within walking distance, as well as a small hike with a view of the bay in the distance. There is a community center/onsen newly built about a 10 minute walk away with nice facilities and extremely cheap E-Bike rental. We had a lot of fun biking around the full bloom cherry blossom trees and small residential streets. I really enjoyed the onsen water here as well. It almost feels slippery and your skin and hair feel super smooth after bathing.

Located in Iga, within 45 km of Suzuka Circuit and 49 km of Nara Station, Hill Hotel Sunpia Iga provides free WiFi.

The breakfast was excellent, as was the dinner we had in the evening. The room was much better than the ones we had so far in Japan, maybe because it had two single beds, with plenty of room in between. The staff was very helpful, and the bonus hot spring very enjoyable.

We loved everything about Ume. The beautiful setting, the design, the kindness of the staff and the most incredible meals. We had the smallest room and it was great; nicer than the photos suggest. Lovely amenities and small details in the room. But the reason to come is the food. We adored the dinner - a traditional Japanese multi course meal but very modern and clean and light. The Japanese breakfast was also divine. We would love to come back and stay in the biggest room next time.

Yukie and Kevin were excellent hosts and Yukie’s breakfasts were an unexpected delight. The house is set deep in exquisite countryside, surrounded by wooded hills. We visited Kyoto, both by train and by car, and also saw a local temple and tea plantation. Our hosts and other people in the small village couldn’t have been more helpful when we had some problems - they ensured we were able to continue with our trip. We would love to come again one day.

This is a superb and extremely spacious property with a beautiful enclosed garden and outstanding facilities. The area would be tricky to reach without a car and doesn't itself have particular attractions, but is a wonderful place to base yourself to explore Nara and the surrounding landscape. We had an exceptional stay.

The house is beautiful, the host is very kind and considerate and the breakfast was amazing (and very filling, don’t snack too much the night before).

Mari is a great host and goes out of her way to treat you well and give you a good experience. The room itself was very spacious and comfortable. I got to go to a couple of Mari's farms early in the morning which was beautiful, and also a local onsen. Her farms are organic, and you should be able to try the produce if you have dinner or breakfast there! When I told Mari about my plans for the next day, she even organised with some of her volunteers who were interested in going to the same place to go with me and drive me there, which was really kind and helpful. The surrounding area is peaceful and I really enjoyed it as a quick getaway from the city.
