Lovely service. It is very traditional, unique food so may not be to everyone's taste. Due to having food in room, the room did smell for the rest of the stay. Cute village, easy to get to from train.

Absolutely wonderful place to stop on the way to Koyasan. I will admit when I showed up at the inn I was later than expected, had walked many miles, and was in quite a bad mood. The welcome I received changed all of that. They took me straight to my room and gave me tea and treated me like I was part of their family. I had the best meal of my time in Japan at this inn. The onsen was the perfect temperature and felt so good on my sore muscles. If you are maki my the journey to Koyasan this inn is a fantastic place to stop. The town is full of history and the staff were so kind to me even though I was dirty and sweaty and tired. I left feeling clean and refreshed!

Beautiful property with delicious food and an incredibly helpful and friendly staff! One of the staff members even saw us rummaging through a bowl of flags for their "Where are you from" map and we casually mentioned that we couldn't find our country but it was alright, then left for a little walk around the property. When we came back, the staff member had printed it out for us! Little details like that show the staff pay attention and go beyond what is required to help their guests. Would absolutely stay again. Thank you!

We stayed at the private Onsen room in the little house off the main building, and it felt very authentic. Service was superb Gary was very helpful and sent us on a beautiful walk the next day. The traditional Japanese meals were an experience on their own, but the private Onsen, and the beautiful grounds were the highlight of our stay.

Wonderful place to stay, so authentic, peaceful, back in time. The staff is extremely kind, the food is refined and delicious. The Onsen (hot baths) is divine. The property and surroundings are beautiful and steps away form the train station. I absolutely recommend this stay while in Japan, it will be a memorable souvenir.

This was our first trip to Japan, ever, so we wanted to experience authentic and traditional Japanese hospitality, and what an amazing surprise we got. We rented the suite, which is the annex. You basically get an entire traditional japanese house, with a private onsen, all for yourself. From the moment you arrive to the ryokan, you get the warmest welcome you can imagine. You are taken to your guest house and introduced to everything around a house. They provide you with Yukatas so you can feel comfortable. For dinner, they come and serve you like a 5 or 6 course meal (I can't remember exactly how much they were), fully authentic seasonal japanese food. Once you are done, they come pick up the food from your dining room, and set up the futons were you will be sleeping, really comfortable futons. By morning, they come and serve the breakfast and store the futons. Did I mentioned the amazing private onsen all for yourselves? What an amazing experience onsens are. Now I understand why it is so embedded in Japanese culture. The only thing I regret is not staying another night, since we had a very tight Japan schedule. But if you ever go to Japan, at least once stay in a traditional Ryokan to enjoy tradition. And I cannot emphasize how great a decision would it be to choose Nanten-en. And if you can afford the suite, go for it. It is something you need to experience once in a lifetime at least.

Zen like stay at Amami Onsen Nanten-en
Enjoyed our stay at Amami Onsen Nantes-en. Convenient location right next to train station. Friendly, professional staff. Large, traditional Japanese room with comfortable sitting area overlooking lovely garden. Dinner in room was delicious, server top notch. Breakfast in main dining room was also excellent. Small onsen overlooking forest very peaceful. If you’re uncomfortable being naked in a large hot tub environment with strangers this may not be for you. I also had a restless night sleeping on the futon, but my wife slept fine. One night was enough for me but I’m glad we got to experience a traditional Japanese ryokan.
