During their journey across Japan, our guest from London stopped by The RYOKAN O before continuing on to Kyoto and Okinawa. With eyes sparkling in anticipation, they spoke of their upcoming diving adventure in Okinawa’s crystal-clear waters.

For travelers who, like them, love to immerse themselves in rich natural environments, Nakatsugawa offers its own kind of wonder — green mountains, clear rivers, and a gentle pace that soothes the heart. Seeing their smile as they enjoyed the calm here reminded us once again why this place is so special.

We look forward to welcoming many more nature lovers from all over the world to experience Nakatsugawa’s beauty.

Welcome to The RYOKAN O, a global accommodation located in Nakatsugawa.
Currently, The RYOKAN O offers a delightful Japanese-style breakfast, and for those who wish, we provide a special experience where guests can make their own rice balls (onigiri) and enjoy them.

This time, our featured guest from France embraced this hands-on experience with great enthusiasm. They were joyfully shaping their onigiri, savoring the warmth of freshly made rice, and pairing it with delicious miso soup.

This simple yet immersive activity gives a true taste of everyday Japanese life and is highly recommended for anyone looking to connect with the culture during their stay.

We recently welcomed guests from the Netherlands. During their extended stay, they actively engaged in conversations with other guests, brightening up the entire floor with their presence.

Watching their interactions reminded us once again that the warm atmosphere of The RYOKAN O is not created by the staff alone, but together with all of our guests.

We recently welcomed guests from Australia. When a staff member offered to take a photo of the two of them, they asked, “Is it okay if we hold the craft beer sold here in the photo?”

When we asked why, they said the character illustrated on the beer’s packaging “looks like us.”
Their unexpected answer made our staff burst into laughter.

Recently, we welcomed a guest from Spain. Initially, the conversation took place in English, but when a staff member who speaks Spanish assisted, the guest enjoyed communicating in their native language. Since it is spring, we guided them to a famous cherry blossom viewing spot.

Our facility welcomes guests from all over the world, speaking various languages. While there are moments when communication is challenging due to language barriers, when we are able to understand each other, it creates a wonderful sense of connection.
