Shōhōen - Daisen

It is necessary to understand in advance that it is difficult to obtain the same level of facilities as a general inn or hotel because it is a nationally registered tangible cultural property, but I would like to highly evaluate it in all respects. The meal was kaiseki for dinner and a Japanese set meal for breakfast. The dinner was quite voluminous. I prefer light taste, but this point is also regional, and the proprietress also added that it is "deeply seasoned", and I understand that it is served with a local taste. rice field. Most of the ingredients are thought to be eaten in this inland area. For example, I was impressed that the herring, which was one of the few marine products, came out in salted koji. I think the taste and content are perfect. Most of the breakfast was local and it was very delicious. There are two types of baths, an indoor bath and a private outdoor bath, and the outdoor bath is in a separate building. It was raining on the day of my stay, so I decided to put on my umbrella. It would be nice to have a covered corridor, but you can also understand the difficulty of modifying the main building of a cultural property. The quality of the spring is a rare iodine spring, and it is a little cloudy. I thought it would be nice if there was a washroom in the outdoor bath as well. The building retains a strong remnant of the time when it was a shoya, and on the first floor, the armor and set that were handed down to the house were shown, and I felt that the museum-like aspect was also large. (Although a separate museum has been opened) I stayed in a room with 10 tatami mats, but the toilet and washbasin are shared, and there is no TV. I think that some people evaluate these points negatively, but considering that they were originally not facilities as an inn in a shoya mansion and that they are designated as cultural properties, I thought that they should be excluded from the evaluation. On the other hand, it seems that the solvable part has been solved, such as considering that there are few outlets in the room or having an extension cord. The other thing I'm curious about is that the bookshelf in the discourse space hasn't been used for a long time, and spider webs and dust have accumulated. However, the content was very satisfying overall. I would love to use it again if I have the opportunity.

Salty, iron smell, green? Reddish brown? Hot water. The feeling that the hot springs are working is amazing. It warms your body and makes your skin feel smooth and silky. Rice is also from Akita. It's not expensive, but it was a fascinating dish! There are many quaint buildings to see. The room is necessary and sufficient. You can hear the noise completely, so it seems better to understand that point.

Good spring quality, good food. It was an irresistible inn for us who love secret hot springs. It seems to be proud of the iodine spring, but I think that it is almost the sodium chloride factor that warms the body and makes the skin smooth. The food is mainly local cuisine, but it was a very elegant and wonderful dish because it is an inn run by a local celebrity. However, since it is a traditional building, it is quite cold in winter. The room must be heated and heated, and it is convenient to have a small humidifier or props. Since there is no TV, it seems to be unfortunate for those who expected hotel-like service. After all it is an inn for core hot spring fans.
