Review: Best place we stayed in Japan
The hosts are so nice and we really enjoyed our separate annex in Chikatsuyu. Meals were very tasty and prepared with much care and we enjoyed them all together which made for nice conversation. Highly recommended!

Review: Our favourite stay of our whole Japan trip
This was the warmest welcome and most comfortable stay we could have imagined. Naomi and Yasauyuki offered us drinks and snacks on arrival, provided delicious dinner, breakfast and lunch box, showed us the sights in the village to explore and took us to see the fireflies at night; all with big smiles. It was wonderful sat around their table in the evening talking to them and other travellers. Bed was really comfortable and facilities clean and easy to use. Great stop on Kumano Kodo. We were sad to say goodbye so soon!!

Review: One place I’ll keep with me forever
Staying at Naomi and her husband’s cozy hut was such a magical experience. Some of the favorites are:
They were perfect hosts, Naomi made sure to ask me where I planned to walk on the day after and gave me precise indications on how to get there (with hand-drawn charts, tea, and homemade cookies).
The common room has an enormous table where all the guests eat together, an ideal way to make some conversation (unlike many other places where the tables were smaller and separate). I ended up having an insightful three-hour conversation with the hosts and other guests about our respective countries.
The place was spotless, the food delicious and the view over the rest of the village heals the soul. I was hesitant to leave the next day. Thank you for hosting me, I hope to see you again!

Very welcoming and knowledgeable hostess, who answered our questions about the area and Japan. It was lovely to have this direct contact. Meals were ver good! Pleasant way to meet other travellers around a shared table. Our room did not have solid door, so when the hall light came on at night, it was very noticeable in our room.

Review: Cozy
Naomi and her husband are wonderful persons. The room was very nice and mixed ryokan with modernity. The meal was very good (could be more caloric for hikers). Very satisfied.

Our room was very comfortable. Naomi and her husband were very welcoming and hospitable and very open to discussing anything we had questions about. The dinner, breakfast and packed lunch were sensational. Would definitely recommend

Review: Lovely hosts
The couple that runs Guesthouse SORA are just lovely people - I really felt welcomed and taken care of. They were interesting to talk to and very informative about the Kumano Kodo.
