What makes the experience of a ryokan extremely intimate and special, is that connection with the Nakai-San who takes care of you during your stay.
Traditionally, when you stay at a ryokan, you are taken care of privately at your guestroom where you can enjoy your Dinner and Breakfast completely relaxed. This is the best way to enjoy an authentic ryokan stay with its main characteristic KATA(形、型), meaning both “flow” and “form”.
