IMMERSE YOURSELF IN TRADITION

A ryokan stay is an immersion in Japanese culture. From the moment you arrive, you'll be enveloped in a world of gracious hospitality. Your hosts will greet you with warm smiles, guide you to your tatami-matted room, and assist you in donning a comfortable yukata.

The Ryokan Experience:

* Accommodation: Traditional rooms feature tatami mats, sliding doors, and low furniture, creating a serene and minimalist atmosphere. Restful futon beds are laid out each evening for a truly authentic experience.

* Cuisine: Indulge in the art of kaiseki, a multi-course culinary experience that showcases seasonal ingredients and exquisite presentation. Each dish is a work of art, designed to delight both the palate and the eye.

* Onsen: Unwind in the healing waters of an onsen, a Japanese hot spring bath. Known for their therapeutic properties, onsen offer a deeply relaxing and rejuvenating experience.

EXPLORE BEYOND THE RYOKAN

While the ryokan itself offers a sanctuary of tranquility, we encourage you to explore the surrounding area. Whether you're hiking through lush forests, visiting ancient temples, or strolling through charming villages, we'll help you discover the hidden gems of Japan.

At Briggate Travel, we believe in responsible tourism. We partner with ryokans that prioritize sustainability and support local communities. We strive to minimize our environmental impact and promote ethical travel practices. Explore more, live deeply.
