A centuries-old atmosphere deep in Yunishigawa — guests enter to a drum ceremony and cross a surreal wooden bridge to dinner — Honke Bankyu offers superb views from its baths and seasonal local-ingredient dinners. The antique-house experience earns best-ever ratings from most, yet one guest reports uninterested staff and no luggage help over many stairs, and the drive from Tokyo runs long.
