Traditional Ryokan with Onsen

mekyi · (#1 (**permalink**))

Hey,
I'm going to Japan in 4 weeks with my boyfriend and we want to have a really nice experience at a traditional ryokan. We would love to find one with beautiful views of snow or mountains or something like that so we can sit in an onsen and enjoy the scenery. As well, we would also like a ryokan that has traditional meals provided.
We will only be in Japan for 9 days but are planning to visit Osaka, Kyoto, Tokyo and possibly Hakone.
We are happy to spend a most Y30,000 each.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

out of the places you listed, hakone would probably be your best bet. just make sure you look for an outside onsen.

try the Kinosaki Onsen,
Hotspring town KINOSAKI ONSEN

or arima onsen
Arima Hot Springs

rather than osaka,try the onsen in Hyogo
