Everything was perfect! The hotel grounds and facilities were immaculate. The room was gorgeous and the view fantastic. The lounge was quiet and comfortable. But it was the staff that made this the best stay ever. They were professional, courteous, and super attentive to every detail. The highlight of our Japan trip

My husband and I booked 2 nights here as apart of our Japan honeymoon. Only bad part was we didn’t want to leave!! The property, the amenities, the staff, everything was exceptional. The private onsen on our balcony had a beautiful view of the mountains, yet so much privacy. We were able to dine in a private room for same of our meals, and that made it feel extra special. The food was innovative yet traditional Japanese, it was truly interesting and enjoyable. The guest lounge had amazing selections of beverages ranging from nespresso drinks to Japanese whiskeys, and fun little snacks! It rained the 2nd day we were there but honestly, it didn’t matter at all as we were able to truly enjoy the luxurious property and all it had to offer.

We had a memorable and wonderful time at Gora Karaku. The facilities are beautiful, the staff was kind and helpful, and the food was great. Odetta at the front desk was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. She is great. There was a mistake with our dinner reservation on the second night, but Keishiro Ishihara fixed it, and some. He moved reservations around and got us the table we were promised, and then he had the perfect table reserved for us the next morning for breakfast. That was very thoughtful. Our most memorable experience was Keishiro Ishihara telling us how to get from the restaurant to the water feature and showing us to the elevator and bowing to us as the door closed. And when the door was open on the other floor, he was there waiting for us. He did the same elevator trick a few more times. He even met us in the lobby as we checked out and walked us to the street. And he waived to us until we got to the train station. This was such a kind gesture, and made our experience better and more memorable.
