Harataki offers classic Japanese-style accommodation with hot spring baths. Free Wi-Fi can be used at the public area. JR Aizu-wakamatsu Station is a 15-minute drive away.

While staying at Harataki Ryokan, guests can unwind at indoor and outdoor hot spring baths. Karaoke facilities are available for a fee, and internet PCs can be used at the lobby for free.

This hotel has an absolutely spectacular location, perched on the side of a ravine. All the rooms seem to face outwards into this incredible space, so you really feel in close contact with nature. We were lucky to be there at the height of autumn leaf colour too. We had a lovely welcome from the staff when we arrived. They were exceptionally helpful re sending our larger bags onward by takkubin. The public onsen is stunning, with a wonderful outside onsen too, overhanging the waterfall and stream. We booked one of the private baths, which was fabulous, and I would highly recommend it. There are several different private onsen, so, with a bit of forward planning, you could try several different ones, even in short stay - for the more extreme onsen lovers perhaps! The restaurant was excellent. I am very glad we booked for dinner, which was a feast, and combined table service with an extensive buffet. Breakfast was delicious, buffet style. Everything about our stay was comfortable and things went very smoothly. We travelled to Aizuwakamatsu by train, and onwards to the hotel by taxi. We were only there one night, and would love to return.

Guest rooms in the ryokan are equipped with a flat-screen TV. All rooms will provide guests with a fridge.

Aizu Higashiyama Onsen Tsuki no Aka offers a hot spring bath.

The property is quite convenient for those within Aizuwakamatsu area. I came by bicycle though so I am unsure of the bus timings, prices, etc. A cab is quite pricey though for a short trip, as I had researched. The hot spring was the right temperature though, despite not having an outdoor option. A great value though.

    We stayed in the annex, in a room overlooking the Aga River. It was incredibly beautiful to see that view every day. The room was well-equipped, with comfortable futon, yukata, bathroom, fridge and onsen amenities. The large public bath and rotenburo in the main hotel were excellent.

    This is a gorgeous Japanese inn (Ryokan). The lady who runs it speaks good English and is very kind, friendly and helpful, as are the staff. The room was beautiful and I slept comfortably on my futon after a dip in the private bath. I had breakfast in the morning and it was one of the best Japanese breakfasts I’d had and so beautifully presented. The hotel is a 15 min walk from the station and therefore, within a 15 min walk there are quite a few places to eat. The owner can help you with all the recommendations of Aizu Wakamatsu too.

    A very special and traditional, relatively small and personal ryokan. Highlights are the dining rooms, where the guests sit around (on tatami) traditional fire places. The food is partly roasted over charcoal. Although basic communication in English works, some knowledge of Japanese language and culture is very helpful. If you go there during the week, you can stay for a really attractive price…

    The atmosphere and ambiance are very peaceful. This is a place to stay if you want to have a nice ryokan and onsen experience. Everything is basically straightforward. Staff is not proficient in english, but if you use google Translate, that will help. The food was great with japanese traditional breakfast and dinner. The whole experience was excellent. The onsen was also good. So if you like onsen, most likely, this is a place to go.

    Lovely traditional Ryokan with meals cooked and served sitting on the tatami floor around an Irori sunken fire. The staff attended to cooking the various courses over the hot coals and even breakfast was cooked this way. It was delicious and a great experience. Nice onsen and lovely staff and nostalgic old building.
