Ryokan Sumiya Kihoan offers a hot spring bath and a hot tub, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Kameoka, 13 km from Oyamazumi Shrine. This 4-star ryokan offers a lift and free shuttle service. There is a restaurant serving Japanese cuisine, and free private parking is available. The staff were wonderful - we had to reorganize our check-in time several times, and they were really nice and helpful. They even helped us send our luggage straight to Tokyo and were very attentive about a gluten allergy one of us has. The food was a solid 10 out of 10. We had an outstanding dinner and a traditional Japanese breakfast with all the small, beautifully presented dishes.

The ryokan serves a vegetarian and vegan breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. This place is absolutely marvelous as located in beautiful temple. Everything was perfect: we were greatly welcomed, the room was incredible. The breakfast was delicious. Many thanks to our host that was so kind and so helpful (parking space, cleaning up our luggage...etc). This is a place that we wish we could stay longer!
