Ryokan bersejarah
Penginapan yang sudah lama berdiri dan bangunan warisan dengan sejarah yang terdokumentasi.
85 ryokan
Jepang memiliki penginapan yang dikelola keluarga yang sama selama berabad-abad, serta ryokan di bangunan yang terdaftar sebagai properti budaya. Kategori ini mengumpulkan yang sejarahnya terdokumentasi — tahun berdiri, pendaftaran warisan budaya, tamu terkenal — bukan sekadar klaim pemasaran soal 'tradisi'.
Sejarah datang dengan konsekuensi yang diungkapkan terus terang oleh pengulas Jepang: bangunan kayu meneruskan suara, koridor dan tangga jarang bebas hambatan, kamar bisa dingin di musim dingin, dan kamar mandi lama berukuran kecil. Sebagian kamar warisan tidak menerima anak-anak atau ditutup berkala untuk pelestarian.
Setiap laporan memisahkan bagian yang benar-benar tua dari yang dibangun ulang, dan memberi tahu kamar mana yang berada di sayap bersejarah — sering kali justru alasan untuk memesan, dan kadang harganya lebih tinggi.
