Minshuku Momofuku — Hotel in Shingu

This ryokan is small with only 2 guest suites.However, the suites were large with a sitting area and a sleeping area.

The shared seating allowed for interesting conversation with the other house guests.||We would definitely recommend this Ryokan and if you like fishing, the owner is an...

We saw many hikers waiting for a bus to take them back to Hongu so we were thrilled we had accommodation at this lovely little minshuku for the evening. ||||It was clean and tidy, the owner Hide was great and very friendly and hospitable.
