Mikasa

This was a treat experience as part of our Japanese tour de force. The property was fine, perhaps getting close to a refurb. The staff were excellent in terms of service and guiding us around making any cultural faux pas. The highlights were obviously the first bath experience (a little nerve racking at first but it was quiet so all sorted itself out) and the evening meal. The quality and variety of dishes was extraordinary and the detailed menu (instruction manual for us uninitiated) was excellent. Breakfast was another culinary experience but we would have appreciated another “menu” as we have no idea what we ate..... still here so nothing bad! I wouldn’t say that we are immediate converts to a futon bed, but we slept Ok and could get used to it. We are soft Westerners after all.

As above.

We were Americans and they assumed that we would want to eat out meal at a western style table. We would have preferred a Japanese style table closer to the ground and more jappanese traditional.

The hotel is very old style.
