這是個傳奇的旅館,不只招待過皇族及無數名人,還有G7 也是在這裡舉行。我與祖母30年前曾來這裡用餐,因此這次帶女兒來這裡重溫記憶。他們的服務無可倫比,在在凸顯日本傳統的款待精神。房間寬大且舒適加上美景,讓我們幾乎不想離開房間去觀光。重點在他們的米其林餐廳La Mer, 和我記憶中的一樣好吃。 Club house 裡有一間茶室「愚庵」很值得一看。

It's an amazing hotel
Kumakyon from Japan (16 February 2025)
前回の宿泊で気に入って、2度目の滞在。 何故かしら、時間がゆったりと流れているような感覚になる寛ぎを感じさせてくれるホテルです。 前回は旅の予定を詰め込んでしまっていた為、チェックインも遅くアウトは早くしなければならず、非常にもったいない気がしたので、今回は早く入りゆっくりチェックアウト出来るように計画を立てての滞在でした。 広い窓の向こうに広がる英虞湾の複雑な入り江の景色は美しい~ 食事も最高! 伊勢近辺は食材の宝庫として有名なので、ちょっと張り切って贅沢な和懐石を予約。 夫は旅館の夕食で出て来る懐石料理が嫌いで、日頃は食事の途中で機嫌が悪くなってくるのです。...
